Lock Down The Twenty Eighth Day

The 28th Day.
Spring is here, with the pleasant temperature of 21°C, many people are tempted to get out of the house to have a nice walk, but please refrain yourself, we are in a lockdown.



The other day on the way back (The same day I went to the paharmacy), passed by a small street leading to the piazza Castello, the symbol of Turin, La Mole could be seen afar behind the Royal Theatre. Is almost a month that I have not seen her. Is just like seeing an old friend, I stopped for a minute and greeted her by looking at her.
At the piazza, the tents setup by the TV station can be seen, they are there to report about the current situation in the local news everyday.



The road that I have teken was via XX Settembre, it is a long road, leading all the way towards the main station. The shops were almost all closed. Occasionally, a few people walked passed, and very few would stopped and took a look at the dark windows of the shops.


The once busy and heavy traffic road has now becomes a long and lonely road....


Location : via XX Settembre/Via Palazzo di Città/Piazza Castello

Glad you had at least a glimpse of La Mole. The landmarks of our lives...not as easily visible.

It feels ghostly.
