What would the world be without
Italy?
 As you discover Italy, you'll explore its cities such as Rome known as the "eternal city", Florence the city that gave birth to the Renaissance, Venice built on a hundred and twenty little islands and the crown jewel of Christianity Vatican City.
Thousands of visitors travel each year seeking the treasures of Rome, Florence, Venice and the Vatican on a small peninsula named Italy.

Unquestionably it would be much
poorer. We're not referring to the economy of course,
there are the United States for this and Japan, too.
Since childhood we all have been taught that the very
richness is not money, but culture, art and a true sense
of life, things that the Italians have in great
abundance.
Imagine a book of art without
the masterpieces in sculpture, architecture and painting
by Michelangelo, Botticelli, Brunelleschi,
Raffaello.
Think about music without
Vivaldi, Rossini, Verdi or Puccini, and the navigators?
Columbus who discovered the new continent and Amerigo
Vespucci who realized that it was a New World and for
this reason America has his name. And the inventors and
scientists like Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo
Galilei.
Italy is a Country where the
past is written everywhere, nobody can forget
this. When you go around visiting the beautiful
coasts, the scenic mountains, admiring the small
villages among the hills or the superb cities of Rome,
Florence, Venice, Milan and Naples, the print of
man is there, part of our life, all of
us.
To
visit Italy is a necessity of spirit, as those in the
past knew very well. The final step in completing their
cultural education.
