'Sunshine,
wine and smart design'
What would it be like to wake up in the centre of the Roman Empire,have
a delicious lunch in a sumptuous 16th-century Renaissance villa,
and go to bed in the capital of 21st-century designer chic? Visit
Italy, taking in Rome, Florence
and Milan, and the experience is yours.
But that’s not all. Italy combines art history and contemporary
fashion with stunning natural landscapes: the turquoise waters of
the Costa Smeralda offer one of Europe’s
most beautiful stretches of sand, sea and sunshine, while the snow-covered
slopes of the Dolomite mountains are a haven for
winter sports enthusiasts.
Besides the renowned cities of Venice, Genoa
and Naples. There are romantic Medieval hill towns,
such as San Gimignano in Tuscany,
and unspoilt fishing villages, like the unforgettable Positano
on the Amalfi coast.
Visit vineyards and cellars to taste the very best regional wines
with the Veneto, famed for the sparkling white
prosecco, and Tuscany, home of the highly acclaimed
robust red, Brunello di Montalcino. And to really
get away from it all, take a boat to the islands of Sicily or Sardinia
to experience rural hospitality in the blissful Mediterranean. Italy
has so much to discover. |
