Italy (with San Marino/Vatican City)

Madonn', so much of the bel paese is a mindblowing museum, foodie paradise, and more. Rome, Venice, Florence, Sicily, Naples, Milan - so many of the most iconic destinations in travel - along with thousands of lovely and fascinating back roads. If you haven't been here, you must remedy that immediately.

Beautiful Bari!

alxpin Italy is famously packed with glorious cities to explore, which means a magical spot like Bari – which would be a headliner in many other countries – here tends to be overshadowed by the likes of Rome, Florence, Venice, its fellow southern-Italian destination Naples, and even neighbouring Apulia (Puglia) region gem Lecce. But to miss out on Apulia’s capital – astride the Adriatic Sea right on the heel of Italy’s famous boot shape – would be a shame for reasons I’m about to go into. And…

very interesting, Ed! thanks for sharing :-) Garibaldi was one of the very few recent Italian history all-positive figures. His nickname was the the "two World-Hero" becuase he also fought in the Uruguay and Brasil revolutions

Buzz, Garibaldi is a hero on Staten Island, too, where I grew up. He lived there (with the inventor Anthony Meuci) in the 1850s before returning to Italy and the revolution. The house they lived in is now a museum. Garibaldi has followed me to Manhattan, as well; there's a glorious monument to him (installed in 1888) in Washington Square Park. Anyone else here know either of these sites?
