Galleria Metropolitan

Galleria Metropolitan, via Marradi, Livorno
We have already seen this building, but now the part I called modern alley is complete with its final color. It somewhat keeps reminding me of the Siq, the main entrance to the ancient city of Petra.

Hope to visit the Siq for the first time next month and then I'll be able to compare!

A gorgeous alley and I have to say that I love the color!

The color is rich and the architecture is adventurous. I kind of like it, but I often find I need to withhold judgement for a while with new architecture and let my senses adjust.

Wonderful design.

Wow! How unique! That can bring all kinds to feelings, can't it! I wonder how people who get motion sickness would feel here.... :\

Unlike the blue parking, this is pretty nice. I've never been to Petra but I've seen (and posted) photos so yes, but you'd need some cats there.

Livorno and Petra should be twinned.

Yes, just put some tourists on horses in the alley and you have the red Siq.
