| Roma: |
|
|
Cradle of the western civilization and the heart of Christianity, Rome is the one city in the world that possesses the most masterpieces. Its narrow and shady center streets, the small hidden squares, the gushing fountains, the incredibly green gardens, the silent and enigmatic people and its millions of marble statues; the extraordinary richness of the artistic, historic and religious patrimony, the lively markets, the old gastronomic traditions and the ´dolce vita', render the Eternal City one of the main destinations of international tourism.

| Venezia: |
|
|
The real Queen of water is Venice, unique town for many reasons, not last the way it has been constructed (apart from any pittoresque suggestion) which reveals intelligence and a great architectural ability. Even simple numbers in this case take a special meaning: 411 bridges, 118 small islands, 150 channels - the ´Canal Grande' is 3800 mt long - are the basis of this town miracle. Its artistical, historical and cultural treasure is due to an incredible, intricate and harmonious communication system based on water and on stones. The power of this millenary civilization has been so strong that has gone beyond the limits of the lagoon and, mixing with the original features of the rest of the region, gave to the entire Veneto the particular and characteristical Venice influence.

| Todi: |
|
|
Posto al centro della province di Terni e di Perugia, Todi offre al visitatore un momento di relax e nello stesso tempo un sensazionale ritorno all'antico, all'epoca delle strade polverose, agli ormai noti tempi umbri che richiamano alla mente San Francesco d'Assisi.
Di questo lembo di terra sembra che la civiltà moderna si sia dimenticata e tutto assume un aspetto più mistico e più accogliente. (Place: Todi, Tuoro sul Trasimeno)
