Doors 172 – Holiday doors, Umbria and Tuscany, Italy 2018
I have decided to join in with Dan’s suggestion for this week’s door theme and bring you some of my favourite doors from a holiday we had in Italy in August 2021. You might well have seen these doors before, but I don’t think that matters too much. In these pandemic days we can only dream of future overseas holidays or reflect on holidays past.
I hope you enjoy this selection:












It is actually rather nice to unearth these doors for you and this post inspires me to keep hoping that our trip to Italy in 2018 will not be our last.
If you have made it this far, you probably like doors, and you really ought to take a look at the No Facilities blog by Dan Anton who has taken over the hosting of Thursday Doors from Norm 2.0 blog. Links to more doorscursions can be found in the comments section of Dan Anton’s Thursday Doors post.

These are terrific doors! I hope you are able to safely return for another holiday in Italy. Judging from what I’ve seen, it’s an entire country of inter doors.

Italy was made for Thursday doors!

I’m wondering who is supposed to fit through the skinny Door of the Dead…perhaps it doesn’t matter if you’re entering after you are you-know-what. 😉
Nice doors and I hope you make it back to Italy some day.

Every door is unique and with such character to it. Very enjoyable to look at them.

Oh! These look familiar, even though I have not been in either town you mention. Yes, Italian doors and towns are similar but then you start to notice little differences. I like your selection, and hope you return. The scary-sounding Door of the Dead is my favourite. Did you name it so or is it official?

It is official. I posted about it at the time. I’ll dig out the link.

Nice to revisit some of these doors. I especially like the door of the dead. I was fascinated then as I am now. Happy Holidays to you.

Would it not be something to be able to walk through one of those doors and into a different world? I’d hide the keys. Beautiful doors of antiquity.
