In this paper, we firstly introduce the novel 3D survey technique of laser scanning integrated with photogrammetric images as very
promising quasi-automatic method for the detailed modeling and the virtual rendering of whole cities with complex geometries and
structures. Afterwards, some specifications and examples are given about the different reachable levels of detail, on the base of our surveys done in the city of Gorizia (Italy). In conclusion, we
describe the creation of a high level of detail VRML model for Victory Square, the main square of the downtown, thanks to the laser building volumes and the photogrammetric image textures.
