Italien, In Malcesine(TN) am Gardasee.
Der Gardasee (italienisch Lago di Garda oder Bènaco), einer der oberitalienischen Seen, ist der größte See Italiens, benannt nach der Gemeinde Garda am Ostufer. Sein antiker Name lautete von etwa 200 v. Chr. bis 800 n. Chr. Lacus benacus. Der Name soll von einer alten Gottheit namens Benacus abstammen.
Malcesine ist eine norditalienische Gemeinde am Ostufer des Gardasees in der Provinz Verona mit 3689 Einwohnern (Stand 31. Dezember 2019).
Malcesine wird häufig als „Perle des Gardasees“ bezeichnet. Mit diesem Begriff werden jedoch oft auch andere Orte wie Riva del Garda oder Limone sul Garda in Verbindung gebracht. Der Ort ist stark vom Tourismus geprägt.

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.

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.
