Is Venice worth visiting for only a day? I’m gonna be in Italy for the first time in less than a month for two weeks and I’m planning on going to Rome (4 days), Palermo (family is from there, will be there for 2 days), Naples (4 days, but might also see Pompeii and Amalfi) and Florence (4 days). I wanted to stay in Venice for a few days but lodging was way too expensive for when I’m going, but I’m thinking of taking a train from Florence to Venice and just getting a taste of it for a day.

Do 2 days in Florence, 2 days in Venice and absolutely do a day in Verona.

I know this is bait, but the fact there are venetians who think all tourists only jam themselves to San Marco and San Polo is hilarious. Not realising that the first people that attitude drives away are the ones who actually want to see all of the city and spend their money there.

>>2633027
LOL exactly

>>2629641
You can see a lot of Venice in a day, you'd ideally want a couple of days there especially if you want to take in any of the cultural stuff.

The most well known spots are absolutely ram packed normie tourists to the point where you cannot actually enjoy them. Away from those locations it's fine. Wander around without a plan and soak up the vibe.

My favourite thing was to take the boats to the outlying islands (Burano etc). sometimes the journey is the destination. but if you only have a day there could be too tight.

after nightfall you should go and break into spreepark
it's an abandoned theme park
you can climb over the fence on the path by the river
there will be signs warning about dogs but don't worry there are no dogs
after you're finished exploring go back to the river path and you'll find people having parties along the river

I'm going on a three week road trip through England and Wales later this Spring. The trip is mostly planned out at this point, however, I'm having a hard time figuring out where to go for the tail-end of our trip.

Currently, we're going to be staying in York for two days. After those two days, we'll have to begin heading down to London to catch our flight back to the US. Any recommendations for good sites to see on the way back down?

Primarily interested in prehistoric, ancient, and medieval historic sites and natural sites of wonder. I've considered heading East to check out the coast one last time before leaving, but on the way back down I'm having a hard time finding anything of particular interest between York and London. Any recommendations will be much appreciated.
>>
>>2635015
go to :
nationaltrust.org.uk
english-heritage.org.uk
look at the maps
find places close to your route
?????
profit

as one suggestion- about half way along your route is stamford- a historic town and nearby is burghley house which is worth a visit
also not far from there is fotheringhay, site of the execution of mary queen of scots. there is not much to see although the village does have a very beautiful church
i would suggest visiting peterborough cathedral which is where mary's body was taken (before it was finally taken to westminster abbey) but the city of peterborough is a lost cause
you could spend a bit of time in cambridge, lots of historical stuff there of course
>>
>>2635021
Thanks for the recommendations. I've gone through and found things from those sites and this one:
www.britainexperss.com

Mainly felt a drive to post here for recommendations from those that live there or have been before; or, perhaps places I've seen that don't appear that interesting actually are.

I remember looking at Peterborough and considered going by; what makes it a lost cause these days?

Thanks again for sharing. Anything you'd recommend checking out at Peak District National Park or nearby areas? Thought about going by there as well for a final look at the nature before returning to London.
>>
>>2635022
>I remember looking at Peterborough and considered going by; what makes it a lost cause these days?
it is overrun by eastern europeans and muslims and miscellaneous third world detritus
however if you are really into prehistoric stuff etc, you might stop by flag fen - it is a well known archaeological dig site that has turned up lots of interesting stuff
if you are interested in more recent history you might look up some of the ww2 history of the area. the whole east of england was dotted with american and other air bases during ww2, which were used to launch bomber missions into europe. most of the airfields don't exist any more and have gone back to being farmland (which is what they mostly were before the war) but there are many memorials, grave sites etc in out of the way places all around the area. see e.g. https://www.visiteastofengland.com/mota_blog/eighth-air-force-memorial-sites
another place that is generally best avoided is milton keynes but nearby is bletchley park which you have probably heard of in relation to codebreaking in ww2, alan turing etc
you can't throw a stick in england without hitting some kind of historically significant thing. another thing i recommend is getting hold of simon jenkins' books: england's 1000 best churches and england's 1000 best houses
as for the peak district the main place i can think of is chatsworth house. also that area has lots of little villages that have all kinds of weird old local customs like well dressing and stuff like that. those kinds of thing are pretty much disappearing so you should check them out before they are gone completely

Traveling to Europe for the first time, assume I know absolutely nothing, any tips, or things I should look into? The trip is going to be about a month-long, in Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and maybe Germany. I've got about $7,000 USD saved up for the trip, but hoping to save money wherever possible.

As swiss guy I would recommend to get a tourist General Train Abonnement (tourist GA) if possible or something similiar because the public transport (taxis, uber etc.included) are really pricy if you just buy tickets.

Try to eat food out of convience stores like Migros, Coop and Denner. And I would personally buy some Läderrach chocolate (is extremely expensive) but trust me worth it.

Cities to travel to you only have to choose between Zurich, Bern and Luzern.

And If you need help just ask a pedestrian for some advise or help. 90% can speak english and will have some mid - good answers to your question.

I like Switzerland a lot, but the French alps were so much cheaper, the food in France was significantly better, there was better nightlife and I prefer the aesthetics of the French towns to the ones in Swiss.

With all that said, Zermatt is worth the money if you can afford it. The Matterhorn is unreal. I've never been more awestruck in my life than taking the lift up those mountains. Photos cant do it justice

Parts of Brooklyn not so bad. Basically Manhattan lite. But the rest is a total dump at luxury prices, yeah.

New Yorkers are retarded at this point. That fun New York subculture that existed back in the 90s and 80s and earlier is just gone. There is basically no advantage at all to live in New York that can’t be had for cheaper somewhere else. But people still live there because they love the hustle and bustle or some other retarded reason.

Convince me not to travel to Scotland (as a European) this summer. Edinburgh seems like the most beautiful city in northern Europe, there are hundreds of castles waiting to be explored, the people seem sovlful as fuck and you can camp wherever you want.

Scotsman here.

Edinburgh is definitely worth a visit. It has a lot of historical charm and a classyness about it. I’d avoid August and December (the Christmas markets at Princes Street Gdns) it’s uncomfortably filled with tourists to what feels like bursting point but if that’s your thing go ahead.

Shamefully I’ve never really travelled much in my own country. I’ve never been to the Highlands but I have been to rural areas on the coasts and they are very pretty especially if you get lucky and there’s some nice weather. Castles and country estates are our big selling point but like I said I haven’t had much experience of visiting them.

As for Glasgow and other cities. Well I’m from Glasgow and in all honesty I don’t recommend coming here to stay even for a short while. A passing visit is more than enough especially if you like football (you can visit the 3 big stadiums) and I’d also recommend Kelvingrove Musuem. I suppose parts of the city centre have retained some nice Victorian architecture but beyond that it’s not worth it. My city is dirty, filled with litter and it’s lost a lot of it’s earthy charm in recent years thanks to a massive influx of third world migrants, the same thing that plagues other European cities.
>>
>>2633992
A nice crisp cold sunny day in Autumn is lovely but you’re more than likely to get dark grey clouds and drizzle that makes you want to throw yourself off a mountain. Rule no.1 about Scotland is you can rely on the weather to be unreliable.

So I was thinking on visiting Taiwan later this year, I'm researching but to be honest apart from Taipei I'm struggling to find anything interesting.

It looks a bit soulless, which it shouldn't, but that's the feeling I'm getting.

For the record I've already been to some other SEA countries (Thailand, Cambodia and Myanmar) and to Japan. Those countries seem much more appealing to me.

Maybe I'm just and idiot, but I'd like to know your thoughts and experiences of the country.

FB groups or Taiwanese rental websites. Airbnb is technically illegal in Taiwan I think.

I stayed in Saranda for a while and it was pretty nice. You can get a decent sea view condo for like $4-500 a month if you don't go in July/August. But the city is dead outside those months. Central Tirana is nice, but outside of there some places are real shitty

Also hope you like sitting in cafes because that's all there is to fuckin do in the city here, Albanians are insane about cafes, even the bars are just cafes with alcohol

For a day's worth? Depends on your lifestyle and where, too. A typical day's spending in District 1 will be different from District 2, etc.
As long as you don't use cash to buy furniture, plane tickets, or whatever, a day's food for a Westerner should be around 5-10 bucks for street food and local Vietnamese restaurants (think of Banh Cuon, Com Tam, Pho, Banh Mi, etc.)
When you enter *proper restaurants* serving either local or foreign cuisine, expect somewhere around 35-50 bucks per visit. Con Ga Mai is always a safe bet, they have chicken platters in different styles.
You can't reasonably expect picrel to accept VISA payment.
If you are not sure, just ask. This is something you'll have to acquire a sense for.
