A view from above..

Sorry for the month of no posting, life has been pretty hectic lately. Anyhow, this is a view of Bologna from the top of one of the few remaining towers.  I was standing on the top of the Torre di Prendiparte, and in the distance you can see the two towers Bologna is famous for, the Asinelli and the Garisenda. The Asinelli is the taller of the two and you can climb it for a beautiful view of the city, but the Garisenda is leaning too much to allow people to climb up.

  1. Beautiful photo of a beautiful city. Is this the Leaning tower of Garisenda and is it related to the Leaning tower of Pisa?

  2. What a beatiful sight of brick red tones!

  3. The tallest tower really looks like its keening over, getting ready to tumble!
