Description
Oggi una foto , sempre anni 70 , dove si vede un pò della mia città , Viareggio. Ricordo questa foto perchè in quei tempi tutti cominciarono a usare supergradangolari e io mi ero appena regalato un Soligor 21mm e stavo vagando per trovare un soggetto adatto. Ero sul molo e mi colpì la visione di questi ragazzi alla prese con il gioco preferito dei ragazzi di allora : costruzioni con la sabbia. Sempre la Pentax KX che mi ha seguito fino al digitale ( funziona ancora ).
Today a photo, always 70 years, where we see a bit 'of my city Viareggio. I remember this picture because in those days they began to use supergradangolari and I had just got a Soligor 21mm and I was wandering to find a suitable subject. I was on the pier and struck me watching these guys to grips with the game of choice for boys since: buildings with sand. Also the Pentax KX that has followed me up to digital (still works).
Viareggio is a town in central Italy, situated in north-west. With more than 64,000 inhabitants is the second largest municipality in the Province of Lucca, the first after the capital.
The city was born in the first half of the sixteenth century when it was the only window to the sea for the Republic of Lucca. In this period was the oldest building citizen, Matilde Tower, defensive fortification built in 1541 from Viareggio to counter the constant threat of raids by Barbary pirates.
Viareggio is known not only as places of tourist resort, for the Carnival, born in 1873, with its majestic papier-mâché floats that parade along the "walk to the sea." The Mask of the Carnival of Viareggio is Burlamacco, invented in 1930 by Uberto Bonetti. During the event, of great importance, there are also side local parties that take place basically from Friday to Sunday.
From an artistic point of view, Viareggio is known for its eclectic architecture, Art Nouveau and Art Deco and for the city of artists like Lorenzo Viani, Uberto Bonetti, Alfredo Catarsini, Renato Santini, Mario Marcucci, Inachus Biancalana, Galileo Chini and Alfredo Belluomini.
The city is an industrial center and crafts, especially in shipbuilding, long known throughout the world. It is also known for its fisheries and floriculture.
Viareggio is home to many events and awards including the Premio Viareggio literary Repaci, established in 1929, the Premio Viareggio Sports was established in 1985 and World Cup Tournament Viareggio Carnival, established in 1949.
It is also important to remember the Festival Gaber, in memory of Giorgio Gaber, attended by prominent artists of the Italian music scene (since 2004).
Viareggio is also known in the historical-religious, among the most significant events of those of St. Anthony Mary Pucci and Clelia Merloni.
The city is also known for having given birth to Marcello Lippi, the coach of the national Italian football winning the world title in 2006.

Perhaps they are digging for buried pirate gold on the beach. Wonderful panorama of sea and sky and mountains. Forse stanno scavando per l'oro dei pirati sepolte sulla spiaggia. Splendido panorama del mare e del cielo e le montagne.
