說實在話，以前從來也沒想過我真的會住到國外，而且還到了義大利北部這個絕對不屬於都會城市的地方。搬過來四年多，也漸漸適應了此處悠閒緩慢的生活。聽過這個城市的朋友並不多，每每談起，總是要花點時間解釋，幾年下來也習慣了。偶然之間看到城市筆記的串聯活動，稍作思考以後竟然發現，一些自己已經習以為常的地點，竟然還叫不出名字來…姑且就讓我跟隨著前人的腳步，做起屬於我的城市筆記，更清楚地認識我目前的居住地 – 維琴察，帕拉底歐之城。
Honestly speaking, I'd never thought that I'd move abroad and come to this non-metropolitan city in the north Italy. Four years have passed since I arrived. Gradually I am adapting the relaxed and slow pace here. Not too many friends heard of this city before. Every time I was asked where I am living, I always have to spend some time explaining. By accident I saw this blogger activity "10-places-of-my-city". Thinking carefully, I didn't even know some of the places that I go very often. So I've decided to follow the trend and take my own note, to get to know even more clearly of where I am living - Vicenza, the city of Palladio.
[L’ANGOLO DEL GELATO]
位於Creazzo地區，有著熱情的老闆娘和讓我戀戀不忘的冰淇淋。
Situated in the Creazzo area. This is a ice cream shop with a very enthusiastic hostess and my favorite ice cream in the whole Italy.
[AL MOLIN VECIO]
是我和老公結婚宴客的餐廳，嗜吃美食的我們，隔段時間總會找點藉口去打打牙祭。
The place I and my husband had our wedding banquet. Food is really good. Once in a while we would find some excuses to go and feast.
[TEATRO OLIMPICO]
是維琴察市區內最著名的古蹟之一，只要友人來訪，我必然會來個到此一遊，每每仍然被劇場內舞台佈景之美心動不已。
One of the most famous heritage site in Vicenza city center. It is a must go place for visitors and I go there whenever friends come for a visit. Whenever I go, I am still amazed by the beautiful sight on the stage.
[PIAZZA DI MONTE BERICO]
是眺望維琴察景色的最佳地點，廣場不但是情人約會的浪漫去處，旁邊更有著曾經聖蹟顯靈的美麗教堂。
The best place to have a panorammic view of Vicenza. The quare itself is a popular/romantic places for lovers. Besides the square stands the beautiful sanctuary, Chiesa di S. Maria, the most famous and visited sanctuary in the Veneto area.
[CORSO PALLADIO]
維琴察市區的主要街道，沿路商店林立，血拼的好去處。
The main street in the Vicenza city center. Major shopping area.
[LIBRERIA GALLA]
維琴察市區最大的書店，即使仍以義文為主，在裡面享受被書擁抱的感覺也挺不錯的！
The biggest bookshop in Viccenza. Though most of the books are in Italian, I still enjoy the feeling to be surrounded by books.
[PIAZZA DEI SIGNORI]
市中心最大的廣場，市集的主要地點，有著帕拉底歐設計建造的Basilica Palladiana，這個有著淺綠色船型屋頂的建築物，是維琴察的地標。
The main square of Viccenza and major area for market. Beside the square there's the famous Basilica Palladiana that was designed and constructed by Palladio. This building with boat shaped roof in pale green color is the landmark of Vicenza.
[GALLARIA D’ARTE VALMORE]
這個藝廊我去過很多次，因為是朋友媽媽藝品店所附設的展示空間。藝廊主人自己是收藏家，對當代藝術非常熱衷，常常邀請或策劃展出小有知名度的藝術作品，而我和老公則因朋友之幸，常常是開展酒會的座上嘉賓。只是說也好笑，一個這麼熟悉的地方，我一直到寫這篇文章的當下，才知道這個藝廊到底叫什麼名字！
I've been to this art gallery quite a few times because it is the exhibition area of an arts shop that is belonged to a friend's mother. The ownder of the shop is also a collectionist and is very keen on contemporary art. Every couple months there's a new temporary exhibition. Because of our friend, my husband and I am always invited for the opening. The funny thing is, though I am familiar with the place, I only got to know its name at the very day when I wrote this article.
[GASTRONOMIA PUGLIESE]
約莫兩年多前偶然發現的特色食品小店，每週四都有來自靴子後跟普利亞地區的新鮮食材，莫札雷拉乳酪尤其是我的最愛。
A food shop that we discovered about two years ago. Every Thursday there's fresh stuff from Puglia area in the south Italy. The mozzarella cheese is my favorate.
[LA TRIESTINA]
市中心大大小小的咖啡館中，最常去的就是它。沒有新咖啡館的豪華裝潢，以味道取勝。冬日時節，我尤其喜歡來杯散發著肉桂香的熱巧克力，喝下去，整個身子暖呼呼的，心情也好了起來…
Among all the coffee shop in the city center, this is my favorate. There's no luxurious decoration and the main "winning point" is its flavor. In winter time, I especially like to have a cup of hot chocolate with cinnamon that help to warm up my body and bring up my mood...
