Hundreds of islands and bridges and one romantic city

Wonderful Venice is a perfect starting point. The romantic and historic city is known as the "bridges town" thanks to the hundreds of bridges connecting the town houses, which are built on many islands, and their canals. Venice was a city of commerce as soon as it was founded and many famous artists grew there. Thanks to its permissive rule and its openness to the city, it attracted the nobility of Europe and its annual masquerade carnival considered one of its features of hedonism. And even today, Venice is a city of romance and celebrations.

In the most famous square in the city, the beautiful San Marco Square, you can see the Basilica, the Doge's Palace and the Sighs Bridge and then cruise the gondola. Sailing to Truncto Island will reveal its beauty to you from a different angle and you should also visit the Jewish ghetto area. Yes, yes, Venice has been a Jewish ghetto since the 16th century and the word (ghetto is an Italian foundry) has become a space to describe all Jewish quarters in Europe and later to describe areas where minorities live. Venice's Jews have been subject to various restrictions over their lives in the ghetto over the years. For example, they were allowed out of its bell only at the bell in the morning and had to return to it by midnight. In the ghetto is the impressive synagogue of Venice and to this day is the center of life of the Jewish community in the city.

The sublime beauty of the dolomite rope

North of Venice is one of the most beautiful land in Italy and the world - the Dolomites. The views are breathtaking and dramatic. It is a mountain range that extends to the border with Austria and Switzerland with steep mountains, vast cliffs, snowy peaks, streams and lakes, picturesque villages and quite a few spectacular viewpoints, hiking trails and ski resorts.

Lake Karza is an example of that incredible beauty. The lake (Lago Di Carezza in Italian) is neither large nor deep, but the forests and snowy mountains around it make it special and beautiful. His nickname "Rainbow Lake" was given to him after the colors reflected in his waters. Peso di Sela is a beautiful and pleasant town where you can taste apple strudel and feel the Austrian atmosphere in the place. Cortina and Trento are the main cities in this region and are surrounded by plenty of ski resorts. Another attraction to experience is to climb by cable car to Mount Marmulde and overlook the mountainous and wooded landscape and the imposing Marmulde Glacier.

From the Dolomites it is worth continuing on to Verona, the city of lovers of Romeo and Juliet. The city center is intimate and elegant with a large amphitheater where concerts and live performances and a shopping street are held. In Verona is the world famous balcony - the one associated with Julia's house and below her beloved Romeo. The famous love story of everyone Shakespeare wrote made the city a symbol of romance and after a visit you can enjoy the elegant Piazza Bra cafes, visit the red brick castle Castelvillo or stroll along the banks of the Adige River.

The largest lake in the boot country

Verona is the link that links one amazing region to another amazing region. From the Dolomites to the Northern Italy Lakes region. Millions of tourists overflow the lakes Como, Majorca and Garda, which is the largest of the three. The blue landscape images of the water, the green of the forests and mountains and the azure of the sky depict the beauty of the place more than a thousand words. Just come, sit there and look around.

There are plenty of hiking trails and beautiful scenery around the lakes. The town of Riva del Garda on the edge of Lake Garda is eye-catching. The ancient and colorful houses and its picturesque beauty gave it the nickname "The Pearl of Lake Garda". It is located in the northern part of the lake and is elegant and quiet compared to the town of Sirmione in its south, which attracts many tourists and is considered more vibrant. In Riva del Garda you can enjoy lake cruising and is a base for mountaineers or cyclists who come to challenge themselves in the Italian Alps.

These are probably the five most beautiful villages in the world

At this point the eye is already insatiable, but Italy does not feel sorry. Every corner of this wonderful country seems to be the most beautiful in the world and then goes on to another area and it is revealed as a dome. A breathtaking country. As you sail from the Lakes Region and Milan to the Italian Riviera in Liguria, you reach another abode - "the five lands," or Chinkwa Terra, as these five isolated villages are called in Italian.

First, the road to them on a winding road over the sea with one of the waves and the other mountains, is an experience in itself. Then you come to the beautiful and secluded villages, which lie on steep slopes of mountains that slop to the water and their colorful houses against the beautiful landscape create a picturesque landscape that all you need to enjoy is to look.

The five villages are Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. UNESCO declared them a World Heritage Site and defined them as "harmonious human-nature interactions."

Stroll in a painting of nature

Traveling south will lead to the area in Italy that can be described in one word - "painting". The Tuscany region is fertile, rich, beautiful and rich in vines, history, culture and art. Its beauty has made it the destination of millions of tourists around the world who want to experience Italy's good life in full force.

The rural expanses, stone houses, fields and vineyards and medieval cities in which the great Renaissance artists operated make Tuscany a worldwide attraction. A visit to San Gimignano known as "Manhattan of Tuscany" due to the many towers that will expose you to the advanced construction technique from centuries ago. Oh yes, it will also expose you to some great local ice cream in the town square.

Siena is an impressive medieval city where time seems to have frozen. On its narrow streets you can still find the rims to which the horses would tie their horses and in the central square of the city, Piazza del Campo, the traditional horse race is held every summer. The Old City is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site and do not miss the visit to Duomo.

Love wine? You're in the perfect place. Tuscany is known for its excellent wineries, which for centuries have produced wine whose fame has been known throughout the world. A tour of the vineyards on the famous Chianti route, including a few bottles and some good cheeses, will provide you with a pleasant culinary respite. The way you can sign a visit to the world's most slanted architectural icon - the famous Pisa tower that glows in Libano and provides a beautiful view of the area.

And it is also recommended to visit the wider Republic Square where shopping and café stands and stroll through the beautiful Bobloi Gardens, which form the city's historic park.

Italy provides countless beautiful sights, wonderful flavors, historical sites and special attractions. Wherever you choose to hike you will have a delightful adventure. All you have left is to decide when and where, because enjoyment is already guaranteed.
