Ravenna Gallery

Here are photos taken in Ravenna. I found this town truly fascinating. Despite the crowd of tourists it is still worthy to visit. I fully agree with the arguments by UNESCO: A unique collection of early Christian mosaics and monuments show great artistic skill, including a wonderful blend of Graeco-Roman tradition, Christian iconography and oriental and Western styles.

We started at 9:30 with a ride from Passo Pordoi to Rifugio Maria Sas de Pordoi and we started our walk from there. As the ride with a funicular railway is available to everybody the mountain hut was crowded.

Why Ravenna Is Fascinating?
