Italy

Rome, Italy’s capital, is a sprawling, cosmopolitan city with nearly 3,000 years of globally influential art, architecture and culture on display. Ancient ruins such as the Forum and the Colosseum evoke the power of the former Roman Empire. Vatican City, headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church, has St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums, which house masterpieces such as Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel frescoes.

Holiday to Italy is nearly a year-round destination and remains crowded all through the year. There’ll be fascinating places to see and things to do. In the north, there are alpine lakes, snow-swathed mountains, age-old towns and the glories of Venice. Rome, Florence, Sicily, Vesuvius, Naples, beaches and breathtaking countryside, among many other destinations command attention of tourists. Rome is a city that shows a perfect blend of both- old and new. The capital city of Italy proudly boasts of its rich past while keeping up with the changing world. It is the liveliest city of Italy- crowded, noisy, and a little rough around the edges. If the picturesque island of Sicily is part of one's Italy holiday package, he/she must not miss to head to regional park, Etna. The park is endowed with beautiful walking paths in addition to winter ski trails. Its fertile volcanic soil creates an amazing landscape that is rich in foliage, wildlife and bird life.
