Assisi, Italy, is a city where history and spirituality intertwine, creating an atmosphere that is both serene and awe-inspiring. Perched on the slopes of Mount Subasio in the Umbria region, Assisi is best known as the birthplace of St. Francis, one of the most beloved saints in Christianity. The city is a pilgrimage site for those seeking to walk in the footsteps of St. Francis, with the majestic Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi standing as a testament to his enduring legacy. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is adorned with breathtaking frescoes by Giotto and Cimabue, offering visitors a glimpse into the life of the saint and the artistic achievements of the medieval period. Beyond its religious significance, Assisi captivates with its medieval charm. The city’s narrow, cobbled streets wind through a landscape dotted with ancient stone buildings, flower-filled balconies, and peaceful piazzas. The Piazza del Comune, the city’s central square, is home to the Temple of Minerva, a remarkably preserved Roman temple that dates back to the 1st century BC. This juxtaposition of ancient Roman architecture with the city’s medieval and Renaissance structures creates a unique and enchanting atmosphere. Nature lovers will find Assisi equally appealing, as the city is surrounded by lush hills and olive groves that offer numerous hiking trails. The nearby Parco del Monte Subasio is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, providing stunning views of the Umbrian countryside and a peaceful retreat from the city’s historic center. For those interested in local cuisine, Assisi offers a taste of traditional Umbrian dishes, such as truffle pasta, wild boar, and Sagrantino wine, all of which can be savored in the town’s cozy trattorias. Assisi invites you to "Discover the Heart of Italy, Where History and Holiness Meet."

Roads? Where you're going you don't need roads... but don't rule out a romantic gondola ride or a water taxi. Welcome to Venice, with its network of canals, rich history and composition of over 100 small islands in the Adriatic Sea.
One of the most popular features of this Northern Italy capital is the Grand Canal, once a major center of the Renaissance. Be sure to see the central square Piazza San Marco, where all can marvel at Byzantine mosaics, the Campanile bell and St. Mark’s Basilica. Fine art, stunning architecture, white limestone bridges, moving about via watercraft... Venice is a singular experience and an astonishing masterpiece of civilization. Summer is the busiest time to visit, so plan accordingly. If you're looking for an unforgettable costume party, visit during Venice Carnival from the end of February to the beginning of March. |
