For the culturally curious

 

Italy is well known to be the crib of culture containing, it is said, 60% of UNESCO world heritage sites. Percentages aside, due to its history of city states, Italy boasts a plethora of amazing towns: Florence, Rome, Venice, Naples, Palermo, Milan and many many others, all with their distinctive physiognomy and character. The countryside is dotted with extraordinary little villages and almost everywhere there is amazing art and architecture to see.
