Region
The Amalfi Coast is one of the most spectacular coastal regions in the world where the azure sea meets high cliffs kisses at points the incredibly high cliffs and narrow inlets where fishing villages and incredible estates that seem architecturally impossible have been built.
City
In the Eternal City one can see many layers of history, from ancient to modern times, existing side by side. The center of the Catholic Church and the third most visited city in Europe, Rome has something for every seeker of culture and adventure. Once the center of the greatest empire on Earth, its universities, libraries, and museums are repositories of culture going back centuries. The Vatican Museums house many of the world’s great art treasures and are a favorite among art lovers worldwide. The Colosseum stands as both a great monument to the vast empire that was ancient Rome, while at the same time giving a warning to future generations about power and decadence. The city is known for its architecture, which spans centuries and offers a glimpse into the distant past as well as its influence on development through the years. Rome is one of Italy’s and the world’s great cities, a title it has held for centuries, a thought and an idea expressed in its past, and presently on display in the Eternal City.
This small town is wonderfully located over white steep cliffs and offers a fantastic view over the Bay of Naples. Sorrento lies on a Tufa terrace and is enclosed by impressive rocks of the limestone mountains. For 2000 years already visitors from all over the world have been attracted to Sorrento by breathtaking sunsets and fragrances of orange and lemon gardens.
The small fishing harbor of Marina Grande is especially beautiful in the low season, where one can sense the naturalness of Sorrento.
Island
Other
Pompeii is one of the most fascinating archeological sites in Italy. It is here where they can see an entire ancient city come to life,
Walking down the old Roman high street you can peek into the shops, read the graffiti on the walls, then wander off down the back streets to explore the homes of the inhabitants and appraise their taste in painting - they won't mind a bit if you do.
Almost everything we know for sure concerning the daily life of the ancients was learned here, and the huge mass of artefacts and art dug up over 200 years is still helping scholars to re-evaluate the Roman world. Though a fair-sized city by Roman standards, with a population of some 20,000 Pompeii was probably only the third or fourth city of Campania, and a trading and manufacturing centre of no special distinction. Founded perhaps in the 7th century BC, the city came under the Roman Sphere of influence around 200 BC.
In the fateful year of AD 79 it was still a cosmopolitan place, culturally more Greek than Roman. Vesuvius' rumblings and the tall, sinister-looking cloud that began to form above it, gave those Pompeiians with any presence of mind a chance to leave, and only about 10 per cent of the population perished.
