ITALY

Italy is the ruins of Pantheon and Colosseum, Pompeii and Herculaneum, Etruscan tombs in Tuscany and Greek temples in Sicily. Italy is the cradle of Renaissance and Michaelangelo frescoes and da Vinci’s art. Italy is also the home of Titian, Dante, Bottura and Prada. Italy leads the globe in beauty, art, fashion and style and ingenious cuisine from taglintelle to cannoli and powerhouse ales. Italy is also nature’s favorite canvas painted at leisure with icy Alps, glacial lakes, fiery craters and blue grottos and more.
