Italy, nestled in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea in Southern Europe, is a country known for its iconic contributions to art, history, fashion, food, and music. Home to an incredible 55 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the country is famed for monuments like the Colosseum, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the Vatican City - the smallest country in the world. Italy is the birthplace of the Renaissance, a period that produced artists and scholars such as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo who left an unparalleled cultural legacy. Internationally renowned for its cuisine, Italy is the land of pizza, pasta, and world-class wine, inviting its visitors to indulge in its rich and diverse gastronomic culture. The breathtaking landscapes of the Amalfi Coast, the romantic waterways of Venice, and the rustic charm of Tuscany offer a compelling blend of sightseeing delights and leisurely pursuits.

Italy

Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, is an autonomous region of Italy located right at the toe of the country's "boot." This sun-drenched island is famous for its rich history, vibrant culture, and sumptuously indulgent cuisine. Known for its stunning coastal landscapes, towering Mount Etna - one of Europe’s most active volcanoes, and enchanting ancient ruins like the Valley of the Temples and the well-preserved Greek theatres in Siracusa and Taormina, Sicily is a veritable treasure trove for any history buff or nature lover. The island is also the birthplace of cannoli and arancini, showcasing a unique culinary tradition that perfectly marries the fresh flavours of the Mediterranean.

Sicily

I stay in Sicily for 10 days. It was really relaxant. My favorite moment was when I did a boat tour in Siracus and when i were in the beach of Licata.
Sicily is very fascinating for me because there, people sleep the day and live the night.
