Sud Tirol (Alto Adige) is the most northern region of Italy, situated along the Austrian border. While this is still Italy, most inhabitants speak German, with Italian as a second language. The region is dotted with over 400 castles, manor houses and stately residences. I snapped this one while out for a Sunday drive. Thanks for viewing and leaving a comment.

The castle stands high above the valley and looks like a fortress. Nice find and very good capture Doug.

You've used again an excellent vantage point / angle to capture this wonderful castle Doug.

With over 400 castles, manor houses and stately residences, you have still some work to do my friend, LOL!!!

Thanks for this very fine one!

OMG, Doug, I felt a bit of vertigo! That looks like one steep hill! Your summer place, per chance?

Doug, what are you waiting for ?! I am repeating what for?! :)
Please take your camera [-s] if you have more than one and set out on a trip at once ! And do not dare to come back without the images of all the "400 castles, manor houses and stately residences"!
Seriously, even if you don't comply with my polite request, you will be forgiven - this one is just breath taking in terms of location and appearance.
Thanks, dear friend.

I love these old castles, because in addition to being beautiful and majestic, they keep themselves a lot of history, legends of the past.
This photography is very beautiful and I except that mark it as "favorite" it, I downloaded for my desktop.
