我做过的一件不可思议的事情

To pinpoint just one or two things that left you awestruck is an monumental task:

In the 70's the Red Brigade was very active, the Italian Gov.'t made a bold decision to place its most valuable artwork in one location, in place they produce replicas of the many painting, sculpture and other artwork were moved to Florence, Italy. The security is very tight, and in this building (cannot recall the exact name of the building) - saw the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci's, and walking the many hall there were so many, many other beautiful art works. Even with threat of violence, it was a great trip.
