It was a time to visit magnetic and busy streets of Firenze (Florence). The stroll on the streets under illuminated lamps brought me a nostalgia feeling of ancestors village "Rampura" in Madhya Pradesh, India. The crowd, lights and music, it had everything you need to make it a perfect romantic evening. The walk over the "Ponte Vecchio" arch bridge on Arno river and the sounds of guitar strings make you sing yourself. The other places to visit are Pitti Palace, Boboli's garden (if you are with kids, skip it), Cathedral (the exteriors are beautiful and must see in day as well night under fog lights). The sunset at Michele Angelo gives you a aerial view of historical center.
The journey continued to PISA where the leaning tower and the green lush lawn in front of it was awaiting for us to capture the moments in our lenses. The perfect weather made our day followed by sumptuous lunch at Tandur in city center.
The last hop in the journey was Levanto and our first experience to stay in hostel. It was not to visit the small town but rather to begin our journey next morning to most beautiful coastal scenery of Cinque Terre (Five Villages). All five villages
(Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore) are unique and beautiful. If you are young and without kids you can hike from one village to other. Else you can always buy a day ticket of 12 EURO to hop on train...
