Bursting with gorgeous photographs and abundant travel information, this book is a showcase of 60 of Italy's off-the-beaten-path towns and villages--some of which are only a short drive from the more popular tourist spots like Venice, Rome, and Florence. Ranging in size and brimming with charm, these lesser-known destinations feature historic town centers, quaint stores, villages atop rocky cliffs, castles, and streets bustling with restaurants. Offering information for art lovers, history buffs, outdoor enthusiasts, foodies, shopaholics, beach bums, and others, this comprehensive tribute spotlights the wonders of Bella Italia, from breathtaking art and ancient sites to opulent cathedrals and local marketplaces. Not to be overlooked are the stunning beaches, beautiful landscapes, outdoor adventures, and culinary delights found throughout the boot-shaped land. A trip to Italy is already on the bucket list for many travelers, and this book is sure to inspire even more Italian adventures for veteran travelers, tourists planning their first trip to Italy, and armchair travelers interested in vicariously exploring the storied country.
