Italy

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.

8 interesting off-the-beaten path corners of Rome

Erik TörnerMy country´s capital famously boasts some of the world´s most legendary and inspiring tourist attractions, such as the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Spanish Steps, and Vatican City. But Rome is also overflowing with millennia worth of riches that get less attention from visitors intent on their “bucket lists”, and exploring these places off the usual tourist track can give you a deeper, more authentic, and more serene experience of the Eternal City – and by the way, avoid the…

Seeking a hotel in Naples to review this October (2025)

My colleague and I be on a press trip to Sorrento from October 19-22, and wanted to add a couple of extra nights in Naples. I am seeking Naples properties that are open to hosting a journalist in exchange for articles in upscale publications from the 16th-18th (I will provide recently published PDFs from these publications) covering a variety of topics (luxury travel, business travel, culinary travel) and am traveling with a wellness journalist on the same trip. We are open to sharing a room,…

Gorizia is a European Capital of Culture for 2025

Krzysztof Golik Located at the foot of the Julian Alps in Italy´s Friuli-Venezia Giulia region about 45 minutes from Trieste, Gorizia has a population of just over 33,000 and is rich in history dating back to the year 1000, as well as scenic beauty and a unique blend of Italian, Slovenian, and Austro-Hungarian influences dating back to its long tenure as part of the Habsburg empire. The Piazza della Victoria (Victory Square) is the hub of the old town, and must-visit historical landmarks…

Sicily, where what’s not on the tour itinerary is as important as what is

Victor Block It happens all the time with the tour operator Overseas Adventure Travel. I start out expecting to write about the trip itself – in this case, Sicily's Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions"-- and I end up writing about all the things that aren't on the itinerary – what OAT refers to as "learning and discovery." Sure, I wanted to focus on the extensive ruins of the Greeks and Romans from the 8th century BCE; the city market initiated by the Arabs in 900 CE still operates…

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
Ed Wetschler January 19, 2011 at 8:58pm

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?
