Before going to Italy, my impression of it was limited to Espresso, Cappuccino, Pizza, and Pasta. After going to Italy, I was able to truly appreciate its art and culture. From the ruins of ancient Rome to the Renaissance in Florence, from the floating city of Venice to the fashion capital of Milan, the visual impact was so great that my wife and I kept snapping photos. I hope these photos can provide some travel tips for friends who are planning to visit Italy, and can also bring back sweet memories for those who have already been there. By the way, July and August are the hottest months in Italy (35-40 degrees Celsius), and St. Mark's Square in Venice may be flooded. It is best to avoid these months.

Here is my itinerary:

Day 1: Taipei - fly to Abu Dhabi - fly to Rome 
Day 2: Rome - Pompeii - Naples 
Day 3: Naples - ship - Capri Island - cable car - ship - Sorrento - Rome 
Day 4: Rome - Colosseum - Arch of Constantine - Pantheon - St. Peter's Basilica - Trevi Fountain - Spanish Steps - night tour 
Day 5: Rome - Siena - Cathedral - Piazza del Campo - Leaning Tower of Pisa - Pisa
Day 6: Pisa - Florence - Piazzale Michelangelo - Duomo - Piazza della Signoria - Pisa 
Day 7: Pisa - Murano Island - Venice - Rialto Bridge - St. Mark's Basilica - Gondola ride 
Day 8: Venice - Verona - Arena - Milan - La Scala Opera House - Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II - Duomo di Milano - Milan 
Day 9-10: Milan - fly to Rome - fly to Taipei

去義大利前對她的印象僅止於Espresso、Capuchino、Pizza、Pasta﹔去過義大利後才真正體會到她的藝術與文化。從古羅馬廢墟到翡冷翠文藝復興,從水都威尼斯到時尚米蘭,一連串的視覺震撼,讓我和老婆猛按快門。希望這些照片能帶給想去義大利旅遊的朋友一些行前參考,也能帶給去過義大利的朋友一些甜蜜的回憶。對了,每年七、八月是義大利最熱的季節(攝氏35-40度),威尼斯的聖馬可廣場也可能會淹水,最好避開。
