CITIES

Italy has some of the most romantic and historic cities the world over, a real joy to the eyes.

Due to Italy's history of different city-states, republics, duchies and grand-duchies, many of the country's cities were capital cities of their own states and even commanded great empires.

Venice . the Serenissima Repubblica di San Marco, was capital of its empire. Not to mention Rome . capital of the greatest empire of antiquity, on which, along with Greek culture, the Western civilisation was founded. Florence . the capital of the state of Tuscany.

Other Italian great cities are Milan . Italy's industrial, financial and commercial capital but also a city with a wealth of art and stunning architecture, Naples in the South, and Turin, Genoa and Bologna in the North.

SEASIDE

Italy is a very long peninsula, with a lengthy coastline, full of bays, gulfs, inlets and myriad islands, big and small.

Not only the famous seaside resorts of the Bay of Naples or the Italian Riviera are worth seeing, though. What about being stunned by the majestic Apuane Alps near the Viareggio beach . with their marble used by Michelangelo, who also worked in the quarries? Or living in a trullo in Alberobello . Original experiences you can only have in this magic country.
