Milan and Florence: Leaving the Westin Grand Hotel early this morning, we were transported from Mariano to Florence. We then boarded the high-speed train again, arriving at our destination. We were treated to a hands-free stroll through the Uffizi Gallery and Florence's historic center, just like the locals. Thank you, and I'm amazed by the seafood!
At Milan Station, we stumbled upon Shanghai's most popular Mobike and immediately hopped on to show off our rides! Upon arriving in Florence, Joe immediately brought out his signature skill: wayfinding! He led us through the main streets of Florence's historic center, ensuring we didn't get lost during our three hours of free time in the afternoon! The pasta with pesto and olive oil at Dante's House and the mushroom risotto for dinner were both incredibly delicious.
At noon, we toured the famous Uffizi Gallery with our guide, Mr. Zhou. We saw paintings like The Birth of Venus, Spring, and a portrait of Emperor Kangxi. Inside the gallery, we also had a fantastic view of the Ponte Vecchio. The small houses that once stood on the bridge, where a meat market was built, have surprisingly survived to this day.
