GWL Day 12 - Ravenna (140 km)



Location: BlogsAntonio MaurielloVisiting Italy as a Tourist

The GWL - Day 12A day "off" to visit the art city of Ravenna.

It is the city of the Byzantine, in a time when everything was art. Churches with an oriental Orthodox touch were built in this city near Venezia and are now famous for its "mosaici". Scenes were drawn on church walls and floors, using millions of tiny little pieces of colored stone.

A work of art, which took decades to be finished and be passed on into history.
