My favorite places in Italy

Hi everybody!

I have seen some places around the world but I can say that I traveled much more in my home country and this is a list, in my opinion, of the best places I have seen in Italy.



1. Venice and Piazza San Marco

When I was young I have been in Venice about four or five  times and every time it was a real surprise. Venice is a city that gives always wonderful feelings and let you incredible memories. In particular I remember of Venice the San Marco square where there is also the cathedral, Ponte di Rialto, Burano and Murano: two famous island near Venice, the first one is famous for the typical houses and the second for the art of working glass.



2. Camogli














Camogli is a popular beach town in Liguria and has, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful beaches in Italy. I think it's a very beautiful experience also walk around the city and visit pastry shop, trying the typical Camogli sweets: the Camogliesi.



3. Altare della patria














Also called Vittoriano, is a National Monument in honor of Vittorio Emanuele II located in Rome, on the Capitol. I like it because it's in the center of Rome and so It's nice to go there with friend and it is also near other monument like the Colosseum or the Circus Maximus.



4. Frasassi caves



These extraordinary caves, located in Marche are due to the stratification of the limestone contained in water droplets. According to me, these caves have a great atmosphere and would let any visitor astonished.



5. Ponte di Legno

This beautiful small town in northern Italy struck me by its simplicity and bright colors f its houses. During summer walking in this village is very relaxing while during winter it is a main point to reach ski slopes.



6. Florence

There are so many reasons to visit Florence, first of all, it is a city of art and consequently is full of museums, monuments and churches, especially the amazing cathedral. Then, I personally love the Florentines foods like the famous "bistecca alla Fiorentina".

7. Ponza

Ponza is an island west of Naples and I am very attached to this place because I've been there many times, even very young, and I can say that it is one of the most beautiful seaside town in Italy. The island also has a very famous beach: "Chiaia di Luna". A nice experience is also to go by boat to the nearby island of Palmarola, a nature reserve with wonderful scenery.

8. Tremosine

I have been very impressed by Tremosine, because this is situated on a cliff 350 meters high from Lake Garda. There are many hotels with terrace from where you can see a unique view of the lake and also the nature outside the city is worthy of note.



9. Castel Sant'Angelo


This is without a doubt my favorite monument in Rome. The reasons are many, is surrounded by trees, in the evening there is a special atmosphere and finally the incomparable view from the top of the castle.



10. Vioz

Finally I put in this list a place that it is hardly compare to other not only in Italy, but in all over the world. This refuge is located at the top of Mount Vioz, 3500 meters high, and offers a view of all the nearby mountains, and if there are no clouds, also  of the nearby villages. Next to Vioz there is Punta Linke, one of the focal points of World War I and is considered currently the highest museum in Europe the  with its 3600 meters.

I would like to conclude saying that my favorite thing of Italy, and that I hope I have transmitted it to you, it is its variety of landscapes, people and traditions. To understand Italy it is not enough to see only a city, but you should visit each town in each region. Obviously also see it for a few days is a fantastic experience that I wish you can try.
