Florence

Florence..i've never heard of this city before this trip. But, i did search on the interesting places of this city. Apparently, there were lots of it.

It took us almost 4 hours to reach here from Pisa and it was already dark at that time. So, when the tour guide brought us to the Michelangelo Park..i was so eager to explore the panoramic view of Ponte Vecchio and Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore from afar. It was amazing..what a breathtaking beauty.

Before we're on the move again, i took a picture with the Statue of David by Michelangelo (awww...malu..nudity giteww).

Then, the bus stopped somewhere that i couldn't remember the place..so we have to walk. I love this WALK..really, i always look at this WALK only in a movie..n now, i'm doing it..hehe.

About 15 minutes later, we reached at Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchio. Another breathtaking moment of the golden vision of this place. There were lots of statues here and there.

Spooky..that was what i thought when we stepped at Loggia dei Lanzi. Now, thinking of it..the statues of this place reminds me of Clash of the Titans-the movie.

Well, there was the statue of Perseus with the Head of Medusa at Loggia dei Lanzi

..and the Fountain of Neptune

At the end of the day, we went to Piazza Santa Croce before we stopped for our dinner (btw, the seafood olio tasted really good).
