Walking along the streets in my city (Pistoia, Italy)

in #hive-14844112 days ago

Hello hivers, an happy Thursday to you all!
This morning I had to go to the postal office to send some artworks I sold days ago, so I thought to take my camera with me to take pics of some corners of my city.
As you know, I live in a small city called Pistoia in the Tuscany region (Italy). Pistoia is a typical Italian medieval city (maybe you remember the pics I shared with you about the medieval event just few months ago) and it's a little similar to Florence (that's not so far from us).

There are a lot of ancient buildings, museums and also many examples of contemporary art. I live out of the center of the city (just to know, Pistoia is so small that we can walk just 30 minutes to go from a side to the other side 😊 ) and so I can enjoy the ancient streets like the green areas all around my home.
You can read more about our history here.

The municipality started to work on the Christmas decoration and so one of the first things I watched this morning was a large star in front of the beautiful Renaissance arcaded loggia (1502) of the old hospital called Ospedale del Ceppo:

A couple of corners in the main square (you can see the Dome entrance):

A beautiful piece of streetart :

Well, now I have to come back to my work on art, but I hope you appreciated these few pics of the place where I live. ❤️
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia

You live in a beautiful place that must inspire you. We have a few old buildings here and our Christmas lights are going up too. This year has gone so fast.

My parents are at their place in Italy now to get some warmer weather as it turns colder here.

These sunny day here in Italy are perfect to enjoy to stay here. Give an hugs from me to your parents, dear Steve! ^_^

It's a very beautiful place where you live, it seems that there is a lot of history in that place.

Thanks so much, Jason! ^_^

I love your place, it's very beautiful with lots of cultural history.
