1107. Colle delle Finestre (el. 2178 m.) is a mountain pass in the Alps, in the Italian reigion of Piemonte, Italy, linking Susa Valley and Cisone Valley. The road was built around 1700 to gain access to the fortresses in the zone, mainly the Forte di Fenestrelle. The road serves as tourist attraction although the last 8 kilometres of the road from Susa are not asphalted. From Susa the mountain pass is 18,6 kilometres long at an average of 9,1% (height gain: 1694 m), the maximum gradient being 12%.

1108. Sassi di Matera, Basilicata.
The Sassi di Matera (meaning "stones of Matera") are prehistoric cave dwellings in the Italian city of Matera, the "Sassi" grew in the area of Murgia Plateau, extended between Apulia and Basilicata. The Sassi originate from a prehistoric (troglodyte) settlement, and are suspected to be some of the first human settlements in Italy, its houses dug into the tuff rock itself, which is characteristic of Basilicata and Puglia. Many of these "houses" are really only caverns, and the streets in some parts of the Sassi often are located on the rooftops of other houses. The ancient town grew in height on one slope of the ravine created by a river that is now a small stream. The ravine is known locally as "la Gravina".

1109. Piazza dell'Anfiteatro it's one of the most beautiful and famous squares in Lucca (Tuscany). The square was built on the ancient Roman amphitheater site and still retains it's oval shape. During the middle ages, buildings were built around the arena but parts of the original construction can still be seen. Today the piazza is ringed with cafes, restaurants, and shops and during July there are music performances.

The Muzza Canal (length: km 60,6) in Lombardy, Italy is one of the oldest European irrigation canals, excavated between 1220 and 1230 on Imperial decree by Lodi townspeople. It begins in Cassano d'Adda, and delivers Adda River water to a wide agricultural area. (from wikipedia) ![]() source: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/24954264
