Siena
is a city in the Italian region of Tuscany. The city has a population of about 54,000 inhabitants. Siena began as an Etruscan settlement under Roman power. In the 12th century it became an independent city with its own government. There were traditionally struggles between Siena and Florence during the middle age and the renaissance.

The 40th year of a Medieval Festival called Festa de Autunno- Palio di Valfabbrica in Umbria where there are week long celebrations culminating in a parade with heraldic rituals dating to the 13th century then a Palio race. The town is very small and all of the people in the parade and I think a play on the main street were local in the most magnificent costumes. The four of us were the only tourists in the village. We joined them for their community lunch, enjoyed the parade then went to the local sports grounds for the jousting event (Palio) . Wow! What fun :-) Horse images later :-) Not easy to capture the images in a parade :-)

"The Old Town Hall in Bamberg is one of the most important buildings that characterize the historic city center. It is located between the mountain and island towns in the left arm of the Regnitz. This location…
"...marks the old border between the episcopal mountain town and the bourgeois island town and clearly shows the Bamberg bourgeoisie's striving for power."
The landmark is built into the Regnitz River, with the Upper and Lower Bridges (originally a private bridge) leading away from it. Inside, the Ludwig porcelain collection belonging to the museums of the city of Bamberg is on display, one of the largest of its kind in Europe.
The town hall was first mentioned in 1387 and was rebuilt between 1461 and 1467 so that it took on its current appearance. During this construction phase it was mainly influenced by the Gothic period.
Johann Jakob Michael Küchenl redesigned the town hall between 1744 and 1756 in the Baroque and Rococo styles. Worth mentioning are the facade paintings originally created by Johann Anwander in 1755, which have been restored many times. After there was no longer much of this painting to be seen in the 1950s, the painter Anton Greiner repainted it between 1959 and 1962. Both sides of the building are fully decorated with recreated allegorical scenes and architectural details, the typical illusion painting of this period. Small, actually figurative elements on the eastern side reinforce the spatial impression. If you look closely, you can see a figurative leg of a putti protruding from the mural. This creates the illusion of a multi-perspective figure. The rococo balconies and coat of arms reliefs come from Jos. Bonaventura Mutschele.
The half-timbered house attached to the bridge tower, the Rottmeisterhäuschen, served as accommodation for the leaders of the guards.
The German Red Cross was founded on January 25, 1921 in the Rococo Hall. A memorial plaque in the passage of the old town hall commemorates its founding.
Bamberg (/ˈbæmbɜːrɡ/, US also /ˈbɑːmbɛərk/, German: [ˈbambɛʁk]; East Franconian: Bambärch) is a town in Upper Franconia district in Bavaria, Germany, on the river Regnitz close to its confluence with the river Main. Bamberg had 79,000 inhabitants in 2022. The town dates back to the 9th century, when its name was derived from the nearby Babenberch castle. Cited as one of Germany's most beautiful towns, with medieval streets and buildings, the old town of Bamberg has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993.
From the 10th century onwards, Bamberg became a key link with the Slav peoples, notably those of Poland and Pomerania. It experienced a period of great prosperity from the 12th century onwards, during which time it was briefly the centre of the Holy Roman Empire. Emperor Henry II was buried in the old town, alongside his wife Kunigunde. The town's architecture from this period strongly influenced that in Northern Germany and Hungary. From the middle of the 13th century onwards, the bishops were princes of the Empire and ruled Bamberg, overseeing the construction of monumental buildings. This growth was complemented by the obtaining of large portions of the estates of the Counts of Meran in 1248 and 1260 by the sea, partly through purchase and partly through the appropriation of extinguished fiefs.
Bamberg lost its independence in 1802, following the secularization of church lands, becoming part of Bavaria in 1803. The town was first connected to the German rail system in 1844, which has been an important part of its infrastructure ever since. After a communist uprising took control over Bavaria in the years following World War I, the state government fled to Bamberg and stayed there for almost two years before the Bavarian capital of Munich was retaken by Freikorps units (see Bavarian Soviet Republic). The first republican constitution of Bavaria was passed in Bamberg, becoming known as the Bamberger Verfassung (Bamberg Constitution).
Following the Second World War, Bamberg was an important base for the Bavarian, German, and then American military stationed at Warner Barracks, until closing in 2014.
Upper Franconia (German: Oberfranken) is a Regierungsbezirk (administrative [Regierungs] region [bezirk]) of the state of Bavaria, southern Germany. It forms part of the historically significant region of Franconia, the others being Middle Franconia and Lower Franconia, which are all now part of the German Federal State of Bayern (Bavaria).
With more than 200 independent breweries which brew approximately 1000 different types of beer, Upper Franconia has the world's highest brewery-density per capita. A special Franconian beer route (Fränkische Brauereistraße) runs through many popular breweries.
The administrative region borders on Thuringia (Thüringen) to the north, Lower Franconia (Unterfranken) to the west, Middle Franconia (Mittelfranken) to the south-west, and Upper Palatinate (Oberpfalz) to the south-east, Saxony (Sachsen) to the north-east and the Czech Republic to the east.
After the founding of the Kingdom of Bavaria the state was totally reorganized and, in 1808, divided into 15 administrative government regions (German: Regierungsbezirke (singular Regierungsbezirk)), in Bavaria called Kreise (singular: Kreis). They were created in the fashion of the French departements, quite even in size and population, and named after their main rivers.
In the following years, due to territorial changes (e. g. loss of Tyrol, addition of the Palatinate), the number of Kreise was reduced to 8. One of these was the Mainkreis (Main District). In 1837 king Ludwig I of Bavaria renamed the Kreise after historical territorial names and tribes of the area. This also involved some border changes or territorial swaps. Thus the name Mainkreis changed to Upper Franconia.
Next to the former episcopal residence city of Bamberg, the capital Bayreuth, the former residence city of Coburg and the classicist centre of Hof, as well as the towns of Lichtenfels, Kronach, Gößweinstein and Kulmbach, the Weißenstein Palace, Banz Abbey and the Basilica of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, the scenic attractions of the River Main and the low mountain ranges of the Fichtel Mountains with the town of Wunsiedel and the Franconian Forest belong among the region's major tourist attractions. There are also numerous spas like Bad Rodach, Bad Steben, Bad Staffelstein, Bad Berneck and Bad Alexandersbad." - info from Wikipedia.

One of scenic spots in Old Town is the view to Jauniela street when looking from Krāmu street. The restaurant on Jauniela 16 is called "1221".
Restaurant 1221 is probably the most photographed facade in Riga. Located in a pleasant blue medieval building, it beautifully serves traditional food.

This is one of my favourite photos from Hampi. Its grand period came at the end of the medieval era, roughly from 1330- 1565. It is situated in what is today northern Karnataka and became the capital of a quickly growing empire. Already in 1370 this empire stretched all the way down to southern India, where the sultanate of Madurai had to give way for Hindu rulers once again.
In those days, another name of the city was Vijayanagara, which means "City of Victory". This name is more than reflected by the fantastic architecture, of which a lot is still there or restored to old glory.
That morning I just came back from my shooting to catch the medieval village of Sancerre before dawn, taking all my stuff before carrying on my road trip in the center of France. Just when I opened the window to admire the view, I have had the surprise to see these two air balloons above the vineyards and a superb sky lit by the Sun - still low above the horizon.
