The white holy chastity upon freshly green grasslawns-The park of Torre di Pisa,Italy.

 

 

我以佛羅倫斯為落腳地往返比薩,將比薩當作一日遊處理,真正去玩的時候,感覺自己還是沒有很隨興,不然應該在比薩住個1、2晚,雖然比薩以斜塔所在的園區為觀光主景點,但是市區有著不同大城市的恬靜悠閒氛圍,比薩本地也有很多博物館可以參觀,尤其沿阿諾河騎腳踏車是很愜意的活動,但喜歡大都會熱鬧的人就不是很合適,比薩市物價比較便宜,但不是大肆採購的好地點,想買名牌還是乖乖回佛羅倫斯去,至少佛羅倫斯還有個著名的Outlet專營。
I accommodated in Florence and travelled to and fro Pisa as one day tour.However,I didn't go with the flow as I liked,just couldn't shake off the self-constraint ideology.It would be nice to stay 1 or 2 nights in Pisa.
Except from the park where Torre is at as the main tourist asset,there are great musuems in city as well.Besides,Pisa has a totally different casual living ambience from the metropolitan's like in Rome.It is excellent to ride a bike along River Ano too.
Pisa's living cost is lower than Rome's.Nonetheless it wouldn't fit to lavish people pampering themselves by indulging in purchasing spree.Florence is a better place to shop,and there's a well-known outlet site in Florence too.

到了車站可以一直往前,穿過市中心鬧區,直接走過橋過河,看到Bath of Nero遺跡,就左轉再直走,不久就可以遠遠看到歪歪的比薩斜塔在前面。
這段走路的過程,還滿享受的,而且義大利是不是經濟不好啊?!我看到很多乞討的人,這些生活上不得已的人蹲在橋旁亦或路旁還很害羞,板子都把臉遮住了,我看不懂義大利文,所以也沒有多停留,之前不知道是在羅馬還是佛羅倫斯,看到整個趴在路旁乞討的老婦,我就已經心驚膽跳了。

I went straight ahead after leaving train station,kept going through the city center,across the bridge that travessed River Ano,until I met the ruins of Bath of Nero.I ,then, turned left ,before long,I could see the slided Torre di Pisa in the far end.
The route I walked on was quite enjoyable to me.
Then I started to wonder if the economy in Italy was bad? for I sawg few beggers on the roadsides.
Some of them were quite shy.They even were holding paperboards to cover their faces when they squatted on the curbs of the streets or by the bridge.I didn't know Italian words,so I didn't stay at all for not understanding what they wrote on the boards.I felt the scenes were quite disturbing somehow,which brought back some memories that I had seen an old lady begging in Rome's street curbs too.

這天比薩市的天氣陰陰的,可不要給我下雨,不管有沒有出去玩,我們觀光客一天就有一天的錢要花,跑都跑不掉,即使已經累到很狼狽了,也得硬撐出去玩,一個月下來,我都覺得被曬得好黑。
Sky today looked gloomily overcast.I timidly hoped it'd not rain.Nevertheless,travelers need to spend every day,willingly or reluctantly.It's a mandatory fate no matter if I was tired or untidy in appearances.I would still stick to my schedule unyieldingly,just didn't want to waste a day's cost.
I found myself darker than I was in usual after a month's roaming in the outdoors. 

 

園區有高聳的城牆圍起來,所以基本上該看的都在同一場地,建物基調以白色為主,大片綠草幾乎沒人踩踏,視覺色調上很搶眼,跟平常看到的大地色系不同,由於爬上塔要排隊也要門票,比薩斜塔並沒有很寬大,同一時間上塔頂要限制人數,所以要趕快到旁邊大樓旅客中心(也是紀念品販賣部)買好票,其他建物包括園裡的博物館也是要票,那既然來了就買套票吧,買好票就到隔壁間將包包寄放,現在歐洲所有的景點幾乎大包包都是顧人怨的,如果當天出門的行程很簡單,那就儘量不要背大包包了,也比較不容易被下手搶或扒。
Basically,the park was surrounded by high walls,which are left from the remains of ancient castle walls.All interesting objects can be appreciated within the park.
The major motif is white,accompanying with green grass lawns making an outstanding eyesight treat,unlike the usual earthy color observed in other cities.
Going up the Torre needs a ticket and since the Torre is not very large or wide,it is necessary to control visitors' flow in every period of time.It means the line of waitting que would be long.I then quickly went to buy a package of ticket,which including all admissions of all buildings in the park.The ticket booth was in the souvenir shop at the right hand side of the park. 
The cloak room was in the next door.All large or big bags must stay there.If your schedule is easy,it's better not to carry a big backpack,for nowadays,in Europe,all tourist sites are guarded and a sizable bag is definitely a burden,due to terrorism check.Besides,it'd be safer from being targeted by being stolen or robbed.

比薩斜塔(Torre de Pisa)真的很歪呢,就是東西掉到地上會滾到另一邊去的那種歪,很怕爬一爬就往外面掉下去,而且大家在最上一層又喜歡擠在最傾斜的那一邊,等一下大家的重量真的讓塔倒下去就好玩了,然而塔頂風光真的不錯。
Torre de Pisa is really greatly lopsided.That kind of lopsided angle that if you drop things on the floor,they will roll to the other side right away.I was so afraid that people might accidently drop off the tower while climbing up.
I don't know why people like to stay at the lower side on the top,which made me worried that the tower could flop down because the extra visitors' weight.
However,the panoramic views were excellent at the top.

聖若望洗禮堂是最後面高挑圓頂的建物,外部有布置著非常精緻的雕像,內部可以到上層比較好環顧四周,原則上正中放的是洗禮儀式用的浴池,再來就沒什麼了,整個空間感非常高聳。
The dome of Battistero di San Giovanni is huge and high,there's no doubt about it,for you can even measure the size from its exterior.It's exterior is laid with exquisite scultures.
Visitors can go up to the 2nd level from the stairway inside.The view from the 2nd level is nice.
As for the bathing pool,which is put in the center,accompanying with a sermoning rostrum.
Since the dome is high,which making the sense of space lengthening up.

主教座堂則是主體經年都有部分在維修中,裡面如同看過的其他教堂類似,特殊在於四周掛上相關油畫,特別是主祭壇一幅幅往上有關耶穌的事跡。
The Cathedral of Pisa was under maintenance,it seemed to be that way all year round.
The interior was similar with other giant churches,sparkling,golden ray lighted,extravagant with oil canvases hung around the walls,especially,the paintings on the main altar's wall.

這裡我卻最喜歡墓場的寧靜,也真奇怪,遊客很少進入參觀,門廊後的大面積壁畫雖然斑駁,但整體視覺很寬闊舒服,中庭和後面的墓地都設計得非常美觀,一點都沒有陰鬱的感覺,卻透出高雅閒淡氣質,全部沒有墓碑,而是與地面齊平,地上一格一格劃分整齊,銘文直接刻在地上墳地,有人拜訪,則將花盆放置其上,視覺上空間的留白效果,感覺非常優雅,這是我看過的靈骨塔或墳場中,我最喜歡的設計,優雅、簡單、純潔、和空白。
Campo Santo is a place of graves,where was more to my likings.Weird,visitors here were less compared to the outside's. All morals on the walls ,after entering,were also under repairment.However,the surroundings were pacious and decorated with elegant motif.The courtyard and tombs were all well-designed,simple and graceful,not even a bit of eerie feeling emitted.There were no tombstones erected but laid flat on the ground level.
All graves were laid gridworked neatly.When people came to visit,they'd like to place the flower pots on the tombstones making me feel the effect of leaving large space in viewers' sight was aesthetically graceful.
It was the best designed cemetery I'd toured,with all my favorite elements of grace,simplicity,purity,and blank.

園區裡奉著白潔聖靈的建物,一座座如同浮在綠色的海洋上面,看著心靈甚是祥和。
園區底的城牆外有一市集可以再逛逛,很熱鬧,不過區內靠近餐廳那邊的聯外道路,要小心有人做問卷調查,那是要你捐錢的。

All white buildings,where the holy spirits were worshipped,laid upon the green lawns like floating on a vast green sea.My mind was gradually calm and peaceful,when thinking nothing but just watching.
Out of the castle wall in the end of the park,there was a market.It was full of hectic crowds.It was good to buy something as souvenirs,the price was better than you'd get in the park.However,inside the park,about being in the middle ,where there was a road linking to the park.You could not only find a few of restaurants there ,but also some people asked you to fill in the sheet of their poll investigation.Watch out those people,for they wanted your money in the name as "donation" to some cause.
