Along the Walls

Fortezza Nuova, Livorno
One more ramp brings you up to the level of the walls with a view on the area of Piazza Garibaldi.

You can walk along the battlements and even reach one of the turrets above the entrance.

On the other side a wide meadow offers you a view on Scali delle Cantine and the basin of the Fosso Reale.

    The first photo reminds me of pini di Roma. I've seen only in Italy this species of pine.

    Green spaces in the city are so valuable for the well-being of people.

    It's essentially a park, isn't it? Those large green spaces are wonderful to have for the use of both young and old. From what I see in that second shot, the brick work is still in good shape.

    Looks like people of all ages are enjoying it now that it's open again. That's great!

    I like parks and places to relax.
    I also like the sound of the name GARIBALDI :)
