1341 Fall

readx;?readx; The first attraction is the Church of Frary, the full name of the Church of St. Mary the Glory of the Church, this church is seen in the guide, and the altar has Titian's famous work "The Assumption of the Virgin". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info+ The ticket for this church is 3 euros, Yunluo asked the window if the Venice tourist card can be used, she said yes, and ordered a card to go up.

Then I was given a map, which shows all the churches that this passcard can go to, a total of 20, but they are all relatively small churches, and some of the areas are also remote, so it is really not worth running to use this card. However, the architecture and churches of Venice are really different, and there is almost no duplication in style.

Every place is a refreshing feeling, so if you have enough time, Yunluo will definitely visit every corner of Venice and never miss it! Then Yunluo and An Chuyu crossed the Academy Bridge and came to the vicinity of the Academy Art Museum, a treasure trove of art that treasured many masterpieces of the Venetian School, only to be told that Yunluo and An Chuyu's cards could not be used.

Of course, the time is too rushed. Then we went around to the Church of Our Lady of the Anthem, typical of the Venetian Baroque, which was dedicated to the Virgin Mary when the Black Death raged in 1630. When I walked to the front of the church, my feet were crippled, and I sat on the platform for a long time.

Looking at the square of San Marco on the other side of the river, the bus boat has to make a stop, and if you walk, Yunluo and An Chuyu have to go back to the college bridge, in order to save the 10 euro ferry ticket, pity Yunluo and An Chuyu's feet on the verge of the limit. St. Mark's Square consists of the Ducal Palace, St. Mark's Basilica, St. Mark's Bell Tower.

The buildings of the old and new administrative buildings, the Napoleonic wing that connects the two buildings, the quadrangular bell tower of St. Mark's Basilica and the Library of San Marco are surrounded by the Grand Canal of Venice. Marco is the author of the Gospel of Mark in the Bible, and the Venetians worship him as their patron saint.

Legend has it that in 828 two Venetian merchants smuggled the remains of the Saint Mark from Alexandria, Egypt to Venice, and built a church for St. Mark in the same year, which contains the tomb of St. Mark, the cathedral is named after St. Mark, and the square in front of the cathedral is also named "St. Mark's Square".

St. Mark's Square has always been the center of public activity for Venetian's political, religious and traditional festivals. The 4 cities that Yunluo and An first met this time all have highly influential landmark church buildings and squares, and if you think that you will be aesthetically tired along the way, you are very wrong!

Because, although these four churches are all incredibly beautiful, they are all very different from the outside to the inside, and each has its own unique characteristics. This one in Venice. Yunluo felt that it was the most exotic, and the moment he stepped into St. Mark's Square, Yunluo felt an extraordinary shock. Italy, how many more surprises do you have to give Yunluo and An their first encounter?

St. Mark's Basilica is closed at 5 o'clock. Yunluo and An Chuyu started queuing around 4:45, so they just took a hasty tour. The exterior of the church can be seen in the shape of a mosque, with five large round roofs (said to be from the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey).

This is typical of Oriental Byzantine art, and can be found on many buildings in Venice. The reason is probably that Venice was well developed by sea at that time, and it had close contacts with Eastern Europe and the Arab region in Asia. So absorb a lot of exotic elements in. The whole church is Oriental Byzantine art and ancient Roman art.

A mix of medieval Gothic and Renaissance art, the interior of the church is filled with detailed Byzantine-style mosaics from floor to wall to ceiling, covering topics such as the sermon of the Twelve Apostles, the Passion of Christ, Christ and the Prophets, and portraits of saints.

These paintings are covered with a layer of shiny gold leaf, which makes the whole church shrouded in golden light, no wonder the church is called the Golden Church! St. Mark's Basilica was the private chapel of the Doge of Venice until 1807, and this is the temptation of power! It's a pity because of time.

Yunluo and An did not visit the church's most valuable "Golden Altar" (admission is charged). The golden altar is located at the back of the middle of the nave, and below the altar is the tomb of Saint Mark. Behind the altar is a 1.4-meter-high, 3.48-meter-wide golden paladoro, on which there are more than 80 paintings depicting Jesus and the Virgin.

The porcelain tiles of the disciple Mark acting. More than 2,500 jewels such as diamonds, rumoreds, pearls, topazes, emeralds and amethysts adorn the picture. Keep it on your next trip! The Ducal Palace, on the edge of St. Mark's Square, was the highlight of the trip, and I first went around and admired the façade of the Bridge of Sighs.

It is said that Yunluo always thought that the prisoner had walked over the Bridge of Sighs and entered the prison at first, but later when he entered the Duke's Palace, he realized that the prisoner even had a chance to get out of the Duke's Palace! People walked from the bridge to the prison, looking at the bustling and happy crowd on the bridge, this is really called cruelty!

Swipe the QR code on your Venice card (16 euros if you buy a ticket separately) and enter the Palazzo Ducale. The Ducal Palace is also known as the Doge's Palace of Venice. In the past, it was a government office and a court, and it was also the residence of the Doge of Venice. The current building was mainly built between 1309 and 1424. In 1574, the Doge's Palace suffered a fire.

Severely damaged. The current building is a Gothic building built in the 15th century. In the inner courtyard there is the "Giant's Staircase", built in the early 16th century, and the 30-step marble steps are topped by huge sculptures of the gods of war and the god of the sea. There is a "golden ladder" in the building. Because there are gold-painted walls on both sides, and there are gorgeous murals on the top, it gets its name. The main hall has:

Map Hall, Four Entrance Hall, Conference Hall, Hall of Ten, Hall of Elders and Grand Conference Hall, etc. The interior decoration is mainly oil paintings, murals, marble sculptures and wood carvings. Tintoretto's Paradis, 22 meters long and 7 meters wide, is based on Dante's Divine Comedy. There are more than 700 figures in the painting.

It is known as the world's largest oil painting. There are 7 seats in front of the painting, with the Governor in the center and 3 senators next to it. Descending the stairs leads to the "Bridge of Sighs" (Pontedeisospiri), the one where Yunluo and An first met outside, with a few small windows next to the passage for one last look at the outside world.

Then walked into the small cell that could not be recovered, and was really terrified out of the Duke's Palace and almost ended the day's trip, Yunluo and An Chumet and found a shop to taste the local specialty - cuttlefish noodles... To be honest, the taste is really unaccustomed to eating, especially for people like Yunluo, who reject seafood, An Chuyu is full of relish.

Or is it better to have a dessert like tiramisu that is more suitable for Yunluo :) After the meal, it was dark, and I followed the navigation back to the hotel. Because many of the roads in Venice are paved with small stones, and the straight-line distance seems to be very short, but in fact it has to go around in the east and west.

So the actual distance will be much longer. The fatigue of the previous few days has not dissipated, and today's trek has become the last straw that crushes Yunluo and An's first encounter. In short, Yunluo felt that after the first day of Venice, his physical strength and feet had completely reached the limit. It's like the day we stormed Las Vegas last year.

A day off slightly relieved the fatigue that was already on the verge of the limit yesterday, and today I decided to make the most of the transportation! Got up early and had breakfast first. Although the room in the Italian hotel is a little stumbling, the quality of the breakfast is all bargain ~ especially dessert! After dinner, I bought a 20 euro / day pass for the bus boat at the tourist service kiosk next to the train station.

Start your second day in Venice! It is really dizzying to say that the bus routes and procedures in Venice are so complicated. Yunluo and An Churan studied the picture for a long time, and they finally saw the reason, but it was really a very fresh and incredible experience, super excited. It's best to download a Venice bus route map in advance.

Let's see how many boats you can take to which station. Then you have to look at the direction clearly, because the ships on the same road, the docking dock in the direction of back and forth is not the same, and wait after finding the pier, and the next boat will arrive at the station on the sign. In short, this must be familiar with the scene. There are 1 and 2 bus boats at the train station.

All pass through the Grand Canal, a classic sightseeing route! It's just that the stops are different. Today's goal is the glass island and the color island, and we have to change at the pier on the northeast side of the main island, so we made a few stops and got off the boat and walked over, and walked around a beautiful chapel by the way! As mentioned earlier, Venice has a variety of architectural styles. Walk around for weeks without eye strain.

This church is like this, it shines like a small pearl on the island, its name is the Church of Our Lady of Miracles, why does Yunluo like it so much? Because in other churches, everyone recommends what paintings, sculptures and decorations to see, and this church does not have a large number of paintings or sculptures.

The church itself is built of marble of various colors, not only in the front door but in its entirety, and is a representative work of marble architecture. Probably Yunluo is particularly fond of this kind of low-key luxury, but see the Medici Chapel :) had lunch before heading for the Glass Island.

Ordinary but authentic spaghetti bolognese with a delicious and tender taste! A seabird pecks at the cuttlefish and eats it with relish. After dinner, head to the pier to board the boat. First stop, Glass Island! Glass Island is a world-famous production place for glass products, and the craftsmanship is unique, the most widely spread is the blowing qigong of glass.

There is also a glass museum on the island. You can see a wide variety of glass products, most notably those from the 14th and 15th centuries. Personally, I think the characteristics of this island are average, especially the glass museum is very clumsy, it is a complete gimmick, and the tight schedule can be ignored. After coming out of the glass island, the puppets continued to take the boat to the next stop, the color island.

There was a small episode halfway through, and Ann first forgot his backpack in the glass museum. Then we took a boat back and returned to the main island of Venice. In short, the situation is endless, and it is really troublesome to travel freely outside! According to your stomach, you finally set foot on the color island, the road is relatively long, from the glass to the color island one way to the appearance of half an hour.

Although it may seem like a bit of a waste of time, it is also a good thing to soothe your tired body for the sake of the previous two days :) The Colored Island is about 7 kilometers from Venice and is famous for its lace weaving and the colorful houses of the island, which are required to be painted once a year.

I guess it's also for the development of tourism. The style of the water city is matched with colorful colors, it is really like a fairy tale world~ The island is also famous for lace, and most of the residents make a living by selling various lace crafts. When it comes to lace, I can't help but feel a little evil in my heart, as if this word has been linked to temptation, sexy, **, and even bad career.

In fact, the real lace was a kind of aristocratic fashion in medieval Europe, both elegant and pure! Moreover, the lace making process is very exquisite, which reflects the slow pace of life of the Italians, which is indeed very demure. Visited the Lace Museum on the island, just as the glass museum in front of it.

However, they are all included in the Venice Pass Card that Yunluo and An first met, which shows that this card is also quite pitiful. The color island is very small, basically come by boat to take pictures to visit, a moment of stay and long-distance trek compared to a little extravagant, but I personally think that MM is definitely worth dressing up to take pictures.

It's hard to find a good photo spot in the world! After leaving the colored island and returning to the main island. Yunluo proposed to transfer to bus boat No. 1 and return to the hotel with a view of the Grand Canal all the way. Ann Chuyu gladly adopted! By the way, once again, the weather is a matter of freezing today! Because I was going to take pictures on the color island, I deliberately wore a skirt + black silk.

Wear a light trench coat. As a result, it was still tolerable during the day, but at sunset, after getting on the bus, the breeze whined, shivering from the cold, and the endurance was completely to the limit. So much so that I had to shrink in the cabin later, and it was also such a toss today, laying the groundwork for the severe cold after the return trip! After 555, this temperature must be seriously considered!

Because the No. 1 bus boat is a sightseeing route, and the stations are very dense, Yunluo and An Churan on the Grand Canal for a long time, until they were hungry and growled, and finally landed. After docking, I looked back at Venice in the twilight again, and the postcard-like feeling was forever imprinted in my memory, and I said goodbye to Venice. Dream city.

Yunluo will definitely come back! For dinner, Ann Chuyu strongly proposed to pack it back to the room to eat! It's really a big compliment, the shop next to the hotel bought wine, ice cream, pizza... Take home with a full load! A full meal, ahhh

Friends have responded to Milan, the fashion capital, but they have a soft spot for the shape of the Milan Cathedral, and there is also a special expectation, that is, the masterpiece "The Last Supper" that Yunluo has made an appointment with the strength of nine cows and two tigers, what kind of visual impact will it bring?

If Rome and Florence feel that the itinerary is quite full and the time is quite abundant, then Venice is completely and completely not enough! Actually, if you want to talk about attractions. It's roughly over, but Yunluo really thinks that Venice is such a beautiful city, even if Yunluo is here for a month, it's not too much.

Just think of the delicate gondolas passing by as you stroll through the dotted islands and cross the intertwined waterways. And the cultural treasures that are everywhere and may surprise people at any time, I can't help but be fascinated again! Parting is always inevitable, and before walking into the station, I reluctantly glanced at the Grand Canal again.

Yunluo will definitely come back! Boarding the train to Milan, a melody echoed in Yunluo's mind all the way, which was Hu Yanbin's "Roman Holiday". It's very good, and the lyrics are very in line with the mood of the time: "On the train to Milan, Yunluo watched you fall asleep", and now in retrospect, the pictures from the trip will always surface.

The train ticket from Venice to Milan was originally booked on Ctrip, but it turned out that it was a ticket for departure from an inland station, so he pushed it off before the trip (because it is a full-price ticket that can be refunded 80% of the fee), and only bought a ticket from the main island train station of Venice on the ticket machine in Florence. The Trenitalia train is really much more luxurious than the two ITALO trains I've taken before!

The full price is worth it! The time in Milan is relatively relaxed, and the transportation is also convenient, so Yunliang settled on a European chain four-star hotel called NH, the conditions should be regarded as the best one in this trip, and the price is not expensive, it is to drag the box from the train station for a while. The Milan train station itself is an attraction.

It has a long history and is quite artistic. For Milan, Yunluo is roughly prepared for a modern city, so he didn't expect any surprises. But the actual feeling, compared to the dusty and noisy Dasi Haishi, is still quite quiet and peaceful. I especially liked the tram here.

Luo and An Chuyu bought a single-day transportation card at the convenience store, which is very convenient~ The hotel where they stayed was not far from the train station, so Yunluo and An Chuyu dragged their luggage directly. The hotel I stayed at was a four-star hotel in Europe, called NH, which felt similar to the domestic holiday hotel, and it was decent.

However, it can be regarded as the best hotel in the **silk tour that Yunluo and An first met. After settling in, Yunluo and An Chuyu had a meal next to the hotel, and they couldn't wait to rush to Milan's landmark, the Milan Cathedral! The church can be found everywhere on the Internet, but when you actually step out of the subway station, you will see it.

The visual impact is still unimaginable, and the churches in Italy really have an incredible magic, which makes people sigh at the greatness of human beings. Because Milan is about to host the World Expo, the top of the church is still under construction, and the scenery is slightly disturbed :) The interior of the church is more quaint, and the style of the Virgin of Flowers is more similar.

Gothic, majestic, the elements of stained glass are still loved. After the whole church visit, Yunluo came to the conclusion that although Milan is not as retro as Rome, Florence and Venice, it is only a top church that has gone through hundreds of years of vicissitudes, and this city is worth the trip! (To be continued.) )
