Castles of Bellinzona are described just so by tourist afficionados:

A fortress since Roman times, Bellinzona is strategically situated on a valley-floor and a natural nexus to such great Alpine passes as the Gotthard, San Bernadino, Novena and Lucomagno. Placed such, smack in the middle of the ancient road from Germany to Italy, sealed its geographic importance and factious future. The three castles and fortifications of the market town of Bellinzona, in the Swiss canton of Ticino, have been named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Now, that sounds inviting, doesn't it? Sad thing is, I visited only two of the castles and the few pictures which I hope to express the feeling of there, because we have it right here, only with the model Laura.

Posing in the castle behind the hotel where we were staying, Laura sharing her outfit with you, who has just bought it. It was a difficult shooting because Laura was wearing very thin, and outside was cold. I posed after midnight and low light conditions was a disadvantage. Even so, we enjoyed the last night spent in Bellinzona and was a pleasant experience to go to a castle at night alone.

Welcome to Bellinzona, Maties!
