Florence, Italy
Florence has to be one my favorite cities in Italy. After all, it’s home to some incredible cultural treasures, like the statue of David, The Duomo Basilica, and the Ponte Vecchio bridge.

Naples, Italy
Naples Italy, the foster kid of All the Italian cities. Graffiti, pick pocketers, foreign hustlers, knock off sunglasses, bags and the road looks like a big ash tray of cigarette butts.
