Lago di Como

The fourth stop in the North of Italy was Como to visit the third largest lake in Italy.
The adventure began by looking at the boat for the trip. A pleasant old model. The Concordia.
The images speak for themselves.
A happy traveler :)

Verona

After leaving Venice the next stop was Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliet.
Symbolism of romance, visitors leave their registration :)
(photo of one of the walls of the house of Juliet)
The famous balcony.
Another symbolism, this time of good luck.
Arena, the roman amphitheater.
Square Erbe.
Duomo, not as big as in Milan.
Castle of San Pedro.
Garibaldi bridge.
Pietra bridge.
Adige River.
The city is beautiful, very picturesque, as we strolled through the streets seems that we are part of a novel by Shakespeare.
If you go to Italy, don't miss this city :)

Grand Canal

The second stop on our trip through northern Italy was Venice. About 300 km from Milan to the city of canals.

While we were walking through the city we had the opportunity to embark on a journey through the Grand Canal, who is the city's largest waterway.

Here we are in the vaporetto.


It's amazing to look at the margins of this channel and watch the facades of buildings.








Rialto Bridge, the oldest and most famous bridge over the grand canal.

The gondolas are everywhere :)

Milan

It was here that began our journey through northern Italy and then go to Sardinia to finally lie on the beach. 2 weeks of Italian culture and rest :)

Arrival at Milan Central Station.
Duomo. The monument is immense ... 157 meters tall. The Duomo seen from a terrace where we only pay 7€ for a coke...cheap :)



The entry of one of the streets that are connected to the Piazza del Duomo.





Completely covered on the ceiling.

We tried to go shopping but the stores did not have our standards :)



A perfect angle on a monument not know.

The Castle.

One day visit to start a great trip.

Chinatown

This site is a delight. You never find a quiet place, people everywhere, everybody sells something, simply amazing ... for those who like confusion :)
