3 Days in Italy
 

If you only had three days in Italy,
where would you stay and why?

Rome - because there is so much there.

Is this a REAL question or just a question for fun?

Definitely Rome, because I love the city so much, although I would probably be temped to say Venice because I have yet to visit.

REAL QUESTION!!
I am celebrating my 40th next May
and would like to plan a little
getaway without the little ones.
Considering either Paris or Italy.

Paris

OK...

3 days...

Venice or Paris

if you have to go to Italy, I'd vote for Venice...

but I'm a francophile and Italy is down on my list as someday, not a must

Most romantic city in Italy?
How does it compare to Paris?

You have to tell us your primary interests....art? religion? architecture? history? shopping? wandering romantic streets? food? wine? scenery?

Ive never been to Venice, so maybe I cant comment here. But I found Paris and Rome to be incredibly romantic (maybe Paris more so by a smidge)

If you're looking for romance, Paris, followed by Venice. I found Rome fascinating, but not the least bit romantic.

I thought Rome was romantic in the evening. We walked in the city at night...the monuments lit up. It was beautiful. It seems to be a more stressed city - if that makes sense. I thought I might lose my husband when crossing the street - to a crazed driver!
If you are looking for romance though - my vote would be paris.

Echoing missypie...

In France, Paris

In Italy, Venice

most romantic - Venice gets my vote. i have no idea how you'd compare it to Paris (though I've been to both). there could hardly be two more different places.

Hi YGG,

Paris.

You can enjoy Paris on your own.

You should bring someone to Venice.

ira- though I rarely disagree with your wise advice(!) I have been to Venice twice, once was a solo trip. because of its size and ease of getting around, it is a *perfect* destination for someone traveling alone. i don't know why you say you should 'bring someone'. kindly, Suze

I am not traveling along.
I am bringing my husband, just
not our children.
How about Tuscany or Lake Como?
Our primary interests will be
wandering, taking in beautiful
sights, drinking and eating.

Hi YG,

>I am bringing my husband,...<

Paris, or Venice.

If you haven't been to Paris, you should go. You will be very disappointed if you die and go to heaven without having been to Paris.

Ira - if it had to be Paris or Rome, which gets your vote?
