Here are some tips to avoid pitfalls, so you don't make the same mistakes. ⛔️Tip 1: Schengen visas must be applied for 1-3 months in advance. Book flights and hotels only after the visa is approved. Don't get the order wrong. ⛔️Tip 2: There are many pickpockets in Europe.

European standard plugs won't work. ⛔️Tip 5: You'll need to walk between attractions in Italy, and there are cobblestone paths within the attractions, so it's best to wear comfortable shoes. ⛔️Tip 6: Walk confidently! The more cautious you are, the more it looks like you have money in your bag! ⛔️Tip 7: Bring an anti-theft bag. ⛔️Tip 7: Wear comfortable shoes, as you'll be walking an average of 20,000 steps a day.

In restaurants, a meal costs around 40 euros per person. ⛔️Tip 9: In Rome, it's recommended to stay near the Pantheon so you can go back to the hotel for a midday nap and recharge before heading out again. ⛔️Tip 10: If you encounter people who approach you in tourist areas, no matter what they're doing, run!

#1月好去地方2025 When I went to Tuscany in central Italy, I visited the ancient city of Siena, which is listed as a World Cultural Heritage. This medieval autonomous city-state has completely preserved its original appearance, allowing travelers who step into the old town to feel the scenery and history of Siena in the past. After half a day of walking around, Siena must-visit attractions: ✓Siena City Hall Palazzo Pubblico The brick-red city hall is a lovely building. The square and round windows of the main building actually form a lovely face. The lively expression seems to be smiling and welcoming. The towering bell tower standing next to it seems to be waving to tourists. Piazza del Campo, the Shell Square in front of the Town Hall, is an important venue for the horse racing festival. In a corner next to it, there is also a happy fountain, Fonte Gaia. ✓Siena Cathedral Duomo di Siena If the most popular tourist attractions in Asia are temples, then the most popular tourist attractions in Europe are churches. The black and white marble walls, the standard Tuscan Gothic style, and the intricately carved stone sculptures are extremely beautiful and are not inferior to the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. Spend €3 to visit the interior and you will be able to experience the magnificence and shock. Siena is a beautiful mountain city, which is like walking into the medieval Europe. However, the stone steps are not easy to walk up and down, and it is also a test of tourists' leg strength, especially when dragging luggage. It will be crazy to arrange a half-day tour to visit with light luggage, which will make the trip much more relaxing and comfortable. #italytravel #siena

Is this the real world? The 'Paradise Town' in the fairy tale world! This white mushroom town in southern Italy is truly the most fairy-tale-like town I've ever seen. A mythical place so beautiful it feels unreal. A gem in the Itria Valley. - In 1996, it was listed as a World Cultural Heritage site and is known as Italy's 'Paradise Town'. The town is not large, with only over 10,000 people, but it has world-renowned architecture. Under the blue sky and white clouds, those white-walled, gray-tiled, domed houses are like something out of a fairy tale, incredibly beautiful and romantic. It feels like you could meet a fairy princess around the next corner. The town becomes even more tranquil as night falls, with time seeming to slow down in the sunset. The whole person is enveloped in the lazy and romantic atmosphere of southern Italy. One by one, the small shops begin to light up, and the leisurely night begins. The twinkling lights are like stars scattered across the sky.

Now it's really easy to plan your trip by yourself, we haven't used travel agencies for a long time! Application Trip.com is my best friend in travel planning Where to start? It would be logical to choose a country and, accordingly, the type of vacation that you like. Are you flying to Italy and arranging a gastronomic tour with sightseeing? Or to a tropical island and lying with a cocktail under a palm tree? It already depends on your preferences, company and, of course, budget. The first piece of advice: check the weather at your destination. We once spent 5 days in Costa Rica during the rainy season and spent the entire vacation in the spa and gym, because the nasty gray rain drizzled without stopping for a minute with Here are some recommendations on where to go this summer: Bali (keep in mind that from June there is a high season and quite pleasant weather, but the flow of tourists also increases significantly); to the Mediterranean Sea, by July it already warms up well and you can have a wonderful vacation at the resorts of Spain, France, Italy, Montenegro, Croatia; a good idea would be a cruise, in summer they are even in northern Europe, including the famous Norwegian fjords and in Alaska (I still want to get there) But here are places that I would not recommend you in the summer months: in Goa, India and in Thailand there are tropical downpours. In the Southern Hemisphere, the summer months are winter, and the beach season, for example in South Africa, South Australia or Argentina, is closed at this time of year. And also at the end of summer - September, hurricanes form in the Caribbean Sea and you should not be there at all at this time;) Share where you would like to go this summer and why?

Dolomites Journey: Day 3 Hiking in the Funes Valley Waking up early and opening the window, I was surprised to find a sea of clouds, so I immediately went out to take some pictures. There was no one on the road, few cars, and the air was super good, making me feel so relaxed here. After breakfast, we set out to hike the Funes Valley, where the typical European natural scenery unfolds: distant mountains and dense forests reaching into the sky, tender green meadows stretching as far as the eye can see, with wooden huts built like blocks in the center of the meadows, and the most eye-catching spot on the slope is a church, the abode of the soul. Although we came in the morning and didn't see the light of the Alps under the sunset, the scenery with the mist swirling around was also very beautiful, The fourth picture is the most famous photo spot in the town, but unfortunately, there was fog, and it was early in the morning, so the photo was not very ideal tips: Funes Valley is a valley under the highest peak of the Dolomites, the Geisler Peak, located in the Dolomite region of Italy. Funes Valley is world-renowned because of Geisler Peak. The valley is home to attractions such as the ancient town of Santa Maddalena, the Church of Santa Maddalena, the Church of St. John, and the Puez-Geisler National Park. Reaching Funes Valley is not an easy task, although it is well-known, because public transportation is not very developed, self-driving is the most convenient way to get there.

Como is the most famous lake in northern Italy, a common saying among the locals is: those who have vacationed at Lake Como are the ones who truly understand life. Lake Como is near the Alps, so in addition to the beautiful lake view, there is also a magnificent feeling~. If you come to I sincerely recommend a day trip to Como. It takes an hour by train from Milan, and there are many beautiful small towns scattered around the lake. The scenery is very stunning, many locals come here for the weekend, wearing swimsuits and jumping directly into the blue lake water, super decompression! Route: Milan Central Railway Station-Veranna Town (1.5 hours)- Bellagio (15 minutes by boat)-Como Town (1 hour by boat)-Return to Milan (1 hour) Travel Guide Cable Car on the Mountain Top You can see the distant Alps and the nearby Lake Como, round-trip ticket is 6.6 euros, every fifteen minutes, 5 minutes to the top of the mountain. Lake Tour Boat About an hour, will stay in the surrounding towns, you can sightsee on the boat without getting off, 8.9 euros per person Cathedral Classic Gothic architecture, free to visit, no tickets required, but the toilet charges, if you can't accept it, you can go to a coffee shop or bar for a free use Veranna: There are many boats from Veranna to Bellagio, but they are not direct, you have to go to Menaggio first, there is a castle on the top of the mountain in Veranna, but you have to climb the mountain by yourself, if you really don't want to walk, it's also very comfortable to walk by the lake Bellagio: Compared to Veranna, I like it here more, although the place is very small, but there are all kinds of exquisite small shops everywhere, the alleys in the sun are like with filters, various colors of walls, taking pictures and so on are really beautiful, addicted in a second~

Cortina D’Ampezzo is undoubtedly the most famous of all the small mountain towns in the Dolomites and due to its popularity, it’s also one of the busiest and most expensive. I’ve spent a lot of time exploring Cortina and its surroundings. The high street boasts high-end fashion stores and fancy restaurants so if you want to intersperse your mountain holiday with some shopping then Cortina is the place to do it. The popularity of Cortina is definitely justified. There’s so much to do around the town, it’s difficult not to recommend it to most people coming to the Dolomites. #passionpassport #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #cafe #awesomepic #celebratewithtrip #couplestrip #2024travelwish #passionpassport
