Montecatini Terme is close to Florence, Siena, Chianti, Lucca and Pisa -- an ideal base to discover Tuscany at your leisure. Around Italy The Northern part of Italy is generally more prosperous, and most Italians associate themselves with their particular region. Some of those around Lombardia even want a federal republic of Padania, independent from Rome and the rest of Italy. Welcome to Italy : As stylish as the passagio on a Sunday. Stroll through the site by itinerary, region, or province. (In English, Italian, German, and Japanese). Summer on the beach is very popular in Italy, but most travellers visit the country for the culture. Italy holds one of the major positions in world culture. Their nationals have presented us with masterpieces in architecture, painting, sculpture, literature, and opera. Siena -- The Palio : Continuing in ancient tradition, the contradas compete on horses around the town square of Siena, Italy, every July 2nd and August 16th. Touring Bologna : What to see and do around Bologna. A deep site with plenty of information if you are planning a stay in Bologna. Not all of it is in English though.

Parma Verdi Country: Giuseppe Verdi was born in Roncole, on the 10th of October, 1813. Parma Tourist Information : From the Parma Municipal Administration Tourist Information and Assistance Offices; not all of it in English. Castles of Parma : Constructed in strategic points throughout the province of Parma, the castles are a wonderful sight. Parmesan Cheese : The world's favourite cheese to top spaghetti comes from Parmigiano-Reggiano; a true aristocrat among cheeses. And doctors claim it's good for you. Italian Tourism : Regional listings for Italian tourist boards; mostly just an address and telephone number. Travel by Train : Italian train timetables can only give you a rough idea, as the long distance trains often run late. Autostrada : How to make motorways interesting? The Italians do fine; with interactive maps, traffic forecasts, and even suggestions of games to play when stuck in a jam. Lago di Garda The Lake Garda region is very popular with Germans.
