This is part 9 of the puzzle series. Part 1 is here.
Dear Puzzling,
Today I'm visiting a small town to marvel at some fantastic examples of Renaissance architecture. Sadly, this is also the last destination of my trip this time. I will send you one more crossword later where you can put to use the answers you have gathered up from these puzzles.
In this crossword, the wordplay of 24 clues produces one extra letter which is not used in the answer of the clue. The extra letters, in clue order, spell out an instruction on how to extract the final answer, which is ten letters long.
Wish you were here!
Love, Gladys.
