  3. This photo got me confused for a split second as I thought it was somewhere in Japan or china but the architecture seems to have a little european flavor to the asian themes - so I guess it could be a euroasian building =)

  4. well this is my 27th city visit today [Ok I started last night and have been to bed and you are the third this morning] and the variety is amazing, and some amusing comments too -- which means I'll have to review them all again tomorrow!

  5. Lovely shot. I enlarged the photo and saw that most of the people look Chinese - so I'm guessing it's in Beijing.

  6. It must be Beijing. I like your photograph. It is impressive.

    My Theme Day is of a city unto itself, with its own zip code, and a portrait of the "Peashooter" at the National Museum of the United States Air Force. Hope you like flying.

  9. Hi Fabrizio, I am searching for a new camera and almost decided on Nikon D40. I looked up on your Nikon D200. Salesman told me, that yours is a professional camera and if I am a beginner I should go for D40. Of course there is a big price difference...What would you suggest?
    Btw, thanks for commenting on my 100'th post. :)

  10. Yes, taht's a good question... i guess Torino doesn't own such a temple... so i veoted for Beijing!

  11. Fabrizio - having never visited either Torino of Beijing, I could not tell on my own. However, when I enlarge the image I see that the faces are Asian so I will go with Beijing.

    You must have visited there. My wife and I are going to China for the first time in about four months. If you remember any particularly good photo locations, I would appreciate your advice.

  14. Stunning photo! I love panaromic view of the palace.

    I'm hoping to go to China this summer. *fingers crossed*

  15. Good question! I'd think it's Beijing but if it's Torino I'll be even more impressed.

  17. The Heaven Temple is in Beijin and it's the most exciting temple I visited there (in 2002) even more than the Fobidden City.

    Strangetastes, I visited only Beijin and Xi'ian (terracotta warriors). In Beijin, a part, as said, Heaven Temple, I loved the Old City Garden, place Tien 'Anmen, Forbidden City, the Great Wall (where you can go renting a taxi from Beijin and it's not expensive at all) and zoo where I saw Panda :-) -- This in short those interesting places I visited but China and their way of life is a discover in every little town you have way to cross.

    Ehm Isabella, I may try to convince Major of Torino to built a copy here but I'm afraid he won't listen my prays :-(
