Italy is a peninsula with a particular shape: that of

a cowboy boot.

In it you can find lots of kinds of landscape and many

natural beauties, such as high mountains, cultivated low-

lands, crystal clear lakes and a wonderful sea.

In the north, our country is crossed by the mountain

chain Alpi, instead the center and the south are crossed

by Appennini. Italy was the cradle of the Roman Empire

and therefore have a splendid ruins of her glorious past.

Just think of all the artistic and architectural sites that are

in Roma, Pompei and other historical towns.

Do not forget moreover the beauty and originality of a

city like Venezia, completely built on the Lagoon, with

canals, the beautiful churches and palaces, or Firenze,

which preserves the historical memory of centuries of

culture ...

In southern Italy, then there are the ruins of ancient

Greek colonies, which fascinate with their majesty and

beauty. We would like you know a little even the people

of our country who love music, culture, art and dance,

but also like good food ...

Especially, however, Italian men go crazy for football

and watching a match come back joyful and enthusiastic

children! In short, Italy is a land to visit it because it is

only one in the world. Come, and you will love.…
