how much effort it takes to reach the Ghost Sculpture! ππ§
Before coming here, I saw so many posts: Mentioning there's a castle near the Ghost Sculpture π° Mentioning it costs an extra 7 euros πΆ Mentioning the legends and stories behind the ghost π» But no one mentioned! That you have to hike for over an hour to get to this place! πΆββοΈπ And I mean hike, as in climbing up a mountain on a gravelly path, not a leisurely stroll where you just arrive by chance. After climbing up, you still have to climb down, continuing your journey on the gravelly road. Meanwhile, the so-called "ancient castle" is just a tower left now (see P4-5) ποΈπΌ Not the grand castle estate you might have imagined to explore. Fortunately, the views you see are still beautiful and majestic, which somewhat makes up for the disappointment of the "photoshopped" expectations π’π β’ Tips: If your time is limited, you might not want to come here just for a photo. If you do decide to go, wear comfortable shoes and light clothing. Location: Vezio Castle in the town of Varenna πποΈ #LakeComo #Varenna #ItalyTravel #GhostSculpture π»πΊοΈ
