Last week I wrote about a wonderful holiday I had in Austria (Europe); Whilst we were there we took a trip to Northern Italy to see the magical mountain range of The Dolomites (part of the Alps).
The Brenner Pass is a pass throgh the Alps , it forms a border between Austria and Italy;
It is one of the principal passes of the Eastern Alpine range.

We stopped at a most stunning sight it was of Lake Carezza; It has a beautiful backdrop of Pine trees and The Dolomites.

We were heading for the City of Bolzana, in the heart of the Alps. it has a most interesting history which will saved for another time.
Note the beautiful architecture.

It was one of the most lovely parts of Europe that I have visited. It was so perfect almost like a theme park but even better. I am known for my prolific memory (I'm affectionately known as Mrs Elephant by family and friends)! Good to remember lovely things but not good to remember horrid things!

OMG! SO beautiful...this is one of the reasons I wish I lived in England - it's so close (relatively) to go on trips like this in Europe. Before I can even start, I have to fly over an entire continent and an ocean...tres cher, mon amie! So glad you were able to make such wonderful memories here.

Glad you appreciate the beauty of one of my favourite parts of Europe. It's about a two and a half hour flight from Liverpool.
DeleteWe can also drive via the Euro Tunnel, which is a doddle for France so we've done that a few times too,
love Di xx

Magnificent photography of a gorgeous place ~ the Alps are always awesome to me too ~ Brenner pass ~ great shot
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy Week Ahead ~ ^_^
Hi Carol, truly a gorgeous place, I think what makes it so special is that little has changed in 50 years since i was there,
DeleteThe Austrians still wear their national costumes and still play and sing their traditional folk songs,,,more to come next week,

Lucky to visit such wonderful places with so much beauty around!
ReplyDeleteYes we are well situated for all of Europe with our local airport (10 mins drive) can get us to Austria in 2+ hours.
DeleteAustria is such a gem, it's such a small country yet every town, village and city takes such pride in their architecture and general appearance. In all the touristy places the local people don their national dress, The scenery is breathtaking.

I know this region very well ! for 15 years each year we drove to the Garda lake where my husband is coming from over the Brenner pass to visit the family ! Yes it is a beautiful area !
ReplyDeleteHello Gattina,
DeleteI have Lake Garda on my hit list another beautiful place to visit, We travelled over the Brenner Pass in a Hail stone storm, fortunately it was clear on the trip back, I hope we can go back one day,

Honestly, Trubes, every single photograph here drew a gasp and an "OH MY GOODNESS" whisper of awe. Austria! Italy! I confess my envy of world travellers. I've never made it happen. (Just one trip to England/Scotland in '87). Such sights to see and I'm not getting younger (as far as I know) :) Many thanks - I've been prodded by a few lately and this post sure adds another impetus to figure out a way to see more of the world.
