20th Sept 16 - Ravenna, Italy
Went to see the mosaics.

Started in the Basilica di St Vitale. These wonderful mosaics date from c525 AD - so around 1500 years old |
|
Exterior of Basilica di St Vitale. |

More mosaics from the 5th century in Galla Placidia's Mausoleum |
|
|
Basilica - Saint Apollinare Nuovo - is also from the 5th/6th Century. I particularly liked this mosaic of the Three Kings |
|
These cyclists with feathered hats caught our eye. |
