For three millennia Rome has played an essential role in
civilization, religion, art, architecture, and gastronomy. Known
as the “Eternal City”, Rome is home to some of the most remarkable
sites in the world, like the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, and the
Vatican, to name just a few. With its mixture of ancient ruins and
contemporary living, Rome charms and excites all of her visitors.
Florence, the
“Cradle of the Renaissance”, is known for its spectacular
artwork, architecture, and literature. During the late Middle
Ages Florence was the center of European culture, birthplace of
Dante, Donatello, Da Vinci, and Michelangelo. Today you can
still see the stunning Duomo with its dominating dome, the
Academy of Fine Arts including Michelangelo’s David, and the
Baptistery featuring Ghilberti’s famous bronze door. With one
foot firmly planted in the past and the other in the present,
Florence is a truly remarkable city.
The city of
Venice is built on hundreds of islands, with a hundred more
canals separating each island. It is an enchanting city and was
a great maritime power during the Middle Ages. You can still see
the great monuments of the city: the Basilica of St. Mark, the
Dodges Palace and the Bridge of Sighs among others. Or you can
just relax as you take a gondola ride through the city’s
waterways.
Milan is
Italy’s business, financial and fashion capital. With a strong
cultural scene and a thriving nightlife, it is a very urban
city. But despite Milan’s modernism, one can still visit the
past at the Duomo, the last great Gothic cathedral in Italy or
the Santa Maria delle Grazie, home of da Vinci’s famous “Last
Supper”. Milan is where the past meets the present and where
countless visitors meet the adventure of Italy.
Verona lays
claim to classical & medieval monuments, a picturesque town
center where bright geraniums bloom in window boxes, and a
romantic reputation, thanks to its immortalization as the
setting of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. It is one of Italy's
most alluring cities.
