Overview of Florence

Florence, Italy (English: Florence, Italian: Firenze) is the capital of Tuscany, and "Florence" (translated from English) was once translated into "Fei Lengcui" in Italian. The city is located in the middle of Apennines and Arno Valley, surrounded by mountains, with a population of about 380,000. On both sides of the street are artisan shops selling gold, silverware, jewelry, high-grade leather clothes, fashion, silk ties and printed materials of ancient buildings with wooden frames. During the Renaissance, the great pioneer poet Dante, scientist Galileo, political theorist Machiavelli, artists Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, and artists Donatello and Philippe Libo all lived here. Now the whole city has retained the brilliant features of the Renaissance. Florence has more than forty museums and galleries; There are more than 60 palaces, many churches and squares in different situations, and there are also a large number of excellent works of art and exquisite cultural relics, which attract thousands of tourists and are called the "Flowers of Florence".

Florence is a gentleman-style city, full of harmony and beauty, solemnity and order. Villages and country houses are dotted around the gentle hillside around the city. The city is very small, with a population of only 380,000. There is still a tradition since the Renaissance. Fireworks will be set off on June 24th every year, and a football match in medieval costume will be held to commemorate the protection of the sacred Giovanni in this city. Florence is a treasure house of Renaissance traditions and arts. The whole city retains the Renaissance style and still smells of Renaissance. Florence is a unique specimen left by that great era today.

The famous Notre Dame Cathedral is located in Domo Square in the city center. Founded in13-15th century, it is a world-famous Catholic church. The Baptistery is one of the oldest buildings in this city. It is magnificent, and it is one of bronze doors and marble buildings. The Zilan corridor on the side of the palace, together with the whole square, is like an open-air sculpture museum, with various bronze statues and stone carvings. Uffizi Palace and Pitti Palace are resplendent and magnificent, which are the essence of Italian art, among which Raphael's Madonna, Titian's Flora and Botticelli's The Birth of Venus are regarded as wonderful works.

In Florence, the "Flower Capital", you can see the narrow streets, just like in Renaissance moderns. Buildings and paintings shining with Renaissance light are still preserved here. Many artists and poets came to this city and fell in love with it because of its reputation as a "flower city".

Walking in the street, the first thing you see is the imitation lily and the medici family badge of Jiuyao. If we want to talk about this "flower", we should mention this medici family, which is said to come from a drug dealer and a protector of the city. It was medici family who discovered 13-year-old Michelangelo and asked him to learn sculpture. He also helped Raphael and finally made his artistic flower bloom. Backstage of brunelleschi, he completed the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Florence, and the Bohemian painter filippo Liddy was a medici. In the early Renaissance, these numerous artists surrounded medici family like shining stars (in Italy, this era is called the early Renaissance, because the Renaissance began in the15th century).

Another thing that can't be forgotten is to love and cultivate the citizens of Florence during the Renaissance. Famous artists are most afraid of these critical critics, but it is they who are the staunchest supporters of the Renaissance. Of course, there are indeed many artists who have fled the city because they can't stand their amazing discrimination.

It is said that Bergino, a painter who used to be Raphael's teacher, loves classical style and devotes himself to creation. As a result, he failed to attract the people of Florence and finally retired to his hometown of Pelja. The city ushered in the end of the Renaissance prematurely, and we can't help but say that the citizens' criticism is too sharp.

Time flies, when the glorious early Renaissance (15th century) has vanished like a dream. Let's go sightseeing. The magnificent cathedral radiates majestic light in the bright light of summer. The Arno River shines with golden light in the evening, and the street view and the ruins of the Renaissance will definitely leave a strong impression on you. You can't really know Florence without personal experience.

climate

Florence has a warm climate with four distinct seasons, dry summer and rainy winter, but it is cool in the shade and indoors. I even feel a little cold at night.

It is full of charm all year round, and it will be very pleasant to visit here at any time. July and August are the peak tourist seasons every year. And spring and autumn are good times to come here for a leisurely holiday. Spring is best for appreciating art, history and culture. Florence is beautiful under the bright sunshine in summer. Autumn is a time to visit historical sites, and you can also attend wine festivals and Qingfeng receptions held in various places. Don't miss skiing in the alpine ski resort in winter.

Venice Venice's main attractions: Saint Kyle Square: Saint Kyle Square is the largest square in Venice. It is a rectangular square, which is surrounded by the old and new administrative residence (procuratienuoveevecchie), alanapoleonica in the east and Saint Kyle Church in the east, connecting the two buildings. Napoleon once praised it as the most beautiful living room in Europe. During the period of the Republic of Venice, it was indeed the most magnificent first welcoming living room in Venice when welcoming foreign guests. All foreign ships sailed slowly into St. Kyle's Bay, and the first thing you saw was the magnificent scenery consisting of the side of the governor's residence, the entrance to the square and the bell tower. After disembarking, there are two tall pillars at the entrance of the square. One is the flying lion, the representative of Venice, and the other is Diodo, the earliest guardian of Venice and the welcoming entrance of Venice. The old parliament building on the north side of the square, on the same side as the bell tower, was built in the12nd century, with a total length of about152m. Today, the L building is the famous Caffe quadri in Quadri, and behind it is bacinoorseolo for gondola to park. The new administration building is located on the south side of St. Kyle Bay. Construction began in 1582 and was not completed until17th century. After the collapse of the Republic of Venice, it once became a royal palace, with the famous caffeflorian on the 1 floor and the Corell Museum on the second floor. Nowadays, any super-large and important events in Venice will be held here, such as the shocking concert of Pink Floyd 1989 and the main venue of the carnival every year. St. Kyle's Church: The earliest patron saint of Venice was St. Dior. However, since 828 AD, two Venetian businessmen smuggled Saint Kyle's body back to Venice from Egypt. The evangelist said that God decided to make Venice the last resting place of Saint Kyle, and Saint Kyle replaced Saint Dior as the patron saint of Venice, so the Venetians built a church to collect Saint Kyle's body in the 9th century. Ll Century Church was rebuilt in 1063- 1094 after the fire. Its plane presents a Greek regular cross, which consists of five domes of Byzantine. It is said that its design comes from hagiasophia in Istanbul, Turkey. The front is gorgeous, following the Byzantine style in the Middle East. The inner dome presents amazing mosaic mosaic and gold foil decoration. Opening hours: Monday-Saturday 08: 00-12: 3015: 30-16: 00 Tickets: Free Sigh Bridge: Sigh Bridge always gives people a romantic impression. It is the first bridge of sighs in the world. Later, the University of London and American universities imitated the shape of the bridge, built it in the middle of the river and named it after it. Its name began in17th century, and there is a story behind it, because the Bridge of Sighs is the only bridge between the Governor's Office and the prison. All prisoners were sent to prison through the Bridge of Sighs when they learned that they had been sentenced in the Governor's House, so when they crossed the bridge, they could only see the last ray of sunshine in their lives through its small window. Once a prisoner passed by here, looked out from the flower window and found his girlfriend and new lover very much in love, very sweetly taking the gondola under the bridge, so he sighed, hence the name of Sigh Bridge. Governor's Mansion: Originally built in the 9th century, Governor's Mansion is a defensive fortress that has experienced two fires. What we are seeing now is the Gothic appearance rebuilt in the15th century and the atrium in the Renaissance. Since the Republic of China, it has been the residence of yamen, imperial court and governor-general, so it is called palazzo. In ancient times, other aristocratic houses could only be called Palazzo (ca', short for casa). The position and style of the Governor's Office at that time can be seen.

Castellosforzesco: Castellos Forzesco. This castle was built by the then ruler Sforza in the15th century. The rooms in the castle are now turned into several museums. Among them are the museum of applied arts and music, the museum of archaeology and the museum of ancient art. Milan Opera House: teatroallascala, one of the most famous opera houses in the world. The Opera House was built in 1776- 1778. It is luxuriously decorated and has six floors of boxes, which can accommodate more than 2,000 people. World famous singers have performed here.

Main attractions in Rome: Colosseum (location): The Colosseum was built by three emperors of the Flavian dynasty, and its official name is Flavian Arena. Its construction is part of a series of movements initiated by the family of this new dynasty to improve its position in the public. Wei Paxiang (69-79 AD) was the founder of this dynasty, and his background was not noble. One year after Nero's suicide, Rome experienced the failure of three short-lived emperors, and Weipa Mi subsequently acceded to the throne. Nero was not forgotten at that time; The vast land and other luxuries he embezzled aroused public anger. Therefore, when Wei Pa-peng decided to fill up the artificial lake belonging to Nero's luxurious golden palace and turn it into a public entertainment place, almost no one raised any objection. Opening hours: 09: 00-13: 004-may: every day (except Wednesday and Sunday): 09: 00-17: 306-September: every day (except Wednesday and Sunday): 09: 00-6500. Sunday): 09: 00-17: 00165438+10-65438+February: every day (except Wednesday and Sunday): 09: 00- 16: 00 Tickets: 8. Like Vitorino, it is a landmark tourist attraction in Rome. Spanish Square: The Spanish steps in front are famous for the location of the movie Roman Holiday. There are many portraits and flower stalls on the steps. Sitting on the steps, you can feel a lively and leisurely atmosphere, which is incredible. There is always someone playing guitar or taking pictures in front of the broken fountain in front of the steps, which is a lively scene. This fountain is the work of bernini's father, and the idea comes from a burst of the Tver River, when a boat was pushed away by the water. There are three dance halls with ancient Egyptian obelisks on the Spanish steps. Behind the obelisk is the Trinity Church on the mountain, overlooking the whole square.

The main attraction of Pisa Pisa: torrependente: The eight-story 58-meter-high leaning tower of white marble is considered as an architectural miracle by the world. At first, it was only used as the bell tower of the cathedral. Construction started on 1 174. Due to the lower limit of the foundation, it will tilt on the third floor. Therefore, it was forced to stop work, continue construction after 80 years, and make corrections, but it never made the leaning tower stand upright. Over the years, in order not to make the leaning tower collapse, scientists have come up with various ways to save it. Another famous story is Galileo's free fall experiment on the tower, which proved the principle of gravity acceleration. Nowadays, the leaning tower restricts a certain number of people to visit every day. Main attractions of the Vatican: Vatican City is closed to the public, and only St. Peter's Cathedral and Vatican Museum are open to tourists. Vatican cathedral: basilicadisanpietro: Peter is one of Jesus' 12 disciples! He is also the closest and most loyal disciple of Jesus. It is said that St Peter is buried in this church. 1940, Vatican diggers claimed that they found Peter's body under the altar. Roman Catholicism recognized Peter as the first archbishop of Rome. There is a bronze statue of St. Peter in Peter's Cathedral. It is said that people can get God's blessing and good luck by touching God's right foot. So now its right foot is obviously less than its left foot. St Peter's Cathedral is the largest church and the largest dome building in the world. It was built in the fourth century AD in the era of Constantine the Great, when the church was relatively small. Vatican Square: It was originally part of the Catholic Palace. After several generations of popes, such a huge building complex has been formed since the expansion of Nicholas V. Now, except a few that are still used as the living room and office of the Pope, the rest have become museums. Since Pope Julies II (1503- 15 13), the Vatican Palace has become a museum, with many artistic treasures in the world. The museum has more than100000 breathtaking art treasures from ancient times to the Renaissance. Milan Milan main attractions: Milan Cathedral: For Gothic architecture lovers, it is a beautifully decorated masterpiece: a poem written in marble. Just outside the church, 2,245 sculptures, 135 spires, 96 monster-shaped drippers and about half a mile (1 km) of window grilles were used.
