Views Around Messina, Sicily, Italy - 8th July, 2014

I visited the City of Messina, Sicily as part of a cruise on board the MSC Splendida. This film features footage from a short circular walk around the city, where some of the main sites were taken in, alongside the general streets, architecture and transport of Messina.
Identified features and locations within the film are as follows: The Port of Messina, Views over Messina from the MSC Splendida cruise ship, Viale San Martino, Via Santa Maria Alemanna, Carlo III Di Bourbon statue, Via 1 Settembre, Via Giuseppe la Farina, Piazza della Republica, Piazza Cairoli, Via Nicola Fabrizi, Chiesa del Carmine, Views over Messina from the bell tower of Chiesa del Carmine, University of Messina, Court of Messina, Piazza Duomo, Fountain of Orion, The Cathedral (Duomo) of Messina and Via Giuseppe Garibaldi.
I very much enjoyed my visit to Messina, and will certainly return to document other parts of the city and wider region.

Beautifully filmed and nice to hear the natural sounds of the city rather than the moronic background others have -

+Moss Travel Media I am curious -- did you use a hand-held camera or is the camera on a tripod to shoot this video, and what camera did you use?

[@stuartmoss]

+Howard Schildhouse the camera is mostly hand held, sometimes leaning on walls for stability! It is a Canon Legria HF G20, the latest model in the series is the G40, which will be my next purchase!
