Sunset sky after rain. The section of wall near the Jewish cemetery (Piazza dei Miracoli, Pisa). What a wonderful, timeless light!
Cielo al tramonto dopo la pioggia. Il tratto di mura vicino al cimitero ebraico (Piazza dei Miracoli, Pisa). Che luce meravigliosa e fuori dal tempo!

hi cat!! i have a favor to ask - would you be able to tell me some of your favorite places/cities/anything in italy? my cousins & i are planning a trip & are a bit overwhelmed with choices haha
YES but first i have to warn you that i have barely scratched the surface of the beauty that's in this country and most importantly i have barely been in the south and on the islands except for i went to naples a decade ago so i can't really recommend anything there which is a shame because the south of italy is INCREDIBLE. for instance my dream is to take a road trip through sicily and wander around for like a month. again i can't really speak on it because i've never been but i think it must be one of the most splendid places in the world and it's full of ancient greek architecture and the sea is wonderful and the cities are full of beautiful art and i can't wait to go and see it all with my own eyes.
of course i live in tuscany and specifically near florence and i think florence is the best of the best in the whole world and i think you should definitely go and see it. but also it's a small-ish city and while exploring it fully would take a lifetime i think if your goal is to visit a few places and cities in the same holiday you can probably get away with spending like four days in florence and then go somewhere else! places that i think you should definitely visit while in florence are: the uffizi galleries of course, orsanmichele (i got chocked up the first time i visited because it's so beautiful and the views of the city are stunning), the cathedral of santa maria del fiore where you can decide if you want to climb up the bell tower or the dome (or both if you're very fit!) and i particularly love the medici chapels and the museum galleria palatina in palazzo pitti. and everything is in the city center so it's easy to walk everywhere and walking everywhere you'll be able to see the piazza della signoria with our most beautiful palazzo vecchio and the ponte vecchio!
while you're in florence you might want to go to a few nearby places like you could take an hour train to pisa where you honestly just need a couple hours to bask in the glory of the piazza dei miracoli (which houses the famous crooked tower but also a gorgeous cathedral and baptistery). very near florence (like a short bus ride away) is fiesole which is a cutie little mini town where you can get one beautiful view over florence and also see etruscan/roman excavations and ruins including a beautiful roman theater! also near florence but slightly harder to reach is certaldo where one of the fathers of italian literature was born and which is famous nowadays for being gorgeous and old and having a beautiful beautiful palazzo pretorio. siena is almost a must see in my opinion and it's a train ride away from florence and it is just a beauty. so incredible. further south we have two absolutely stunning little gems called san gimignano and volterra which you might know from twilight SHDJDKJF but no seriously they are so beautiful and you eat so well there and both are so worth seeing.
liguria is just north of tuscany and i know it a little. i think of course that cinque terre are incredible and so italian and great but i will add that a little seaside town called portovenere should absolutely be added to the itinerary if you're gonna be close because it's beautiful and it houses one of the best things i have ever seen in my life which is byron grotto (yes like the poet! apparently he would swim out of there to go reach shelley?) which is soooo gorgeous.
so like. i don't know because i am biased and i was born and raised here but i think tuscany (and that corner of liguria) is the most beautiful gorgeous and perfect little triangle of land in the whole world and if you're coming to italy from everywhere else i think that's the first place you should visit.
of course milan and rome and turin and naples and venice are all incredible and worth of a (long) visit and i have found such beauty and met incredible people and been left speechless by what i've seen in each of those cities but maybe that's for another post and also i definitely do not know them nearly as well as i know florence but i think you would love to visit them.
IN CONCLUSION. i don't know that this will have clared your head in any way at all. it's a bit all over the place. i love florence and i love tuscany but italy is beautiful in every corner in every way!

Bandiera gigante della Palestina sulla Torre di Pisa. Blitz dei manifestanti
Hanno eluso la sorveglianza al termine di un corteo e sono saliti sul monumento
Tumblr media
Le immagini della bandiera e della manifestazione (Foto dalla pagina Facebook Exploit Pisa)
Pisa, 17 novembre 2023 – Hanno eluso la sorveglianza e sono riusciti ad introdursi all’interno della Torre di Pisa. Poi, una volta in cima, hanno appeso una bandiera gigante della Palestina. Blitz dei manifestanti dei centri sociali questa mattina in piazza dei Miracoli.
Al termine di una manifestazione pro Palestina, gli attivisti sono riusciti in qualche modo a salire sulla Torre e da lì hanno appeso un bandierone palestinese e acceso alcuni fumogeni. Sul posto sono intervenute le forze dell’ordine.
A rivendicare il gesto è stato in seguito il Collettivo Universitario Autonomi di Pisa, che attraverso una nota ha parlato di “Piazza dei Miracoli come piazza della Palestina”. La manifestazione studentesca, si legge nel volantino, era stata proclamata per chiedere il "cessate il fuoco e libertà per la Palestina”.

The crowds of visitors who invaded monuments and museums with enthusiasm and passion demonstrate the enormous and transversal attraction that cultural assets are capable of exerting.
Making culture open and participatory, giving people the freedom to use it so that this creates an experience. Not a simple passage to say "I've been there", but something deeper, which puts you in contact on a cognitive and even more emotional level with what you are going through.
Last night there were those who flocked to museums, without necessarily having a background in art studies. It does not matter. Someone turns up their noses but I say it doesn't matter. Exchanging impressions among strangers in front of a sinopia or a work by Giovanni Pisano is sharing, it is love for beauty, it is creating an experience.
Last night there were those who entered the cathedral, those who preferred the concert, those who went to the museums and those who simply stayed to play on the lawns in front of the monuments. It was a perfectly successful collective ritual because it was free. Everyone was put in a position to react to art and beauty as they felt.
This is my idea of culture, art and anthropology.

Getting Lost in Italy
Tumblr media
Italian Culture
Italian culture is composed of a beautiful mix of art, architecture, history, music, and food, making it a must-see destination. Italy is home to a wide variety of historical landmarks and sites, from the Leaning Tower of Pisa to the Colosseum in Piazza dei Miracoli, all sure to make your visit one to remember! Much of the culture in Italy is strongly influenced by religion, the Roman Catholic Church and Roman Mythology being the most prominent in historical and cultural aspects such as their architecture and art. In terms of customs, family orientation and a strong sense of community is what Italians are known for, and when visiting this country, expect gracious hospitality from the residents. 
Tumblr media
Food
Italy is famous for its high-quality cuisine that has become popular all over the world. This ranges from different variations of pizzas, pastas, risotto, cured meats, seafoods, cheeses, and my personal favorite, gelato! All of the ingredients used in Italian dishes are fresh and flavorful, and there is simply nothing like it! Whether you are fine dining or just roaming the cobblestone streets looking for a quick bite, Italy has some of the best cuisine if you’re a foodie looking to try a little bit of everything. In comparison to the United States, tipping is not as common in Italy, however it is important to show gratuity to these friendly residents.
Tumblr media
Attractions and Activities
Rome is the capital of Italy and home to numerous historical events, and it is because of this that there is so much to see and experience. In Rome, ancient ruins of the Colosseum and the Pantheon monument are unforgettable spots. I would recommend visiting the Vatican City, home of the Roman Catholic Church, which holds the gorgeous Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica, featuring some of the world’s most famous religious and renaissance style art/architecture. Florence is another go-to destination for gorgeous architecture and museums. Be sure to check out the Academia Gallery to marvel at The Statue of David! While you're in Florence, don't forget (though it's hard to miss) the breathtaking Duomo Catholic Church, which features stunning gothic architecture. When visiting these holy places, make sure to dress modestly and be respectful of the traditions and customs. If you venture to Venice, the Grand Canal is one of the main waterways that takes you through the beautiful Italian architecture. A gondola ride through the gorgeous bridges is something you have to experience for yourself! And finally, if you’re feeling adventurous, take a trip to southern Italy to the Amalfi Coast to see picturesque views and colorful towns that line the breathtaking cliffs.
Tumblr media
Transportation
Italy has a great array of transportation methods that make getting to one city to another quick and easy for travelers. Depending on where you are, the most popular methods of transportation include trains, buses, and taxis. Italy has very narrow streets, so the best way to really get around the cities is by walking, but I would recommend the trains if you are traveling long distances, as they are very straight forward and inexpensive. If you happen to find yourself in Venice, and are wanting a more scenic method of travel, the city offers a considerably large network of transportation through canals using gondolas, ferries, and water taxis. These rides are extremely fun and I would highly recommend if you get the chance!
