Gianicolo Hill

Since I was in Rome for a week, I had to visit all tourist sights, it was a must! One of my friends did a research about Gianicolo Hill, and we all decided that this must be viewed from early morning when sun starts rising. Gianicolo Hill is known as of one the tallest hills in Italy. We looked at some picture on Internet and we were so stunned and excited for the sunrise n Gianicolo Hill. We woke up at 4 o’clock in the morning, and jogged to the hill. When we got there, luckily it was still dark. Every 5-10 minutes I was taking pictures. The view was one of the most incredible views that my eyes ever witnessed. You can overlook most of the city from the top of the hill, which makes it a very breathtaking view, especially to see the city's dome and skyline from far. Also, you could see the mount Vesuvius! Isn’t it so incredible? I never saw anything so beautiful! The hill contains very historic sights such as San Pietro in Montorio that is a very unique design of Roman architectural history. There's also the fountain (Fontana dell'Acqua Paola) It is a monumental fountain that was made from marbles and located right beside San Pietro in Montorio church.  Spending almost 3 hours just looking at the beautiful sunrise was absolutely gorgeous! I tried to make a collage from the beginning of the sunrise and the end, but honestly if you see it with your own eyes it’s so much different and breathtaking! Gianicolo Hill is a must in Rome :)

Street performers of Italy

As me and my friends were exploring Rome,
mostly Vatican City and near Colossus, something amazingly weird at the same
time caught our attention. As it was tourists’ sight, we saw many shocking and
inspiring street talents. You know how you go to the centre of your city and
there are people singing, dancing or drawing something? Yeah. Rome is known as
the city incredible beautiful architecture. While my friends and I were in
those “talent areas” we realized how many people were taking pictures and
looking at the street performers. I have seen many amazing and weird street
talents before, but this one was the craziest so far. Or maybe I’m just
exaggerating? Basically it was two men, one was sitting in the Lotus pose while
he was holding his partner, who was sitting on some piece of wooden stick. I
know it sounds crazy, but there’s a picture for the better description of what
I’m trying to say. 





I’m sure that hand is fake, because those men
were not moving at all. I actually would never think that I would be amazed by
something like this. What do you think about this?























Fortunately we were not the only ones who stared
them down for couple of minutes just to understand the structure and the trick
of it. We actually seen couple of those “weird” street performers and they
looked the same for some reason, which is more strange. The things they do just
to shock tourists! :)
