Visiting Rasiglia can be a short, pleasant stop on the way to Tuscany. Tuscany is great for a weekend, but Umbria is also a beautiful region. That’s why, along the way, we stopped for a few hours in the town of Rasiglia in Umbria. This small village, with just 60 houses and 40 inhabitants, is nicknamed Little Venice, which I
Water festival A Chiena is a party that transforms a rather sleepy small town in Campania into a vibrant and lively one. Campagna – that’s what we’re talking about here, or rather its old town, reminds me a lot of the Sanita district in Naples: peeling paint from the pretty buildings, narrow cobblestone streets,
Lazio is an incredibly popular region of Italy. The capital is, of course, the main attraction, attracting millions of tourists from around the world, but it’s not worth focusing solely on this city. What to see near Rome? There’s quite a bit to see: stunning landscapes, sea, food, history, culture – everything the average tourist can expect on holidays. Lazio
Benevento has a reputation for being very elegant and a very different city from the others in Campania.
I’m not really sure what does it means ‘ an elegant town’, therefore I’m not sure whether Benevento is elegant, but in my opinion is very Campanian. Actually it’s very Neapolitan, I felt as if I was in Naples’ suburbs, especially
For the next day we again planned rather easy hikes in Campania that combined water, shade and greenery, i.e. Grotte del Bussento in Morigerati and Capelli di Venere waterfalls in Cilento.
Hiking in Campania is certainly not the first thing that comes to mind when hearing the name of this region. Campania is rather associated with the sea, Naples, or Costiera Amalfitana; yet Campania also has very beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers. And a lot of more or less cool hiking routes, great for a 2-3 day trip, e.g. at Easter, as
Pulsano Abbey in Gargano is a place that may appeal to lovers of short hikes with a historical background. If you also like medieval churches, you should definitely visit the Abbey of Our Lady of Pulsano (Abbazia di Santa Maria di Pulsano).
I know, there are thousands of churches in Italy, so why bother with this one? Especially since the
If the beautiful Renaissance Urbino were in Tuscany, it would probably be swarming with tourists. But it is in the Marche, on the wrong side of the Apennines. It is also not the easiest accessible place, you can’t get there by train or plane, so it is still relatively free of crowds.
I hope it stays that way, even
Path of the Lemons or Sentiero dei Limoni, was not a particularly popular place among holidaymakers on the Amalfi Coast just a few years ago. As I recently had the opportunity to see, this is changing – there were quite a few people on the route.
Costiera Amalfitana is one of the most picturesque places in Italy, offering stunning seaside
Gravina di Ginosa is the main attraction of Ginosa – a town located on the border of Puglia and Basilicata. Ginosa is famous for its antiquity and the canyon, Gravina di Ginosa.
In the town, founded around 1500 BC (the exact date is unknown), traces of human activity from the Neolithic period have been found. Additionally, the Greeks, Romans,
