Italian restaurant
👍👍 Please come here and get a sandwich for breakfast or lunch! It was the best one we have had in all of Italy. Super fresh ingredients and friendly owner. I took the sandwich to go and was stopped multiple times by people asking where I got it because it’s so HUGE and looks amazing.

Belvedere di Piazza Giovanni Pascoli
Observation deck
👍 The place gives its best in the SUNSET, when lights are on and one starts seeing a never ending Nativity Scene. Simply TO CONTEMPLATE. That's all. It's worth spending a while to imagine... and empathize with big feelings of ancient sharing such as only very aged people have really experienced.
