In this lesson we talk about a few places you could visit on your next vacation.
One of those places is Italy. So here are some suggestions to consider if you visit this country.
Florence, in the Tuscany region of Italy, is home to approximately 366,000 inhabitants. It was home of Leonardo Da Vinci, Machiavelli and Michelangelo among others, it has earned the title of ‘the Renaissance capital of the World.
Venice is a city defined by all those who have seen it as one of the most beautiful in the world. It has more than a hundred tiny islets, packed closely together around canals. The city is in a lagoon, protected by the longer island of Venice Lido.
Venice is on the north-west of Italy. Because of its popularity amongst tourists, the best season to visit the “City of Gondoliers” is probably winter, when hotel rates are more accessible and the city streets are a little less full. There are also two major events in Venice such as the Venice Carnival in February and the “Biennale” (a world famous modern arts festival that takes place in summer every two years). August is definitely not the best time to go because it gets really hot and humid.
Lucca, capital city of Lucca province, is located in Tuscany, in the northern part of central Italy. Situated on the Serchio River, Lucca is near the Tyrrhenian Sea. With a population of around 85,900 inhabitants, it is one of Italy’s finest tourist spots.
