Venice ,Florence & Pisa...My Italy diaries A perfect weekend Getaway....

So we reached to the port of Venice where our boat ride through the Giudecca Canal to Piazza San Marco was booked by our tour guide.When the boat ride starts we soak up the magic atmosphere of this unique city and the Adriatic Sea.The ride was about 15-20 minutes and from boat we can see the amazing views of Piazza San Marco and the Venice city.

Venice is the only city which have no roads only canals including the famous Grand Canal.Piazza San Marco,The Central Square and St Marc Basilca are the most popular and must see sights of Venice.The gondola ride is also very famous and people from all over the world wait here in queue for hours in the summer season for their Gondola rides.

So the journey begins from the St Mark's Square.You will see the huge crowd of people from all over the world taking pictures of this famous Piazza San Marco and there are bunch of pigeons were flying and making this place more scenic and absolutely stunning.

St Mark's Basilica is an another landmark of Venice if you really wants to see it you need to arrive early because of the huge lines and it is not at all a great idea waiting in lines in the summers when the crowd is so huge.

The Vepporetto is again a water bus facility to take passengers from one point to another.It is very cheap and reasonable and used by most of the people to reach to the main sites of Venice and it is one of the fantastic ways to visit Grand Canal.

Whole day wander around Venice and the must see places are :

St. Mark Basilica

The Vaporetto

Gandola Ride

St.Mark's Square

Piazza San Marco

Rialto Bridge

The Doge's Palace

The Bridge of Signs

And you should try the Italian pizza from any of the restaurants and the kind of taste what they have you won't find in this whole world.While i was having my pizza a talking bird just came in front of me and it was literally taking something.Time to say good bye to Venice and tomorrow i will be on the Fields of Miracle.

Early morning after having the breakfast we left from the hotel and head up to the Fields of Miracle.

This picture is so weird that while we were walking to Fields of Miracle they were sitting besides the road and making hell lot of money.

My Pisa tower pictures are so damn basic i don't know weather we were confused that how to take the pictures or actually we just lost in the beauty of this Leaning tower of Pisa.It is a wonder of world and everybody's dream to be here once in their lifetime.I was superbly excited and in this excitement my pictures dint came well but captured something for my lifetime memories.

There must be a lot of history behind these beautiful buildings but i only know that it took years like almost more than 300 years to build these stunning buildings and the tower was began to lean when the construction of second floor has begun and it was leaning due to one side sinking in the soft ground.....amazing...

The day was spent taking the beautiful pictures then there is huge garden where people from all around the world spent the whole day and comes in the huge groups.Summers are the best times when you can visit The tower of Pisa.Next we walked through the streets of Pisa had a great time in street shopping.The Pisa streets were all full of Luxury brands first copy bags, belt and shoes.

There were some nice shops of branded luggage and some souvenirs shop from where most of the tourists shops for their family and friends.A well spent day but it was like walking whole day so kind of tiring we head up to our bus and it dropped us to our hotel and we rest for overnight and planned to leave Pisa in the morning as Florence is not too far from Pisa,Italy.

But once you enter in this glorious city Florence you forget all the pain you only wander around the city and try to capture as many memories as you can.The first thing came in my mind that i can see all the nude statues in this cities every corner so i asked my tour guide that what is the story behind it.

There are loads of world famous statues in Piazza della Signoria in Florence and most of them are represents male Nude.And the reason behind it that the artists of Europe studied that free standing nudes had been missing in Europe since the Roman Empire so they set about to revive the figures of classical antiquity in new and more realistic poses.

The Palazzo Vecchio is 13th century palace and the town hall of the Florence.Very near to this site you can find all the luxury brands and infact you can shop all day long and you won't feel tired as the big market place is designed so well for shoppers that you can find so many designers options and beautiful boutiques of different designers as Florence is quickly becoming the fifth fashion capital after New york , Milan ,Paris and London.Very happening and most recommended place.

The Fountain of Neptune is again a must see places situated near the Pizza della Signoria and in front of the Palazzo Vecchio and this statue is made of the Marble and bronze.Very crowded place and beautiful as well.

The Uffizi Gallery is an art Museum located adjacent to Piazza della Signoria. Most of the places are very near by thats why you can see all the sites in one day walking miles and you don't even realise that the whole day spend so well and all the places are so beautiful and photogenic that you can't take your eyes off.Some of the great artist sat besides the walking street exhibiting their stunning paintings and they are offering you to make your portrait but thats very expensive and time consuming of course so if you have much time in the city you will definitely try them.

This click was captured when i was walking on the beautiful bridge Ponte Vecchio that is again has a story behind it.This beautiful bridge is a most famous site of Florence and it is a Medival Stone Bridge with jewellery shops.Again if you are a shopping person it is one of the most recommended places.

The Basilica of Santa Croce is a famous Roman Catholic church in Florence,Italy again situated very near to the famous Fountain Of Neptune.

To explore more of the Florence city at least 2 days trip is required but i was having short of time and in one day i have explored sort of history and some of the must see places of Florence,Italy so i was happy and satisfied that in this short trip i have gained much knowledge of European history and to gain more if possible we can anyways travel to these beautiful countries again.
