So beautiful to hear anywhere in the city, I can't wait to go back in a few days for Christmas.
I have been afraid of bells for as long as I can remember, but yet, from a distance, I am facinated by them...
Sorry for my english,if it's not enough! The bells of S.Marco is one of the most suggestive peal in italy. is not perfectly tuned, but it is not badly.
Who are interested:

The other bells Cast by Brigozzi and D'adda in a special foundry,build for the occasion in the island of s.elena in 1909
Bell 2: B (h°) weight 2556kg
Bell 3: C sharp (cis') weight 1807kg
Bell 4: D (d') weight 1366kg
Bell 5: E (e') weight 1011kg
just beautiful
damn, must be loud. And is very beautiful.
Il più bel slancio che esista :)
Ah, but to hear them in the distance in this beautiful city is to dream while awake.
great place to go after a long night of drinking the communion wine!
Got to hear them from the ground, but they didn't go when I was up in the tower.
@TheAngelofNight look the cologne tower, is the same of San Marco
@TheAngelofNight don't worry, italian people made it, so there aren't flying parts or flying clappers! and the stuff check the bells every month.
Cast by BARIGOZZI and D'adda...
