#289 Sunrise over the Alps ☀🏔 | 日照雪山

I took this picture in a plane shortly after it took off from the airport of Turin, Italy. I had to get up very early to catch the flight, but it was worth it when I got to see this fantastic view: the snow-capped Alps and other landscapes were bathing in the golden rays of sunrise. Torino is the first capital city of Italy, best known for its stately baroque buildings, grand squares and... the aperitivo! :)

那年冬天一个冷飕飕的清晨，天还没亮，我起了个大早去从意大利都灵机场赶飞机，登机时正好赶上日出。起飞后不久，从飞机上俯拍到下面这日照雪山的景色。

梅里雪山有名的日照金山还没有亲眼见过，倒是有幸在阿尔卑斯、安第斯山脉和靠近南极的巴塔哥尼亚多次近距离见过类似的美景。而现在回想起来，这次从飞机上拍到的，跟后来那些跋山涉水、历经艰险之后近距离看到的日照雪山比起来，真是得来全不费工夫啊（除了从温暖的被窝里挣扎着爬起来摸黑赶去机场这一点点小牺牲）。经历不同却又殊途同归，很有意思。

顺便提一下意大利北部名城都灵，离时尚之都米兰很近，曾是意大利历史上的第一个正式首都。城内随处可见雄伟庄严的巴洛克式建筑和规模宏大的广场。还有意大利文化中不可或缺的餐前酒aperitivo也是起源于这里。对于我这种路痴来说，它棋盘式的城市布局还是蛮容易找到方向的，呵呵。正好我最先去的意大利城市就是米兰和都灵，每天都可以轻松无压力地找回住处，还沾沾自喜一番，直到后来去了意大利南部的那些地方，才发现真是迷路没商量~。:)

旅行圣经Lonely Planet今年评出的世界十大旅游地区的top 1就是都灵作为首府所在的Piedmont区。下面我拍的书中插图就能看到雪山和都灵的地标 —— 安托内利尖塔（Mole Antonelliana），这座塔以他的建筑师命名，建于19世纪晚期，高达167.5 米，曾是世界最高的砖石建筑，如今塔内的国家电影博物馆也是世界最高的博物馆。意大利欧元硬币2分的背后图案就是这座都灵塔，Steem上的朋友victory622的主页背景图里也有都灵的这个地标。
