Hello everyone! This is and I'll present today's edition of Travel Digest. In our featured posts, we have the city of Shanghai, China, the city of Venice, Italy, and an ancestral house in Cebu City, Philippines. Enjoy and keep on pinning your travel posts to the map!
My original plan was to fly from Beijing to Shanghai, but I decided to test the well-known express trains which are very popular in China and are known under the name China Railway High-Speed. From Beijing to Shanghai it's about 1200 km and the journey by train took just 4.5 hours which of course was also a unique experience and it was in any case also the fastest train with which I have driven so far and it was also similarly comfortable as in the plane and anyone who should be in China, should definitely test these fast trains and I think there are similar programs in other countries like Japan or South Korea, but it can be said that Asia is well developed in this respect. When I arrived in Shanghai, I first had to get used to the high humidity that prevails there, but I personally did not have such strong problems, but I could imagine that there are people who have them and they should best choose travel times in which the climate is different and in short it can be said that this is especially high in summer while in cooler months it#s much more pleasant.

The moment we arrived, Venice welcomed us with its unique rhythm that I describe as beautiful, magical and romantic. That time we visited, it was a picked season and we were expecting more tourists to come. But it was all ok, still the stunning view of Venice has more to offer. The city Venice is effortlessly captivates its visitors. No surprise that the city steals enchanting charm and where the romance and magic is in the air.

From the outside, it’s not flashy or anything. kinda small-ish, wooden walls, red-tiled roof, and capiz shell windows that reflect the sun in this soft glowy kinda way. super aesthetic ngl 🪟🌞 I was expecting it to be interesting, but I wasn’t ready for what I’d feel walking inside…
