Places to see in ( Galicia - Spain ) Santa Tecla Celtic Village
The settlers in Monte de Santa Tecla established a culture of hill forts, of which numerous remains still survive. This settlement was discovered in 1913 during building works for a new road. There is a predominance of circular constructions, although there are also oval and square structures with a Roman influence.
A Guarda is the most southerly coastal town in Galicia and the history of a settlement at this location dates back at least 2000 years. Although the town is becoming increasingly popular with tourists.
it is probably A Guarda's it is probably A Guarda's large and carefully restored castro, the Castro de Santa Tecla discovered in 1913, for which the town is best known. The castro complex also has a museum and visitor centre plus some trinket shops and market stalls, the latter in poor and tacky taste.

San Remo, Italy - Must See Places - Things to see in San Remo
San Remo is a beautiful town on the west coast of Italy. It's in the province of Liguria. San Remo is the capital town of the Riviera dei Fiori or Riviera of Flowers.

San Remo is full of gardens, great architecture and gorgeous vistas. The clean sea and the sandy beaches of San Remo are perfect for spending pleasant hours with the family.
Things to do and see in San Remo:
The Casino of San Remo has always been one of the main attractions of the town. Built in 1905 this large white building stands out proudly, enticing those who wish to try their luck. The casino was designed in its current Art-Nouveau style by the French architect Eugenio Ferret.
The San Remo Music Festival is worth checking out if you’re in the city of San Remo during the dates the festival occurs. The competition takes place inside of the Ariston Theatre.
La Pigna, the Pinecone, is the oldest part of the city. The district of La Pigna dates back to the 11th century. La Pigna's tiny streets and covered alleyways wind up the hill to the gardens and sanctuary at the top. A labyrinth of secret shortcuts, stacked houses, tunnels and narrow passages, leading to the highest point of the city, the Sanctuary of the Madonna della Costa.
Madonna della Costa Sanctuary, on the hilltop above La Pigna, can be seen from most places in San Remo and is a symbol of the city. A beautiful cobblestone mosaic dating from 1651 leads the way to the sanctuary. The dome atop the sanctuary was erected between 1770 and 1775.
One of the city's landmarks, a witness to the presence of a Russian community in Sanremo is the Russian Orthodox Church. A church wanted by Tsarina Maria Alexandrovna after her visit in Sanremo and built 30 years after her death in 1913. There are busts representing the king of Italy Vittorio Emanuele III and his wife, Elena of Montenegro, daughter of Nicholas I in front of the church.
The Gardens of Queen Elena are on top of the hill above La Pigna. Created in 1890 are filled with informal clusters of thick trees and idyllic walkways. From there you will love the breathtaking view on the roofs of the old town and the Gulf of Sanremo.
Near the old port of San Remo is the Fort of Santa Tecla. Fort of Santa Tecla in San Remo was between 1864 and 1997 in use as a prison. After being used as a prison for many years and now the fort is being completely renovated and will be used for tourism and cultural purposes.
On the northern corner of Piazza Eroi Sanremesi there are public markets.This covered market is the pulse of San Remo. It offers fruits and vegetables, cheeses, bread, home made pastas, fish and wines. Outside you get (on Thuesday and Saturday) a range of clothing and leather for good prices. With many things to do and see in San Remo, it is a very popular tourist city in Italy. Whether you’re looking for arts, music or history, the city has something for everyone. With its harbor full of restaurants and cafes, San Remo is sure to be a place worth visiting if you’re looking for a great place to spend a day or two.

#1 - Sant' Antonio Taumaturgo
The church of Sant'Antonio Taumaturgo (commonly called the church of Sant'Antonio Nuovo ), is the main religious building of the Borgo Teresiano and of the center of Trieste [1] .
The project of the church dates back to 1808 , but work began only in 1825 . The facade of the building is characterized by six Ionic columns . Still on the main façade, in the attic, there are six statues sculpted by Francesco Bosa in 1842 , depicting Saint Giusto , Saint Sergius , Saint Servolo , Saint Mauro, Saint Eufemia and Saint Tecla. The church is located in the square of the same name, near the Canale Grande .
#2 Temple of Holy Trinity
The Orthodox community in Trieste was established in 1748 but it wasn't until 1751 when Empress Maria Theresa allowed free practice of religion for Orthodox Christians, this prompted immigration of Serbian traders from Herceg Novi, Trebinje and Sarajevo to Trieste.[1] In 1781, the community split into two. The first was Greek community and second, from which there is today's Serbian parish, was the community which embraced the Orthodox South Slavic nations.[1] From 1994[2] up to administrative changes within the dioceses of the Serbian Orthodox Church, the parish in Trieste fell within the Metropolitanate of Zagreb and Ljubljana. Since 2011, it is under the jurisdiction of the Serbian Orthodox Eparchy of Austria and Switzerland.
Emilio Bisi produced sculptures for the facade.

#3 Della Borsa Square
Piazza della Borsa is one of the main squares of Trieste. Also known as the second city square parlor has been the economic centre of the city throughout the 19th century.
Its present name derives from an obvious name due to the mansion built in 1806 by architect Antonio maceratese Mollari to accommodate the activities of stock traders. This building, which distinguishes the square which is one of the most important examples of neoclassical monuments in Trieste, is currently home of the Camera di commercio, industria, artigianato e agricoltura di Trieste, and is also called the old Bag.
In front of the Palace of the Chamber of Commerce a column supporting the stone figure of an emperor. Is the column of Leopold I of Austria whose son, Charles VI, established in Trieste porto franco.
#5 Trieste Roman Theater
Trieste's Roman theater is located in Trieste at the foot of the San Giusto hill , right in the center of the city, on the edge of the old city, between Via Donota and Via del Teatro Romano.
At the time of its construction, the theater was outside the city walls and by the sea, which at that time reached as far as that area. On its steps, built also taking advantage of the natural slope of the hill, from 3,500 to 6,000 spectators could be accommodated, depending on the various sources. The construction of the theater dates back to the end of the 1st century BC and was extended at the beginning of the 2nd century AD Probably it was built by the Trieste Quinto Petronio Modesto , procurator and bells of the emperor Trajan , mentioned in several inscriptions, which according to other sources instead he only took care of renovation work.
Over the centuries the theater was then hidden by the houses that rose above it. Considered lost, it was identified in 1814 by the architect Pietro Nobile , but only in 1938 it was brought to light during the demolition of a part of the old city. The statues and inscriptions found in the excavations are kept at the Lapidario Tergestino at the Castello di san Giusto at the Civico Museo del Castello. Nowadays it is still used occasionally for outdoor summer shows.
