Information
about Italy and its regions and
atractions.The Amalfi
Coast.
Nowhere do colours shine with such
different, clear tones as on the Amalfi
Coast in Italy, which has always attracted
visitors of the greatest prestige. Set
like an incomparable gem in a precious
diadem, the villages scattered along the
coast enchants even the most astute
visitor. The Cinque
Terre
in Liguria Italy! Five miles of rocky
coast in eastern Liguria, two promontories
lie at each extremity, thousands of
kilometres of dry walling, cultivated into
vineyards, five southerly villages castled
up on spurs of stone or disposed in
clusters of very small inlets. These are
the co-ordinates of the Cinque Terre (Five
lands).
Looking
for accommodation in
Tuscany
Florence, capital of the region of Tuscany
Italy, spreads on the banks of the Arno,
between the Adriatic and the Tyrrhenian
seas, almost in the middle of the Italian
peninsula. It is a city which bustles with
industry and craft, commerce and culture,
art and science. Being on the main
national railway lines, it is easily
accessible from most important places both
in Italy and abroad. Italy is a land
celebrated for the arts, and not the least
among the arts that have attained their
highest expression in Italy is the art of
hospitality. The Italian welcome is as
warm and traditional as a glass of fine
wine. Italy is one of the most popular
vacation countries in Europe, all seasons
being good for a visit. In summer, Italy
is an international playground, with
visitors from all continents mingling with
vacationing Italians at the famous
resorts.
Lake
Garda
is one of the favourite destinations for
many people from all over the world, who
take great pleasure in visiting the most
beautiful lake in Europe. Already 200
years ago, in 1786, when J.W. v. Goethe
arrived at Lake Garda he wished for his
friends to be there too, to share the
wonderful views of the Lake with him.
Today, Lake Garda has a length of 51,6km
and stretches 4km across in the north and
17km in the south.
Como
is a nice town with a beautifully
maintained historical centre and a scenic
location at the southernmost point of Lake
Como. The impressive Duomo (cathedral) was
developed and added to over a period of
several hundred years ( so you can admire
Gothic and Renaissance features including
fine tapestries and paintings.
Archeological sites in the
Garda
hinterland and in the west of the Province
of Verona: they have uncovered evidence
dating back to prehistoric times, to the
Bronze and Iron Age, as well as some Roman
settlements and Romanic Art.
Rome,
capital of Italy and Latium, the city lies
20 m. above sea level on the banks of the
Tiber, in the Campagna di Roma. This is
the most highly populated and largest city
in Italy, an historical and cultural
centre of extraordinary importance, the
capital of the Roman Catholic
Church.
Small enough to be classified as an island
but big enough to be a universe unto
itself, Sardenia
lies about 120 miles west of the Italian
peninsula. Its coastline is probably
Europe's most spectacular. Its waters teem
with fish and shellfish. Its broad valleys
turn into golden oceans of wheat in
summer. Its rugged mountains, pocked with
caves, are home to large flocks of sheep
that feed on pungent wild herbs and
produce a cheese your palate will never
forget. Sicily
is the largest island (25,426 sq. km.) in
the Mediterranean; it is also the most
important economically and has the richest
heritage of history and art. Its
geographical particularity lies in its
compact but varied orographical structure,
the uniformity of its rivers, the
typically Mediterranean climate and the
insularity which has helped Sicily to
experience homogeneous historical
development with originality of custom,
art and culture.
