Italy - Rome, Florence, Bologna, San Marino and Venice
hangchoi:
We spent about 4 hours in San Marino and then we went back to Rimini by bus. We still have time to take a quick look of Rimini, a city in east coast of Italy famous in breach. This city in the time of Roman Empire was a port. We walked into the old city area to have a look.
Straight into the city center is Piazza Tre Martiri, on the way you will pass by a church Tempio Malatestiano.
The third picture is a digging work showing the floor level in Roman time with the marble floor and wall finishes.

Arco Augusto, an arch for King Augustus. There is a stand telling tourist about the evolution of the arch. It was somehow renovated quite a lot.....
hangchoi:
Next day we went to Venice, our last stop. From Bologna to Venice the train travel time is about 1.5 hours. Some people would like to stay away from the Venice island because the room rate is cheaper and less crowded, but we had booked a guesthouse for our stay inside the Venice island. The flat is quite large and I think it can accommodate at least 4 people. My room has a nice canal view too.
hangchoi:
We arrived at early morning, so we decided to go the outside islands of Venice. We took the water bus to Burano and Murano.
Murano is famous of its glass making, you can visit a glassware factory there.
hangchoi:
Burano is more popular. To go to Burano, you need to change the water bus at Murano. So..... a long queue again. The far end of the picture is the ferry to Burano.
The journey from Venice island to Murano is about 15 minutes but from Murano to Burano is 30 minutes.
