St. Clare's Basilica, Assisi


At the opposite end of Assisi from St. Francis' Basilica lies St. Clare's Basilica.  Below, you can see a Franciscan friar with a group of pilgrims outside St. Clare's:


Unlike St. Francis' Basilica, St. Clare's didn't seem anything special inside, but outside, the wing-like structures on the side of the Basilica were very striking:



Moreover, St. Clare's was well positioned to get some good panoramic shots of Assisi:



Was really happy to have a zoom here.  Not sure if I'll ever get back to Assisi, but at least I'll always have my pictures to remember the place.  It really was a wonderful tranquil place where time kind of stands still.
