Sant'Eufemia Church

Verona, Italy

The church of Sant'Eufemia is an ancient church in Verona. A church at the site was likely present by the 11th or 12th centuries, although the main layout we see today was completed only in the 14th century. In the interior, altarpieces were completed by Brusasorci and Giovanni Domenico Cignaroli. In the 14th century Spolverini chapel, there is a canvas and frescos by Giovanni Francesco Caroto. The gothic belltower contains six bells in F rung with the Veronese bellringing art.

You have to pay ticket to get inside, you might accept offer from Pellegrini and not charge the entrance. Shame!

One of the Most Incredible Catholic churches I ever visited, and I visit lot of churches, through my journeys along the years. It is truly Good mood out and inside, even if you're not a Catholic, you will feel the presence of God inside. The beauty of the Arts.. More than an Art museum, and it's a Local Church.. All and All, the Believers are nice and Welcoming, the Priests are inviting and curious where you're coming from. Highly recommend

Fantastic church in Verona. I loved exploring and enjoyed th silence and quiet of the place. I also liked the attention to the sanitisation of the space.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
