CITIES AND REGIONS
Italian Islands Here!
 Naples
The country's second largest city lies in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius in the Campania Region, in southern Italy. It's the most prosperous city in the region and is filled with many historical churches, castles, palaces, museums and subterranean tunnels. Due to its location on the Gulf of Naples, the popular islands of Capri and Ischia as well as Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast are easily reached by ferries and hydrofoils from its waterfront (shown above).

The most famous landmark in this city is of course the Leaning Tower of Pisa. However, the tower is just one of many remarkable structures located here. The Campo dei Miracoli (Field of Miracles), the Knights' Square where the Palazzo della Carovana is located, along with several churches and palaces make Pisa an interesting adventure.

Siena
Located in the heart of the Tuscany Region, Siena is one of the most beautiful cities in Italy. Set on three hills, and drawn together by winding alleys and steep steps, its managed to retain a medieval look and feel. The Piazza del Campo, in the center of the city, is considered to be one of the finest town squares in the entire country. Siena offers several interesting art museums and the Gothic-style Duomo is a must-see. For more information on Siena, visit these links:

Venice
Located in northeastern Italy, Venice is widely considered Italy's (and the world's) most beautiful and romantic city. Literally standing in a lagoon just barely above the water line, it consists of 117 islands, and the city is connected by over 400 bridges that cross its 150 canals. It's small and compact, and the traffic-free streets (no vehicles allowed) along the winding canals are great for walking and sight-seeing. There are many magnificent churches and palaces, lively piazzas and interesting shops here. For more information on Venice, visit these links:
