⁣ Canon EOS 250D ⁣ Taken on 23/0//2021.⁣ ⁣ *⁣ Rising over the placid countryside of Cremona is a small village that evokes memories of the past when trade flourished and draped ropes were a common sight.⁣ ⁣ The heart of everything was always the countryside and the Po, which once flowed only 2 km away. Life thrived in the narrow village streets under the 16th century arcades, with taverns, shops and cellars. And the red bricks laid bare under flaking plaster reveal forgotten stories. ⁣ ⁣ There used to be a castle in Castelponzone—now the walls have been flattened and the moats filled, leaving a village that wants to be reborn.⁣ ⁣ Thankfully, Castelponzone has given life to the facades, closed off traffic and restored the original cobblestone paving to allow visitors to experience the history between the parish church and the 18th-century mansion known as the 'villa', with its portico of Doric U columns.⁣ ⁣ The rest are rural houses, often embellished with balconies and flowered windows, immersed in the quiet of the plain, bounded by a ring road that traces the route of the ancient walls.⁣ ⁣ 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲:⁣ ⁣ 🚌 Catch a bus from Cremona (line K213) with the company 'Arriva Italia'.⁣ ______________________________________⁣ ⁣ #Castelponzone #VolgoCremona #Ig_Cremona #Lombardy #Lombardia #VisitLombardia #SiViaggiare_Lombardia #ClickersLombardia #Lombardia_Illife #Lombardia_Mania__ #Italia #Italy #BorghItalia #Loves_United_Lombardia #ItaliaStyle_Lombardia #BestLombardiaPics #TiConsiglioUnBorgo #BorgoDeiBorghi #_Visitalymaps #NoiScattiamo_Italia #Borghi_Oro #Borghi_World #Lombardia_Super_Pics #Shotz_Of_Lombardia #InLombardia #LombardiaDaVedere #Lombardia_Cartoline_ #Lombardia_BorghiECitta #New_PhotoLombardia #InstaLombardia (at Castelponzone) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiaC-xKqV_j/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
