The temple of Portunus, which has also been called Temple of Fortuna Virilis - but the dedication to the harbour-god Portunus is now the generally favoured one. This is one of the best preserved Roman temples there is. The building that still stands dates to around 80-70 B.C. - replacing an older temple on the same spot. The temple survived because it was converted to a church (St. Mary - in around 872) and in the 16th century it was given to an order of Armenian monks who kept it in reasonable good shape.
Manarola is a small town, a frazione of the comune of Riomaggiore, in the province of La Spezia, Liguria, northern Italy. It is the second-smallest of the famous Cinque Terre towns frequented by tourists, with a population of 353. We spent there beautiful day in September 2018.

Photo from our 2018 trip to Italy. I don't need to introduce Florence - it's absolutely beautiful city in a stunning country.
It was a glorious early morning at lake Braies in Italy. The sun started to rise giving the mountain ridge a golden glow. The lake is completely still appearing almost like a mirror offering the perfect reflection.
