Italy has beautiful natural scenery, a long history and rich cultural heritage, and is one of the countries with the richest tourism resources in the world. According to the confirmation of UNESCO, Italy ranks first in the world in terms of human history and cultural heritage. It receives about 4 million foreign tourists every year, and its foreign exchange income ranks among the top in the world. If you have to give three reasons to travel to Italy, it should be: shopping, food, travel! Passionate Sicily, clear and charming Mediterranean scenery, Milan, the capital of fashion, Rome full of stories, what are you waiting for? Go to this warm country quickly! Shopping in Italy: Innovative design concept may be the proudest place for Italians. The works of Italian fashion designers are the leaders of global fashion trends. If you are lucky enough to come to Milan, one of the four fashion capitals in the world, I believe you will feel that your eyes are not enough: Italian fashion, leather shoes, handbags, leather clothes, gold and silver ornaments. Generally speaking, the best time for foreign tourists to shop in Italy is January and July every year. Because this time is the season-changing time of goods, many stores, including some well-known brands, are selling at reduced prices. The general sales time starts from January or mid-July and lasts for about one month. Many goods are sold at half price, such as rags or shoes and boots, and the discount can be lower. It is very cost-effective to buy at this time. In addition, when shopping in Italy, China tourists need to pay attention to the business hours of the shops. Generally speaking, most shops are closed on Saturday and Sunday. And every afternoon to 4 pm, some shops are closed for lunch break. Friendly reminder: If you are a loyal fan of world famous brands, I suggest you ask for and keep the invoice when shopping, so that the customs can check it when you refund the tax. Please ask the tour guide for details about the tax refund. If you want to buy food from Italy and bring it back to China, you need to know the relevant regulations of China Animal and Plant Quarantine Department on the entry of animal products (such as cheese, sausage, raw ham, etc.) in advance to avoid unnecessary troubles and economic losses. Gourmet Italy: When you come to a country with world-class cuisine, you can't live up to the title of "gourmet" without "gluttony". First of all, I have to mention the Italian food spokesperson-spaghetti. There are 4 kinds of noodle treaties produced in Italy, which are mainly divided into four categories: linear, granular, hollow and fancy. Noodles are made of flour ground from local hard wheat, and the protein content is about 5% higher than that of ordinary wheat, which is rich in nutrition and tough in taste. Some noodles are made of eggs. Spaghetti is delicious and attractive, because the sauce with noodles smells good. For a long time, Italians have explored many methods to prepare noodles and sauces, and made full and bold use of all animal and plant raw materials endowed by nature to prepare various sauces with rich flavor, making Italian pasta famous all over the world. There are many famous and special dishes in Italy, including: spaghetti with onion and bacon sauce in Rome, saffron braised rice in Milan, roast suckling pig in Sardinia, veal in Florence, macaroni and seafood sauce noodles and grilled fish in Naples, fried bagels and cereals in Genoa, minced meat noodles and minced meat lasagna in Bologna, raw ham and edible fungi in Parma, cheese in Pamgiano, desserts in Sicily and pea rice in Venice. How to eat so many delicious foods is reasonable? Generally speaking, you should drink aperitif before eating Italian dinner, such as dry or sweet kambali and martini. Cocktails and champagne can also be used as aperitifs. Serve appetizing cold dishes, such as sausages, olives, sardines and fresh lettuce. Eat immediately after the appetizer and season with olive oil. The appetizer cold dish is followed by the first course, that is, the first course, which is pasta, macaroni or rice. The second course is meat dishes, such as steak, roast leg of lamb or fish. The third course is cheese or ham. The fourth course is dessert or seasonal fruit. Usually, an espresso is served after lunch. Italians usually drink at dinner.

drink red wine when eating meat dishes; Drink white wine when eating fish or seafood; Have dessert and sweet wine after dinner. Non-drinkers usually drink mineral water with or without steam Roaming in Italy: There are so many places worth visiting in Italy that every time you go, it will give you a 1% freshness. But there is one place you can't miss. Venice, a world famous city, has maintained its charming style with its glorious history. Since the eighth century, Venice has been ruled by the Governor of the Republic of China. By the tenth century, the Republic of China had become a famous power in the Mediterranean region. All Venetian merchants are as brave and enterprising as the Kelpolo family. In 1932, the Venice Film Festival, the first film festival in the world, was held here. Now, it is still one of the most important international film festivals in the world. In Venice, you can walk around, or take a popular cruise, or spend more money on a boat trip. Let's start with the Grand Canal. The canal surrounds the whole city for more than three kilometers, and the reflections of various palaces can be seen on the river. Go straight ahead and you'll see PontediRialto. The center of the city is St. Kyle Square, where St. Kyle's Cathedral is located. This church inlaid with gold-rimmed patterns and precious marble was built in the 9th century. Since then, it has been destroyed and repaired many times, and it is still a beautiful work of art. Next, you should visit the Duke's Palace, which is the residence of the governor of Venice and the seat of the government of Venice. This building, built in the ninth century, is located next to St. Kyle's Square and faces the sea, which is impressive. There is a bridge of sighs between the palace and the prison, connecting the two places. In St. Kyle Square, there are 12 pillars facing the sea, two of which have statues at the top. At the top of a pillar stands a winged lion statue, which is the symbol of Venice; At the top of another pillar stands the original statue of Venice guarding the sacred Teodoro. Of course, you shouldn't miss the museums there: the Academy Art Museum is one of the most important museums in Italy, and the Guggenheim Collection houses representative works of modern artists such as Picasso. In addition, there are several small islands around Venice that are well worth visiting. Having said that, I guess you can't help but be curious and yearning for Italy now. Don't worry, Italy has a warm climate and four distinct seasons. Every season has its unique natural scenery and unexpected gains you can't imagine. So as long as you have time, Italy will let you glad you came.
