Statue of St Francis, Assisi

 

You've got it! The Basilica of St. Francis Assisi is just to the right, out of the picture.

 

This statue, created by Norberto from Spello, just south of Assisi, is reputed to be of the young Francis returning home from military campaign (although I can't confirm that). More usual shots show the statue from the side with the facade of the church in the background.

 

Your turn!

Your hint was a little bit misleading!;)

Assisi is further north than Catalunia!

I guess you're right. I didn't look on a globe. Somehow I've always thought of Italy being on the same latitude as Spain and then comparing northern Spain to central Italy. Hope this didn't throw you too far off base. ;)

That is correct, these hangars are are the Riga Central market, one of Europes largest markets. The hangars were constructed in 1924-1930 and are made with reuse metal frameworks from WWI German Zeppelin hangars. The construction has been included in UNESCO World Heritage Site list.
