Travel To Italy And Experience Europe

Travel To Italy And Experience Europe

If you want to experience Europe, you need to travel to Italy. No other country on earth offers the depth, breadth, and scope of Italy. For lovers of art, history, architecture, or music Italy is unsurpassable. From the Ancient Roman Empire to the Medieval Tuscan fortress towns and the Venetian Republic, Italy’s incredible historical diversity has come together to produce a country so incredible, so remarkable, so beautiful as to leave the visitor with an unquenchable desire to return again and again. The legacy of the Renaissance and its masterpieces of art, music, and architecture have left such a tangible mark on the Italian soul one can barely help being swept along in the tide of culture. If you’re a lover of nature, there are majestic mountains, crystal seas, rolling hills, fertile plains, sweeping cliffs, and magical lagoons, you need to travel to Italy.

Travel to Italy – The Cities to See

Milan is rivaled only by Paris as the fashion capital of the world and is shopping at its best. Rome has been the heart of Italy from the time of the Romans through today; to walk its streets is to walk in the footsteps of Emperors and Popes. Florence is the birthplace of the Renaissance and its presence reverberates through the old cobbled streets and beautiful churches. Venice – the most unique and romantic city in the world, stands timeless and beautiful in the midst of the Adriatic, a magnificent creation highlighting man at his most artistic. Finally the majestic and striking natural beauty of the Amalfi Coast, a place to relax, soak in the tremendous natural beauty, dine on the world’s favorite cuisine at its finest, and experience that special joy of being that is uniquely Italian. No matter what you’re seeking, it awaits you when you travel Italy and visit its cities.

The Weather

When you travel to Italy, it’s important to know that despite its geographical position at the center of the temperate zone, Italy has rather variable climatic characteristics. This is due to the presence of the Mediterranean, whose warm waters mitigate thermal extremes, and the Alpine arc, which forms a barrier against the cold north winds. Furthermore, when you travel Italy, remember that Italy is subject to both wet and moderate atmospheric currents from the Atlantic Ocean and dry and cold ones from Eastern Europe.

The Apennine chain too, confronting the wet winds from the Tyrrhenian, causes considerable climatic differences between the opposite sides of the peninsula. The differences in temperature between the winter and summer months are more marked in the northern regions than in the south and along the coasts. The mean temperatures for the month of January in the Po Plain fluctuate around zero, while in the Alpine valleys the thermometer can drop to -20º and snow can remain on the ground for many weeks.

In the southern regions, instead, the mean temperatures for January remain around 10º, with the exception of the inland mountainous zones. Mean summer temperatures throughout all Italy rise to 24º-25º for July, only being lower in the highest zones. Rainfall distribution also varies considerably, due to the influence of both mountains and prevailing winds. The highest quantities are registered in the Alpine arc (over 3,000 mm pa in the Lepontine and Julian Alps) and on the Apennines (over 3,000 mm pa in the Apuan Alps). The plains, however, including that of the Po, receive scarce precipitation. Generally it is less than 800-900 mm pa but in the southern regions (Tavoliere and southern Sicily) it falls below 600 mm pa. The great internal Alpine valleys and the coastal plains of the Tyrrhenian (Maremma) and Sardinia also receive little rain. Altogether, six large climatic regions can be distinguished, mainly characterized by mountain influence.

So as you can see, when you travel to Italy, there is much to experience. The culture, history, and beauty of Italy make Italy a top European travel destination.

Tour Eastern Europe

To Tour Eastern Europe, I Would Have to See Russia.
An area of the world that I have always found fascinating is Eastern Europe, and I will periodically see travel deals to the region for reasonable prices. For me, however, to tour Eastern Europe, I would have to see Russia.

One of the things that most appeals to me about going to tour Eastern Europe is the fact that it seems so unexplored compared to Western Europe. In other words, I have been to Ireland, England, France, Spain, Holland and Germany, but I have never visited Czechoslovakia, Poland or any of the former Soviet countries at all.
I think probably the first place I would want to visit on an Eastern European tour is Prague. I have heard that it is absolutely beautiful and that it did not sustain nearly as much damage during World War II as some of the other great cities of Europe. In pictures I have seen of the city, it looks very clean and the architecture is beautiful.
I would probably continue on to Poland and Romania, simply because I do not know a whole lot about either country, and then it would be on to Russia. There are a number of places I would like to see in Russia, and in my mind, no tour of Eastern Europe would be complete without seeing the largest country by area in the world.

With my great passion for art, the first place I would stop would be St. Petersburg to see the Hermitage museum. Some of the greatest Russian works of art are housed in this museum, and it is renowned universally for being one of the greatest museums in the world.

St. Petersburg is a must when I tour Eastern Europe for another reason, in that from what I have heard, it has a different feel than other Russian cities. From what I have come to understand, St. Petersburg is much more like a Western European city, and while my interest is certainly in discovering Eastern Europe, I would like to see for myself if that is true.
I would definitely have to travel to Moscow as well and see the Kremlin and Red Square. I think this would be one of the most fascinating aspects of the trip, because for all of my childhood the Cold War was going on, and the Soviet Union was the United States’ enemy. Of course, there is probably no greater symbol of the former Soviet government than the Kremlin.
If I ever were to tour Eastern Europe, these are some of the places I would definitely want to see. From what I have read about Eastern Europe, it sounds very interesting and I would love to learn more about the history of the area. What better way is there to do that than by going there?
