Photo of ItalyAn invitation to travel

“The drawback of Italy is that it is too beautiful. Why paint when one has so much pleasure in looking?” (Auguste Renoir)

Italy is an invitation to travel, so many are its riches to seduce. Its cities, its architecture and its vestiges bear witness to a history full of turmoil for 2500 years. This is well illustrated by the three great tourist hubs that are Rome, center of the vast Roman empire of antiquity; Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance; Venice, the city on the water, a Mediterranean republic between east and west …

Each region has its own personality, often its own dialect, from the hills of Tuscany to the Alpine foothills, to Sicily of the Greeks, to the lands of Puglia, to the wild Abruzzo …
As if that were not enough to love Italy, its landscapes are very diverse. It has many coasts, lakes and mountains. In addition its climate is generous, its culture is vast, its inhabitants express the joy of living, and its cuisine itself would be a sufficient reason to visit it.
