Me and some friends are leaving in a month's time, maybe two.
Give me suggestions down below. I'm asking on Discord, Twitter, etc.
100% Pompeii. I'd go back to see the rest of it. We were there a few hours. I'd plan on spending a day there.
Rome was cool, so much history to see but Pompeii was #1 for me .
I had no idea how big of a city Pompeii is. And before I hype it up too much. If I went when I was 20 I probably wouldn't have appreciated it the same as seeing it at nearly 50.
There's just a ton of interesting facts about it. The technology they had , how they handled plumbing, warming their houses, stone streets with raised crosswalks. You can see the wagon tracks worn on the stones in the streets. And standing there looking at it while understanding this was a bustling city 2000 years ago.
I guess seeing "David" was pretty surreal also.
We stayed in Rome near a subway terminal and could walk/train all over the city. Which was fun too.
I'm atheist, however still quite enjoyed walking through the Vatican.
There really is an unlimited amount of things to see there ::)
Mussolini was executed in giulino di mezzegra, that's a great place to start
If your into Acheiropoieta, it's probably worth seeing. Otherwise go to the Egypt museum and the synagogue/film museum and Kingdom of Italy stuff.
I highly recommend Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna: both regions have many beautiful and historic cities, including very nice smaller ones (Ferrara was a highlight last time I went to Emilia-Romagna), as well as relaxing countryside. Rome is also fantastic, it probably is one of my favourite places I've ever been to and I'd love to go there again. As for other places, Milan is also neat, and the Italian lakes' region is very nice too. Sadly I've never been to Southern Italy as of yet, so I can't say anything these regions.
tiny libraries with interesting books.
Books in English?
Communist books?
visit the belvedere,
100% the Belvedere is great. Set up your day so that you get there about an hour before sundown, and just sit in the piazza having an overpriced spritz watching the city glow in the sunset.
That might not be where we're going, but I'll try to make it. Thanks!
I have some plans...
San Secondo, Bologna, Venice, Pompeii, and Tuscany.
