Italy is full of pits. Be careful. Keep your passport and money close to your body. The backpack on your back cannot hold valuable items. If you have valuable items, put them in a cross-body bag in front. You should pay attention to the paintings on the ground at the Florence Duomo. If you step on them, you will have to pay 100 euros. The Leaning Tower of Pisa specializes in stealing suitcases from the trunks of cars belonging to Chinese tourists. You must park in a guarded parking lot. Do not talk to people who chat you up easily in Rome. Once you chat up, they will tie a rope to your hand and charge you 10 euros. You should ask the staff who are responsible for the scenic spots for information. Be cautious of ordinary volunteers. You may accidentally fall into a pit.

Don't talk to black or white people who approach you, just ignore them and walk away quickly.

Yes, so nothing should be placed in the car that can be seen with the naked eye.

Valuable items should not be placed in the car. Be sure to park in a paid parking lot.

I just returned to my country, and overall it was safe and sound. I didn't encounter any thieves, and my car was also in good condition. First of all, the safety education is quite sufficient, and the journey was like fighting monsters, but in reality it wasn't that scary. Italy's famous attractions not only have police, but also armored vehicles and armed soldiers, making it difficult to imagine how thieves and scammers would operate. Secondly, don't be tempted to park on the roadside. I always use paid parking lots, and there are people watching over them in Pisa. In addition, Italy may have an average economic situation, which is reflected not only in prices, but also in the scarcity of black people. Even in the capital Rome, there are slightly more black people, but even they look down on Italy. Finally, let's talk about ztl. Italy's historic districts are relatively small and essentially tourist attractions, so parking outside the ztl will not cause much inconvenience ? Italy Q&A

For buses that don't stop or announce the stations, how do you ensure you don't get off at the wrong stop? It seems that in Italy, buses don't announce the stations and only stop when someone needs to get on or off, and you have to press a red button to signal that you want to get off... The method of counting the stations and listening for announcements doesn't work, so do you rely on the driver to call out the stops? But what if you don't speak Italian and the bus is crowded? Looking out for landmarks? You need to have landmarks to look at, and it's hard to see them when it's dark or when the bus is crowded... So the only thing I can think of is to look at the GPS location on the map... Do you have any clever tricks for this ? Italy Q&A

Hello everyone, could you please tell me if you have rented a GPS when you went to the Dolomites and Amalfi? I find it hard to search for cable car stations, lakes, hiking starting points. Or should I download Google offline maps as soon as possible? I am now waiting for a connecting flight at an airport in Russia, and when I adjust the GPS, I find that many places cannot be searched. I'm also afraid that there will be no signal in the mountains and I can't use Google online maps ? Italy Q&A
