Rome

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.

 

Naples

Situated on the Gulf of Naples close to Mount Vesuvius, Naples enjoys one of the most attractive scenic settings in the Mediterranean. Naples is a pretty big city (the third largest in Italy) which has a population of 1,200,000 people. Tourists can visit medieval buildings and view Renaissance architecture.
