Beautiful Venice ♥
Next day was Venice, or people also usually call it Venezia, taking around 2.5hours by train from Milan. This city is unique, cause the transportation is only by Vaporetto, which is a water bus. The 24hour ticket for this bus is a bit expensive, €18. The hotel room where I stayed was very big, a classic design with a small river as I looked outside the window :)
I spent the day going to St Mark Square, full of old architecture building and souvenir sellers. Every single view of this city is so beautiful :) Like really.. The sun, the river, the vaporetto, the gondolas, the tourists, all of them. Anyway, the most attractive part of visiting this city is that all the view I saw there were totally the same like what I saw in The Tourist movie. Everytime I found where Jolie’s hotel was or the likely shooting locations from that movie, I was like aaah I really am here!!
I spent most of the day riding a gondola. Fortunately I met a gondola rider offering me a special price for 40minutes ride which costs €50. It’s cheap I think, cause normally they’d offer more or less €60 or even €100 as it gets closer to night. The famous Rialto bridge isn’t that fascinating, it’s old and dirty so I just skipped.
The gondola rider told me a little bit about The Tourist movie, and he said he was in the movie haha so then I watched the film again to check but then I think he lied. He’s really funny though, singing along his riding and told us stories about Casanova.
