Italy is one of the most popular places in Europe and for good reason. Together with the country’s beautiful artwork, unique castles and palaces, crumbling ruins, and so, it also offers beautiful but less crowded coastal areas where you can relax all day long.
Here is our list of the best things you can do while in Italy:
The Valley of the Temples
If you are going to visit Sicily, do not miss the opportunity to visit this huge archeological complex with the most intact Doric temples made during the 5th century.
A great thing about visiting the valley of temples is that it is overlooking the town below so you can enjoy the historical site while also enjoying the view of the city.
Mount Vesuvius
Mount Vesuvius is one of the most famous mountains in the world, not just because of the eruption it did in the town of Pompeii. These days, Vesuvius is famous for climbers that like to trek to the crater of the mountain. The views from the top are breathtaking and are worth most travellers’ time.
Cinque Terre
This UNESCO World Heritage Site is also a national park. Cinque Terre is located between La Spezia and Levanto where you will find olive groves, traditional eateries, and sea views.
Uffizi Gallery
When in Florence you will find the most famous gallery in the world which is the Uffizi Gallery. This museum has a lot of good works of Italian greats like Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo and Caravaggio.
