Tracks-Italy

Day 1

Our morning around 10: 30 departure from Beijing, in Frankfurt, in the evening 6: 30 or so flew to Rome's Leonardo da Vinci Airport.

Airport to city centre Termini, (that is, the central railway station, is the one of Rome's transport hub) Leonardo Express train ticket 9 euro a person (or 9.5 Europe, can't remember too wound up), 20 minutes a bus. The aircraft followed the crowd walked on basic can go by car, we are so, so don't worry about not found.

Car approximately 40 ~ 50 minutes and arrive at the Termini.

Since we booked the hotel is close to the station, we get off dragging luggage to the hotel on foot in about 15 minutes. A short rest, has four twilight. I ate on the plane because of a bad stomach (corruption, drink a glass of white wine, the result diarrheaand, subsequently learned that the alcohol in the aircraft's high ground twice), night no appetite, went to a nearby 500 square and Republic square turned. 500 square is in front of the big railway station square, nothing to see, basic is a distribution center. Republic Plaza has two semicircles of three-story building, quite spectacular.

Day 2

Early in the morning on Saturday, go to the Vatican museums.

Prior to see the book's opening hours, opening on Saturdays only morning (8: 45 ~ 12: 30 pm), Sundays closed (only last Sunday each month is free, you can also see the Pope Saint Peter square out waving). Since we only stay in Rome a weekend for two days, and not the end of the month, so there is no choice. (Here to remind you that Italy attractions open, rest of the time, going on and off time prior plan, otherwise the empty to have Bao Shan is very depressed!) have to line up, take the subway A line to Cipro Musei Vaticani stop. Queue is long. We have to give up, and so opening later to queued, then to the other side of the door and found that there is a team of very short, we rank. Then know that we have mistakenly hit accidentally knocked on a row, because the longer service is only for guided tours of the arrangement, will open the door than fit half an hour earlier. Many fit because was in, wronged team, to the door, only to be informed of troubleshooting team, rearranging, is despite its sympathy. So if you are yourself, remember that 10 million rows in the right hand side of the entrance to the Museum. (Or ask at the front of the procession, or the door staff)

Vatican Museums really lives up to its name, great, we had a little stroll in the morning, at least 2 hours also needed.

Many familiar art treasures can see authentic in there. Tickets are not cheap, 12 euro a person, but still very worthwhile. I was just because the Studio, want to go see the Sistine, missed the Studio. For my preference to Raphael, or even turn around in a circle, a waste of time Museum (although in this Museum, we have to wait a day also voracious, which also has a canteen for this, but the time intensive visitor or not to go back and forth recommendations of La).

There is explanation about the rent.

We rented a one person, one 6 ' and found two people sharing one is enough. Because you can rewind the tape repeatedly hear, no headset, take in the ear can hear that two people could take turns to listen to, or one man to another person. There is no need for wasting money.

Also long-winded words Sistine, really breathtaking! although previously in various publications have seen the Sistine frescoes of heaven, but see that kind of scale, shocked or not.

The whole chapel paintings are Bible stories, so many muscles skeleton clear human portrait, face full of Michelangelo's gloomy, suffering, makes people involuntarily silence. The entire Museum only here is not to take pictures and lit, even not allowed to speak loudly, visible is the fragrance, strict protection. I looked at it a long time, neck are acid or not willing to go to Michelangelo's style heavy deep, intent to become a sculptor, he finally has by virtue of the Sistine frescoes become history painter, also started his own and not by the materials. It is said that he completed this mural and ceiling paintings, long-term looked finished stoop, paintings are Dislocated bones.

From the Museum out to the door, opposite a pizza shop to a cake.

The two of us by just one can of Cola, for a total of 11 Europe seems to be. As seen on the Internet say eating in Italy and takeaway prices are not the same, eating charge seats, so would like to buy away sit outside and eat. But lg refused, saying that Italy is about to experience local life, we all have dinner in Italy are sitting on the inside of the Church, only eat in a restaurant is explicitly informed who received 1.5 Europe, other seats are not received, while others don't see the Bill, it also is unclear. But overall, according to our dining specifications (relatively simple, basic is a main dish or a pizza, salad, beverage, two people share), basic is more than 10 euro. Also sometimes buy that kind of packages, the railway station 1/4pizza, a Coke, a small fruit Cup, 5 ~ 6 Europe, very affordable, you can scribble out a meal on the train.

Excuse me, said to eat can't say a few words, the fear of forgetting to say later.

The top of the Church, because you want to line up to buy tickets sat elevator. By the way, to send postcards to friends, here is the post office, you can buy stamps at the post. In the square was seen hanging from a Chinese brand "1-20 postcard" stalls, quality is not bad, it is deficient! (other places are 0.1 ~ 0.5 Europe) lg bought a set, as his Memorial. And then a Bernini's Saint Angel bridge. When in fact you can go and not far from the mouth of the truth, but our camera dead, had to take the battery back to the hotel, go to the mouth of truth is not the way, so they go straight to the Venice square, to commemorate the first unified Italy King Victor Emmanuelle II building, there is the magnificent white monument, and khaki looks antique Venetian Palace, on the outside can see that Mussolini speech balcony.

There is also another Roman traffic hub, and went to fight animal farm and the Pantheon are 20 minutes, but the two directions.

Because the Sun both places are only open in the morning, while our second day, make an appointment on Saturday afternoon.

Pantheon, is praised as "Angels of Michelangelo's masterpiece".

Ancient Roman buildings like this vault or arches, is a rich, magnificent, but the mechanics of requirements is also high. Pantheon of there is a hole in the dome Center. So if you are arriving at noon, you can see the sky a column onto the landscape, should be a mind-boggling.

Then we walk to the North, you'll find where it is said to be Roman young people like to leisure centre – Narbona square.

Two Baroque masters Bernini's fountain sculpture is the symbol of the square. There are many open-air café, have the time and humour can sit down and beautiful products in a small cup of espresso (usually coffee people to be careful, Italy's coffee is concentrated, a cup of only a little, but guaranteed access you can't sleep at night)

From Venice square to fight animal farm, passing through the ancient Roman market.

You can look down. Ancient Roman market is the ancient Roman public life Center with Caesar era Senate site, etc., also does not collect the tickets, summer sunset before the door. Book said to walk around two hours, we'll look at the broken wall ruins, coupled with a little imagination, I think that is enough. Certainly hope that the depth of understanding of the ancient Roman life or can go in and savor.

We at night around 6: 30 arrive at fighting beasts of the field.

Really impressive. Unfortunately, just close the door, we didn't go in and visit. Just outside took some picture.

From the bucket of veterinary field back to the square of Venice.

Just behind the giant white monument on a small square, designed by Michelangelo-Piazza Campidoglio, and Museum Capitolini. When we go to Piazza was about to hold a small concert. In this square behind you can see more clearly the Roman market.

Night, 8: 00, lg has been crying out for an hour of hunger.

I adhere to the River area to go to dinner, because it is said that there can see Roman citizens of modern life. Lg desperation had to accompany my ride (81 or H road) to the River. Rome is not large, the map to see very far, in fact, the third Station Road. The car will come down a river on the right.

The original there is Rome's nightlife.

Mary many people on the square, around the bar street,. Proposals must go and see, where to see life in the ancient cities of the Roman people actually live and other modern urban residents alike. (There is a small open-air seating and acoustic singer, guitar melodies and heavy Italian songs people have inexplicable throbbing)

We have about ten or so back, there are many cars to Venice square, sat H road end Termini central station is very convenient.
