    This villa is located in the Bogcai Garden, which is more like an entertainment park with many entertainment projects. The villa is well preserved and has a good view from its small hillside.

    Venice: Water Capital's End of Love Letter When the gondola boatman hums the tune of My Sun across the moldy green waterway, you know that this water city has become an endangered specimen of globalization. The high tide alarms at St. Mark's Square are ensembled with cruise ship whistles, pigeons are excreting on the golden roof of the Governor's Palace, and the Adriatic is nibbling romance into ruins at a rate of two millimeters a year. The Labyrinth Lane hides the final miracle. In the morning mist at the Rialto fish market, glass trout refracted rainbows on broken ice, and fishmongers wearing gold chains cursed frozen cargo ships in dialect. In the mask workshop at the end of the dead lane, the old craftsman glued the long beaks of the plague doctor with rabbits, his wrinkles more twisted than the canal veins. The contours of the Church of Our Lady of Ankang melted in the backlight as it passed behind it at sunset on the College Bridge, forming a cruel allegory of civilization change. The real face under the carnival mask was the most shocking. At the Harry bar on high tide, old waiters in tuxedos raised Berini cocktails over their heads and poured them over their heads. When tourists paid for 28 euros of peach juice and sparkling wine, the bar TV was broadcasting news of citizens protesting against the arrival of cruise ships. In the small square of the bluestone in the Jewish quarter, children playing football smashed the ball into the iron windows of the 16th century "ghetto", and the sound of metal tremors echoed the memory of 500 years of imprisonment. It is recommended to get lost in the castle area late at night. When drunk backpackers disappear, the damp moonlight overflows the peeling wall paintings, Seaweed and historical saltiness ooze between the stone seams. At this time, in a window with a dim light, the old woman read aloud Calvino in dialect - these stubborn and surviving daily slices are the souls of the water city that are not sold. Take the 2nd water bus to the outlying island before dawn. Seeing the outline of the sigh bridge in the morning mist, and the port container ship whistled - gondola is a hearse on the water, carrying the remains of Venice to the future of specimens. It is not worth the Romantic pilgrimage here, but if you want to salvage the light of the civilized shipwreck in the salty wind, Each peeling wall hides more real gold than postcards.

    The private villa of the Boboli family, a legendary Italian family, covers a huge area and is also a very nice garden landscape in the old town. Many people are maintaining it here and you can visit it from the outside.

    It's a super fun place. The key is that there are many things that you can operate by yourself. It's really interesting. There are many devices that look simple, but they contain a lot of physical and chemical principles.

    The Enzo Ferrari Museum is a must-visit for car enthusiasts and history lovers alike. The sleek, modern design of the building contrasts beautifully with the historic workshop of Enzo Ferrari’s father. Inside, the exhibits showcase stunning Ferrari models, rare memorabilia, and engaging multimedia presentations. The cinematic experience about Enzo’s life is a highlight.

    If you are visiting Genoa by boat, this is a great place to visit especially with kids. The aquarium is only a 10-15 minute walk from the port so no transport is needed. The third child is free so big families can get tickets too. The visit takes about 2-3 hours and it is best to check if there is a dolphin show before you go as I didn't catch one the day I went.

    Dante's former residence is a medieval tower-style house with a simple and inconspicuous appearance. There is a relief of Dante's head on the exterior wall, and the floor tiles in front of the door are also engraved with Dante's statue. It is said that kissing his nose will bring good luck. Dante's former residence was the place where Dante was born, and he was born on May 29, 1265. Dante was a pioneer of the Italian Renaissance, famous for his works The Divine Comedy and The Newborn.

    The exhibition hall has two floors. It is expected to take more than 2 hours to visit. If you like the Venetian School of Painting, you can visit it. There are works by Titian, Tintoretto, Botticelli, Giorgione, etc. ~ The art museums in Venice are so beautiful that it is unbearable. It is a real pleasure to see the master art exhibitions in Venice. Every time I go to the exhibition, I can spend an afternoon visiting... I highly recommend the art museums I often visit!

    The Figueram Museum is really a simple museum, where you can see quite interesting things. Figueram is also a very historical building. This place is also very simple and very touristy.
