Northern Italy is rich, both economically and culturally. It is characterized by its industrial past and its legendary businesses, but also by its gastronomy. This has not prevented the region from retaining its authenticity, its art of living imbued with simplicity and sharing, as well as an idyllic environment that is sometimes still wild. It is suitable for all types of travelers (nature, mountains, cities, idleness).

Each region has its characteristics. The region of the Italian lakes has always attracted and seduced visitors, from the romanticists of the 19th century to international stars, bewitched by these pearls with clear waters nestled in beautiful pre-Alpine landscapes. Piedmont travels between its Alpine reliefs and its capital, Turin, the industrial heart of Italy. Liguria, the Italian Riviera, oscillates between sea and mountains. Lombardy, its cities of art, its small charming villages and its medieval basilicas. The Veneto, characterized by its cultural and artistic wealth, its religious heritage, is also one of the cradles of art history. Emilia-Romagna is home to a city steeped in history: Bologna.

Whether for the coastal landscapes, the ancient and medieval architectural heritage, or the alleys and their romantic atmosphere, there will always be something to delight his eyes.

In Tuscany, the cypress groves sparingly arranged on the hills and the interfluves. The great buildings of Chianti plunged into a tide of holm oaks, with the song of the cicadas and the heavens of the sun. The dusty dirt roads bordered by dry stone walls and olive trees. Few places in the world can boast such a dense concentration of masterpieces.
Umbria well deserves its designation of “green lung” of Italy. It is certainly more secret and authentic than its Tuscan neighbor.

Southern Italy offers visitors rich regions with diverse landscapes. Campania has many assets, with Naples first. The dilapidation of certain dwellings contrasts with the opulence of the Baroque decor. Lovers of old stones will be conquered by almost intact ancient cities like Pompeii and Herculaneum. The Bay of Naples with its famous islands: Capri, Ischia or Procida. Finally, the Amalfi Coast displays one of the most sumptuous landscapes of Italy.

The discovery of Puglia remains that of a less monumental Italy but just as interesting with Lecce the baroque and the hilltop villages. Agricultural land where stone constructions blend into the landscape, like the conical roofs of the trulliscattered in pastures and these old farms surrounded by olive groves.
As for the discreet Basilicata, it still has a lot to reveal. What about Matera and its maritime coasts, still preserved?

Calabria remained peaceful. The sea is a paradise blue, that the mountains reserve beautiful walks and that its capital Reggio Calabria conceals an impressive archaeological museum.
