There are many places to travel in Paris,
Paris

Paris was a very important city during the
renaissance period, it was the cultural hearth of
France. The revolution taught the rest of the world
that fair government is always necessary-and the
nobles can’t have the bigger say all of the time. It
also is home to some of the most famous
renaissance paintings of all times such as the “Mona
Lisa” and art depicting the storming of the Bastille,
one of the most important days in french history.

This is the icon that comes to most people’s heads
when thinking about Paris, or just France in general.
It is an iron built structure that is located in Paris, near
the middle of all the crowdedness of the inner city. It
is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the
world, and France itself. Be sure to pack a camera
and a water bottle or two if you are deciding to climb
this magnificently steep “tower de france.”

The location of the Bastille is a must see if you are truly
interested in the history of such a marvelous place. There are
no actual pictures of the bastille due to the fact that it was
where the ‘palace de bastille’ now is; a palace that represents
the magnificent history of the revolution and how it came to
be, starting with the bastille itself. A day is celebrated
nationally called “bastille day” to remember the events that
occurred on July 14th. Pay your respects to French culture in
general and eat some croissants in a shoppe next door, don’t
forget to bring your sneakers, though, because it is a nice
area that requires lots of travel by foot.

Located in Paris, this is the home of many famous
artworks such as the “Mona Lisa”, and is also home to
the famous “Louvre Pyramid” that stands tall outside the
doors of the museum and has been seen frequently in
movies. Cameras aren’t allowed in some areas of the
museum, but outside is a lovely place to take a picture or
two of the wonderful paved atmosphere and french
architecture. Pack water and warm clothing if it’s winter
time, outside is a nice place to wander.

London was one of the most important cities around during the age
of rebirth. The plague, or “Black Death”, swept through London and
caused mass death, but also may have sparked interest in cures and
science. It was also a town home to many famous play-writes such as
William Shakespeare, who made eminent impact on our society today.
Through new forms of writing he and other renaissance writers
changed the world of theatre and script that we know today.
!
The renaissance for England, though, is not subject to only linguistic
talent. There are also a number of rulers who impacted the future that
emerged during rebirth, such as Henry the VIII (no, not the wives).
Henry ruled with a passion, and changed common laws and shaped
England’s monarchy towards the way it is presently.

This icon is located in London and stands a
massive length similar to our time square
mega signs, but reflects the time to english
people and their many tourists from around
the world. If you are planning on walking
around the city, bring money for food and
bring water and sturdy shoes, because it is a
long walking trip. If you are not, a bus or taxi
can be called back to the hotel.
Big Ben

The Tower of London was a prison and holding place
for some of the most famous royal imprisonments
and executions to ever exist. One of the most known
executions and holdings in the cobble lined tower is
that of Anne Boleyn, one of Henry VIII’s many
“unsuitable” wives. If you are deciding on a tour,
bring some sneakers or walking shoes because there
is a lot of walking through the grounds and museum
areas.

A gigantic ferris wheel is located in the heart of the city.
It does not have strong connections to the time of
rebirth or before it’s creation in 1998. Purchase a ticket
for the London Eye online before heading to the actual
wheel because it is a bit cheaper and will save you lots
of time waiting in line (especially if there is lots of
english rain)

The city of Amsterdam, Netherlands was salient during
the renaissance. The renaissance, alike to the rebirth of
Italy and England effected Amsterdam in a very
beneficial way. The segment of rebirth through which
Amsterdam’s bloom is noticed most frequently is
architecture. It can be seen throughout the entire city. If
you are looking for a real way to appreciate Amsterdam
architecture, visit the Canals and checkout the homes
and buildings nearest to them.

Canal Cruises
The famous “Amsterdam Canals” are something that
you shouldn’t miss walking or boating along during your
trip. This is a very scenic area of the inner city, so you
should definitely bring a camera and walking shoes if you
want to walk the side of the canals.

“The Anne Frank House”
The house that Anne Frank hid in during WWII is located
in Amsterdam. It is the place that Anne started writing
her diary (in the attic), and where her family stayed by her
side for a long while until they where discovered. It can
be visited and resides along the canal walkway.

This museum is a sight to see, partially for the intricate
landscaping around the grounds. Inside the museum,
there are various rooms that had belonged originally to
the Van-Loon family, the family that had co-ownership of
the Dutch East India Company, a company that
colonized Asia as England colonized the U.S

Rome was a very momentous capitol of Italia during the
renaissance. I think that art is the most detailed
component focused upon during this time in Italy, but
the other components such as architecture and
inventions also play key roles in such a great time for
Italians.

The Colosseum
This building is one of the most fascinating still-
standing ancient structures in Europe. Gladiator Battles
took place in it, and even some of the most famous
Italian rulers had set foot inside.

This is a plaza that can be seen in many pictures of the
city. It is located in a popular “roundabout” close to the
Colosseum.

Saint Peter’s Basilica is one of the most amazing
components of Italian architecture and a place of
worship for those practicing Roman-Catholocism, or
the regular tourist coming to take photos and light a
candle.

Venice was the birth place of brilliant reborn minds and
served as a center for trade due to how great of a coastal
spot it is in. As most cities that had trade advantages,
Venice served as one of the capitol-esque italian cities
alongside Rome and Florence.

Gondola Rides on The Grand Canal…need I say more?
Whilst an italian man sings to you, take a lovely boat
ride through the most famous Italian waterway and
pass elements of lovely italian architecture until
departing and getting gelato at a street cart nearby.

Saint Mark’s Basilica sits on a famous photographic
plaza, and is the artistically imposed cousin of Saint
Peter’s Basilica of Rome. There are multiple domes and
paintings are located outside of the basilica on its outer
walls. It may be crowded with tourists, but even outside
is a nice place to stay.

Saint Mark’s Square is very tourist populated, but
definitely worth checking out during your trip. There are
two well-known statues standing in front of the Plaza and
shops line the area, so there will be no boredom here.
