Winter 2011 - Pisa, Italy

Salam

18th December 2011

Departed from Milano Centrale to Pisa Centrale (approximately 4 hours of journey)
From Milano Centrale, we took the RED-LAM (LAM ROSSA) city bus to Leaning Tower of Pisa which costs EUR 1, bought from tobacco/newspaper store.







Since we are budget travellers, we didn't enter the tower which costs EUR 15.





And we had an Italian dinner too!


Spaghetti - EUR 7  

12-inch Margherita Pizza with Mushroom EUR 5.50

Tips

Buy the bus ticket before you ride the bus (buy at tobacco stores) as buying the tickets from the driver will costs extra cents.

When buying souvenirs, make sure you walk along the stalls and survey the prices first, the cheapest they can give you for key-chains are 5 for EUR 5, and magnets roughly around EUR 1.50 - 2.50. Usually Bangladeshi sellers will give you cheaper prices. No harm on haggling :)

The best and most original pizza are from Naples and they are called Napoli Pizza. Unfortunately the restaurant that sells that pizza in Pisa is already closed :(

Pisa is nice and is a must in Italy!

wassalam~
