Virtually unrivalled in it's classical heritage, Italy elicits thoughts of romance, fine food, art, wine -- it has an instantly recognizable identity. However, Italy is actually made up of 21 distinct regions, each with it's own culture and dialect. It is this very factor that makes Italy so fascinating for travellers. It has been said that to travel Italy is to travel a whole world.
Rome is obviously the capital and spiritual heart of Italy. From the Colosseum to the Piazza Navona, it shouts romance and excitement. Tuscany is the artistic inspiration, a blend of rolling landscapes and medieval towns dominated by Florence with it's Duomo and galleries. Venice is essentially a vast lagoon with 117 islands of architecture -- pass via gondola under the Bridge of Sighs, or study the form of St. Mark’s Basilica, the San Giorgio Maggiore, and Santa Maria della Salute churches. Milan, the grand meeting place of the chic, is a city where opera lovers flock to one of the oldest and most famous opera houses in the world, the Teatro alla Scala.
