Sun: Bellinzona



On our way back home with drove on the A1 in Italy and just before you get to Milan, there is a fantastic Santiago Calatrava bridge spanning the autostrada (unfortunately, I cannot find a suitable photo and we weren’t able to take one either =( We have passed Bellinzona several times on our way back from Italy and have never stopped, so lunchtime looming we stopped for a bite and to check out the town. The city is famous for its three castles (Castelgrande, Montebello, Sasso Corbaro) that are now part of the UNESCO world heritage. We didn’t realize we would need so much time to explore and made a note to make a return visit. Here are the pictures.
