Italy travel tips
1. There are manual, online and self-service machines for buying tickets at Italian travel stations! Manual can be cash, kiosk can be card! The internet tends to have payment failure problems for domestic users, so manual and self-service machines are recommended for purchases. Especially note that before taking the train, you have to punch the date of your ticket on the machine, otherwise you will be checked and fined! The following punching devices are available
There is no information on the number of trains and the time of day, you can get on any train at any time of day, this is a bit confusing for people in general, especially first time buyers, there is a way to check the corresponding train and the station signal on the self-service machine! Don’t take the wrong direction! The times on the kiosks are only for reference, trains are often late! So don’t get off a train that doesn’t announce the station, ask questions, or use Google Maps to locate it!
Here we must complain about the domestic mobile wireless network, often no signal, not to mention the key Google Maps, Uber all can not be used, we strongly recommend that you buy a local card!
2. In the car there are often people who send similar small notes, such as I can not read, do not even touch, because these people still want to retrieve, feel like the domestic deaf begging similar
3. when the train arrives, some carriages will automatically open the door, some cars have a red handle, you need to manually lift the door to open, if you do not open in time, you will pass the station!
4. The train is divided into different classes of carriages, just like in China. If you are caught sitting in the wrong car, you will be fined.
So look at the led screens for platform and train information, and use the train number to distinguish the easiest way.

5. Even 4-star hotels do not have a kettle, it is recommended to bring a power converter and kettle, otherwise you can only use the same local purchase as me a
6. in the scenic area, often people with tickets, see Asian people, talk about free to, do not take care of, there is no free lunch! The back is a pit after another pit!
7.7-8% of Italians can’t or won’t speak English, because like the French they think their stuff is the best and their language is the best, so many places are signposted in Italian only, no other languages! This time we have to rely on Google Maps to locate the place, once again, I’d like to spit out the 囯 mobile 1 network ……
Safety first! Don’t show your money!
