Altare della Patria (Altar of the Fatherland)

 


A dear friend of mine, Luigi (that's his name), has just sent me this picture, which he made with his drone. The aerial image shows the "Altare della Patria" (Altar of the Fatherland) and its majesty. It's one of the main Rome's landmarks.  
This large national monument, which was built about 100 years ago to honour the first  king of a unified Italy,  can be reached easily in few minutes on foot or using public transport.

The picture above also shows another important Rome's monument, the Coliseum, with its yellow lights.  

Nice Sunday to all the blogging community!

      My friend, Luigi, really made a great job. It seems he was able to find the good conditions for making photo (right light, without foggy, there weren't many cars, etc.)

    1. I was born in Naples, but I also like Rome and its surroundings, due to the fact that I have been living here since 1991.

      Great to hear your appreciation, Daniele!
