Top Places to Visit

Rome

Rome is the capital of Italy and the region of Lazio. Its history spans more than two and a half thousand years, so it’s not surprising Rome is one of the most important tourist destinations. It’s filled with archaeological treasures such as magnificent villas, sculptures, mosaics and unique traditions. There are many museums and numerous ancient sites worth visiting. The Colosseum is probably the most iconic site, and is often regarded as a wonder of the world. Rome is also recognized as a world fashion capital so there are many luxury boutiques along the famous Via dei Condotti street. If you get hungry from all the walking you can always try some Roman cuisine such as spaghetti or lamb and vegetables.

Sperlonga

Sperlonga is a beautiful coastal town in the province of Latina, halfway between Rome and Naples. You’ll recognize it by its whitewashed houses clustered together on a steep headland, and lovely squares and winding alleyways that will bring you to terraces above the sea. The old town is very charming but the real treasure lies south in form of gorgeous beaches with beautiful clean sand and water. If you walk along the beach from the Sperlonga headland you’ll reach a nature reserve. Sperlonga’s most famous vacationer was Tiberius, the second emperor of Rome, who built a villa there. The villa included a grotto, today an Archaeological museum, where some famous sculptures have been found.
