Back to my traveling story, never expect too much. In my previous trip, even though Zurich or Geneva is the big city in Switzerland, those of them were not included in my trip. Mainly coz of the sorrow lion. Due to my fren had been to Switzerland, so she was the one who planned for the Switzerland part and I was in charged for the Italy part. She does did the research from the travel guide, friend, internet and so on. But sometimes you cant really believe in those pictures. Picture can be fake and lie. You can use different technique to edit the picture. However, normally if u travel to a new country, the first city will be travel are their capital city. But I not mean that Lucern is not beautiful enough, indeed, Lucern is gorgeous. However, the sorrow lion is quite disappointing us. As the all the information stated there are monument, so we are expecting we are going to a more grand places. While we were there, only three words can describe our feeling, what the fuck, is this the attraction that we are looking for. It is just behind a post office and very simple and crude. No further description about the history, only a lion sculpture lying at the hole. And what the point for us to visit the sorrow lion monument and totally dont know about the story behind.
Beautiful Royal Crescent
But The Fact Is......
Another example is Bath. Bath is nice too, but we are very disappointed about the most beautiful attraction--Royal Crescent. If u have watched The Duchess, u will know which attraction I refer to. I have a lot of expectation about this attraction and I just want to see how beautiful it is. But the only things she gave me was disappointed. We started to doubt it is the right attraction that we looking for. Is the picture too perfect or the light too good to mislead us.
What Happened to My Bridge of Sigh???
Venice
Venice as well, a lot of ppl say Venice is a romantic city. In my opinion, I think Venice is nice to visit once in ur life time but not really romantic. The buildings are old, the water is stink and is a very small town. But there are quite different from other city in Italy. My fren ask me do u think Venice is romantic? I told her no matter where u are, if u are with ur beloved, any country also can be romantic. Just depend who is ur company.
where is your next place you plan?
