魂殇丽江:“The Ambassadors' Hall in the Governor's Palace of Padua was meticulously decorated and extraordinarily luxurious. It seems that when the hall was built, the builders wanted to make foreigners feel powerful and glorious. Therefore, the grand scale of the Ambassadors' Hall, the luxury of the furniture and the expensive decorative materials can be compared with priceless works of art.”

Calvin在路上:“The River Valley Square is one of the largest squares in Europe. There is even a canal in the square. There are 78 exquisite sculptures on both sides of the river, including the founder of the River Valley Square. Now the surrounding area of ​​the square has become a huge market, and the middle is lined with trees, fountains and a huge lawn, a good place for leisure.”

The streets were empty on Sunday, but when I walked to St. Anthony's Basilica, it immediately became lively. There was a weekend market around the church and the church itself was very famous. I gathered around the church when I had time.”

HewisLamilton:“It is recommended to buy tickets in advance. There is a long queue for buying tickets on site. Those with tickets can enter directly from another entrance. If you only visit the church, you can come out in ten minutes. It is mainly the dome and murals. There is a museum on the second floor. The ticket is 7 euros.”

学校🏫:“## St. Mark's Square: Venice's soul living room, an open-air celebration that never ends **Definitely worth it! **Step into St. Mark's Square (Piazza San Marco), and you stand at the apex of Venice's beating heart and glory. Napoleon called it “the most beautiful living room in Europe,” and it is not just a geographical center, but an open-air theater that condensed millennia of history, art and life, the ultimate classroom for understanding Venetian temperament. ### **Strike the shocking highlights of the soul**: * ** The ring stage of the architectural epic**: The square itself is a museum without a roof. Look at: ** St. Mark's Cathedral** The golden dome and gorgeous mosaic facade, combining the Byzantine Eastern mysteries and the magnificent Gothic beauty; **Governor's Palace**Lace-like pink Gothic arcade, showing the majesty of maritime supremacy;** Bell Tower** towering into the clouds, such as red sceptres directly to the sky; **New and old Executive Officers' Corridor**(Procuratie Vecchie & Nuove) Elegant arcades are connected into giant curtains, framed to restore the skyline. Different times and styles of buildings resonate in harmony here, forming an unparalleled visual symphony**. *** Flowing daily and celebration**: The magic of the square is that it never solidifies. **Morning light micro**, the slate reflects the soft light of Wuhu, the sound of the water washed by the cleaners is the prelude to the city's awakening;**Daylight**, the pigeons circled like flowing clouds, tourists in the open-air coffee seat (such as the century-old store Florian) drinking Italian concentration, the band's classical melody with the sea breeze; **At the height of the tide, the water reflected the columns and the sky, and pedestrians stepped on the makeshift trestle bridge to become a unique magical scenery in Venice. Here is the best box for observing the 100 states of all beings**. ***Light and Shadow Magic and Space Poetics**: The square changes its appearance with the change of light. When the sunset melts gold, the cathedral's golden roof burns like fire, and the Governor's Palace is stained with honey; the lights are on at the beginning of the Hualien, the lights under the arcade are lit like star chains, and the silhouette of the clock tower sinks into the dark blue night. Its trapezoidal graphic design (82 meters wide at one end, At the other end, only 57 meters) cleverly created the visual depth of the church from the Piazzetta by the sea, the complex is propelled like a stage set, and the momentum is magnificent. ###**Don't miss the finishing experience**: ***Clock Tower - Panoramic view**: At 98 meters high, you can see the beauty of the red-tile maze, blue waterways and square geometry (detailed in the previous article). * **Night tour exclusive tranquility**: When the tide of people disperses, the moonlight is spilled on the slate floor, and the corridor column casts a long shadow, so that you can experience the sacred and poetic nature of the square**. * **Feel the "wonder of high tide"**: If there is a climax in the autumn and winter rainy season, the water is like a mirror reflection of the building, and it is a unique Venetian memory to walk in rain boots (see tide forecast!).”
