When you see it for the first time, you will probably stop in surprise - just like I did. The huge sphere that rises in the middle above the circular fountain basin and is reflected in the water makes the two elements into a wonderfully harmonious unit. The creator of the "Big Sphere" is the Italian sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro (born 1926), whose works have been present not only in European countries but worldwide for decades, and who has already received numerous awards.

The Large Sphere by Arnaldo Pomodoro, an impressive work, is placed on the fountain in the center of the city of Pesaro. This bronze sculpture, created in 1998, has a diameter of 3.5 meters.

Right distance to resume pedaling after cold days with bronchitis .... No difficulty, almost all flat stage if you exclude the slight and short ascents of Siligata and the panoramic Gabicce.
