Salvatore De CarmineJune 26, 2015We didn't stay long but the curious architecture of the Basilica caught my eye.
Too many works in this palce at this moment. But it is possible to go up the scaffolds in San Petronio Churc. From there you can shoot beautiful pictures

"A neptune Fountain in all Italian cities makes it not more interesting but it is lovely to see the differences there are in all of them. Clean water to drink and boast with water for everyone, behind."
