I have soooooo fallen in love with stone arches... Torri Superiore Ecovillage Almost at the end of the road...the oldest parts of Torri village were constructed over 1000 years ago! Sahayak. Some of the history of this old village...Sahayak. Window and window scene, including cat, have been painted on this wall! Sahayak. The end of the road for this old timer! Sahayak. © Inspiration Unlimited 2008 Sahayak finds that it's about as rustic as it can get...in rural Liguria. Friendly feline adds to the rustic charm...Sahayak asks, who said never to work with children or animals?!!! Sahayak visits Torri, the lower village some 400 metres from Torri Superiore ('upper Torri'). Sahayak snares another door for the door collection! Left: Some of the internal structure of the ecovillage...Sahayak. Above centre: A scene Sahayak chanced across in his meanderings around the area. Above right: Torri Superiore Ecovillage...Sahayak. Above left: Some of the lovely scenery Sahayak captured on his walk to the next village of Collabassa. Above right: Old wine bottles...another gem Sahayak found in the olive groves on one of his walks. The small Italian village of Collabassa, around 2-1/2 hour walk from Torri - as seen by Sahayak. French Alps in background. The Italian hills with olive groves on stone terraces. The French Alps are in the background. Yet another vista captured by Sahayak. In flood after heavy rain the stream than flows through Torri then meanders its way down to the sea. Sahayak. Above and below: scenes by Sahayak - in the village of Torri...just down the hill from Torri Superiore. In a bit of a rush so new pics added on the far right column! Figured better to appear in a disorganised fashion than be delayed for the sake of order:o)
Sahayak captures the ecovillage at night (above), while Maia captures a night close up below. From one of the many hillsides, Sahayak gets a bird's eye view of Torri, the lower village, with Torri Superiore (ecovillage) at the back on the right. Cobble stones by Sahayak. |
