In the heart of the Mediterranean lies Italy, a country that has shaped the cultural and historical landscape of Europe like no other. With its roots delving deep into the heart of ancient Rome, Italy has been the cradle of Western civilization and a center of global culture for centuries. Modern Italy, unified in 1861, stretches from the snow-capped Alps in the north to the sun-kissed shores of Sicily in the south.

<p>The building was constructed under the name Casa Littoria, the local headquarters of the Fascist Party. The building is an example of Italian rationalist architecture, designed by Alziro Bergonzo with decorations by Leone Lodi. Today, the building houses offices (including the Prefecture) and, in its central core, a cinema/auditorium. It has undergone recent restoration and redevelopment to become a cultural centre that includes spaces for cinema, art and culture.</p>

<p>From small landscapes to BIG landscapes (x6 shot pano), and they do not come much bigger than the mighty Piz Boe. <br />
<br />
This is my first image shared from a fabulous 2 week holiday in northern Italy, based in Garda. <br />
<br />
It is taken from the equally spectacular Sassolungo which we ascended via a cable car from Selva, and another Terry Roberts recommendation. <br />
<br />
Piz Boè is the highest mountain of the Sella group, a mountain range in the Dolomites, Italy. It has an elevation of 3,152 metres (10,341 ft).<br />
<br />
Located in the heart of the Dolomites, the mountain has a beautiful pyramid summit. Its popularity has increased as it is thought of as the easiest 3000m summit to reach in the Dolomites, and can get overcrowded in the summer.[3] It lies just above the Pordoi Pass. Due to its location, most of the major Dolomiten peaks are visible from its summit. © Wikipedia<br />
