Brisighella

I know I'm way behind, so here's some more of Italy. 

We traveled to Brisighella, a small town about half-hour southwest of Forli. We loved going to these small, picturesque towns, without any other tourists around. It was a piece of Italy not many tourists see. 

A fountain in the park.

A WWI memorial, but I thought it looked like an old lady.

This odd street is called Via degli Asini (Donkey's Road). The Donkeys stayed in stables (you can see a door on the left), and they carried chalk to the end of the street. The road was covered so the chalk would not get wet from the rain, snow, etc.

Several businesses now occupy the stables.

Perched high above the town is the Torre dell'Orologio (Clock Tower). Built in the 1800's on an already existing defensive structure. For whatever reason, the clock cycles every six hours.

Incredible view of the Italian countryside.
