A pleasant walking tour in the pedestrian city center, having the chance to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of a provincial town which will fascinate you for its incredible treasures. Ravenna will unveil itself little by little, showing all its beauty kept hidden by simple bricks. Humble outside, but rich inside, thanks to the mosaics, as the Christian, rich inside because of the soul. You will plunge into the past experiencing a time without time, feeling to be part of something greater. This will enrich your eyes, your spirit.
The itinerary includes: - Basilica of Saint Vitale, one of the most important monuments of Early Christian art in Italy. The influence of oriental art plays a dominant role both for the architecture and for the mosaics of the basilica. - Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, a Roman building with a latin cross plan built around 425-450 by the empress Galla Placidia as her own resting place. The dome with the golden stars will deeply stir your imagination as happened to Cole Porter who was so impressed to write his famous song Night and Day. - Tomb of Dante Alighieri, the great poet, father of the Italian language. - Crypt of Basilica of Saint Francis, permanently under water, offers a suggestive view of mosaic pavement. - Basilica of Saint Apollinare Nuovo, the Palatine Church of Arian religion built by Theoderic (493-526), the King of the Ostrogoths. - Mosaic workshop, to have a demonstration of mosaic-making technique. -This tour as a whole or partially, can be customized to fit your preferences - please inquire!
