FIRENZE!!
Tuesday, November 29th, 2005FIRENZE or FLORENCE is located at central Italy, Tuscany… also well known for its beautiful scenery and home of the great artist- Michelangelo..The city itself is not really big, but there are so many things to see!!—Famous designer shops;a big open air leather market; churches, the Duomo; galleries; museums; the most famous sculpture in the western world–David; Michelangelo’s tomb etc etc…u will never run out of places to go:> should have stayed longer to really appreciate this place……….
The Duomo, built with red, green and white marble, took 150 years to complete(from 1294)..
David–the original master piece by Michelangelo, (as usual, we managed to snapped our photoes b4 the security can stop us :>) It was reported that most male visitors feel like smash or destroy the master piece on their first sight, because it was made too perfect n incured sense of insecurity :> hhmmmm.. as for me–I just feel like hugging it:p
Our favourite eating place at Florence:>reasonable price, friendly uncle and big serving:>We call it "The uncle’s place":>
On top of Piazzale Michelangelo, get the best view of Florence city..
