Definitely one of the most beautiful squares in Italy sent on June 11, 2017 (10:11) by Rosario Cafiso. 122 comments, 2546 views. [retina]

Ragusa Ibla Il progetto di Rosario Gagliardi, di cui si conservano le tavole originali, è caratterizzato dalla monumentale facciata a torre che ingloba il campanile nel prospetto e termina con una cuspide a bulbo, richiamando i tabernacoli lignei, seicenteschi, delle chiese cappuccine. La collocazione della chiesa al termine di un'alta scalinata e la posizione obliqua rispetto alla piazza sottostante accentuano l'imponenza e gli effetti plastici, creati da una lieve convessità del partito centrale e dalla presenza delle colonne libere. Due coppie di volute fanno da raccordo tra i diversi livelli ospitando, rispettivamente, le statue di San Giorgio e San Giacomo in basso, e quelle di San Pietro e San Paolo in alto. Sulla cuspide, sotto la croce, si legge la data 1775, che indica la conclusione dei lavori della facciata. Nel primo ordine del partito centrale si apre un grande portale con cornice mistilinea, ricca di fregi e rilievi a motivi vegetali, mentre le porte lignee hanno una preziosa decorazione scultorea, in sei riquadri, con la raffigurazione di episodi del martirio di San Giorgio, opera dell'intagliatore palermitano Vincenzo Fiorello, che li realizzò nel 1793.

A unique square in the world !!! On the other side there is a bar, if I remember, where they do a great granite.
Nice shot

Beautiful caption and snap.
Perhaps the church has a somewhat dark, but beautiful brightness.
Even here, careful to the verticals. The church hangs to the right.
For prospective distortions, you can delete them in PP. When you do this kind of shots, it leaves more room on it as it eliminates the distortions, the photo slides upwards and finally stops the roof. I do not know if I explained it ;-)
Beautiful square and Sicily generally 8-)
