The most beautiful town in Cinque Terre

#winhkflight #manarola #cinqueterre #laspezia #Italy Manarola is the most beautiful town, out of the 5 towns in Cinque Terre. Manarola is the most beautiful town because the houses over there are bright and colourful. Is picturesque. I would recommend to stay a night here to enjoy their local culture and their outdoor activities instead of the touch and go. Their outdoor activities include boat riding, sunbathing, swim at the harbour and cliff jumping. If you are dare enough, you definitely wanted to the cliff jumping. You should also enjoy their gelato and seafood. I want to travel to Hong Kong to experience a different culture and enjoy their food.

A Serene Escape to Cinque Terre

Cinque Terre is an enchanting coastal destination that should be on every traveler's bucket list. Nestled along the rugged Italian Riviera, this picturesque collection of five charming fishing villages offers a unique and memorable experience. Each of the five villages—Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore—has its own distinct character, with colorful houses clinging to the cliffs overlooking the azure waters of the Ligurian Sea. Walking through the narrow lanes lined with vibrant flowers, you'll feel like you've stepped into a postcard. One of the best ways to explore Cinque Terre is by hiking along the scenic coastal trails that connect the villages. The paths offer breathtaking views of the sea, vineyards, and terraced landscapes, making every step worthwhile. Be sure to bring comfortable shoes and a camera to capture the mesmerizing beauty of the surroundings. To truly immerse yourself in the local culture, indulge in the mouthwatering seafood delicacies offered in the traditional trattorias and family-owned restaurants. Savor the fresh catch of the day, paired with locally produced wine, and let your taste buds rejoice in the flavors of the Mediterranean. Don't miss the opportunity to bask in the sun on Monterosso's sandy beaches, where you can relax and unwind beneath the warm Italian sunshine. The refreshing sea breeze and the sound of crashing waves create a serene atmosphere that will rejuvenate your mind and body. When planning your visit, keep in mind that Cinque Terre can get crowded, especially during peak tourist seasons. To fully enjoy the experience, consider visiting in spring or fall when the weather is still pleasant, and the crowds are thinner. Overall, Cinque Terre offers a captivating blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and delectable cuisine. It's a destination that will leave you with cherished memories and a yearning to return. So, pack your bags, leave no trace behind, and embark on a serene escape to this Italian coastal gem. #CinqueTerreEscape #CoastalCharm #ItalianRiviera #falltrip#mytravelhacks#localguides#familytrip

Fantastic Summer Break Vacation

#summerbreak Welcome to the beauty of La Spezia. La Spezia is located in Liguria and it well known for the technical naval museum. Monterosso Al Mare,Vernazza, Rio Maggiore, Manarola, and Corniglia are the five town that represent Cinque Terre. Corniglia is my least favorite while Manarola is my favorite 🤩 you can travel between Cinque terre by train- trains run every 10-20 mins and it will take you to each town. There are actually trails between each town if you are willing and like to hike- for me it was to hot and also didn’t have enough time to explore- but no matter how you choose to visit you must have good shoes since you will be walking a lot! I will suggest you to spend a least 2-3 days in order to see everything and experience the surroundings. Most popular food here is seafood! you can grab a cone of fried seafood and e joy by the sea or simply sit at any of the local restaurants in town.

#notre-Dame de la garde# Marseille# one most biggest catholic Church in Marseille. Spledid view of the port of Marseille

Here, another famous attraction outside Marseille is located in Marseille. It is also the most amazing church in Marseille: the Church of Our Lady of Marseille. Not looking at the church itself, as the commanding heights of Marseille, you can take a high-profile panoramic view of Marseille here, regardless of which direction you look at, have an invincible view. There are a lot of tourists coming here, but they are not crowded. They are not as boring as the domestic scenic spots and the messy environment. Everyone is quietly standing on the edge of the wall, or talking, or enjoying the scenery, or relatives, or Playful. This church, also built in the 19th century, is still a gorgeous Byzantine style, with a striking faade that gives it a strong visual impact. On the top of the bell tower is a statue of the Virgin Mary, which is 9.7 meters high. It feels shining all the time in the sunshine.

The beautiful Trevi Fountain ⛲️

#rometrip Getting There - The Trevi Fountain is fountain in the Trevi district of Rome designed by an Italian architect back in the 17th - 18th century. It was designed by Nicola Salvi but different architects completed it. Getting to it is easy, you simply have to go to the Quirinale district in Rome, very close to the main station of Roma Termini. Attractions - I can say that you cannot complete or saying to have made your trip to Rome without visiting this baroque masterpiece. There are many attractions near by such as Carrabba Marble. Hotels - Hotel Fontana named by the fountain is cheap option however, if you are looking for more luxury experience you may want to option for Umiltà 36 or Singer Palace. Food & Restaurants - Breakfast at hotel Fontana is really cool, for 15 euro you can really get a good breakfast while watching the fountain. Piccolo buco is well know for pizza near the fountain and trattoria Al Moro for local food. Shopping - Trevi Galleria, La Rinascente and many botteghino. Botteghino sells cool items! if you are up for some high end brands, I would suggest you to go to Via del Corso in Rome. Have a fun! 🍹☕️ 🍕

the Magic and Reality of the Trevi Fountain

The Trevi Fountain. 💙 This was my first time visiting and I was in awe! What a beautiful absolutely magical place! Located in Rome, Italy, it is one of the most famous and iconic fountains in the world. ⛲️ It is featured in many movies and photos, and is often depicted as a serene (exhibit A - the photo which I have shared with you) and romantic spot where visitors can throw coins into the fountain. The reality of visiting the Trevi Fountain is a little different. Friends had told me it’s SOOO busy. While I thought I was prepared, I could never have imagined just how BUSY it gets. The crowds there were more than I expected. But, then again I can totally understand why. What to expect: The fountain may be crowded with tourists, busy and noisy, difficult to get a photo with a clear view of the Trevi and can have quite a bit of litter around. Managing expectations: be prepared for the crowds and hustle and bustle that come with this magical location. The Trevi Fountain remains a must-see place! 🤩🫶🏼The beauty and history of the fountain make it worth the visit. If you want to see it when it’s a little less crowded, try to visit early in the morning or later in the evening when there may be less people around. Photo tip: work those angles. There were at least another 50 people if not more around when I was taking this photo! ~ 📌SAVE POST FOR FUTURE TRAVELS 📍 Trevi Fountain - Piazza di Trevi, 00187 Roma RM, Italy ⏰ time visited the Trevi fountain was at 6:30AM in October ~ • 💚✨ . . . . . . #trevifountain #rome #romeitaly #italygram #italia #roma #italytrip #exploreitaly #iloverome #romelife #europeexplores #thingstodoinrome #visititaly
