Vacation in Italy – Cremona

[ckii96]

Cremona is home to the violin-crafting masters, Nicolo Amati, Antonio Stradivari and Giuseppe Guarnari. The violin-making activity is still the major attraction of the town until today. A few of the priceless antique violins are on display at the museums but unfortunately photography is not allowed in these museums.

The Cathedral in Siena was under restoration when I was there, so I couln't shoot the front facade of it. Other than that, I enjoyed every bit of my time in Siena. It's indeed a lovely place to indulge yourself with lotsa pleasure for a day.
