Macerata

Once the core of the mighty Roman Empire, and the cradle of the Renaissance, it is also home to the greatest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the world, including high art and monuments. Italy is famous for its delicious cuisine, it's trendy fashions, luxury sports cars and motorcycles, diverse regional cultures and dialects, as well as for its various sceneries from the seas to the Alps and Apennines, all reasons why it got nickcoded Il Bel Paese (the Beautiful Country). One of the great things about Italy is that its long thin shape means that when you get fed up with sightseeing you are often a relatively short distance from a beach. In many of the more popular areas, large sections of beach are reserved as paid beaches. Italy is full of differents cultures you can see: Etruscan Italy, The Greek influence, Roman ruins, Christian Italy, The Byzantine cities and The Renaissance.

The entire region exudes a restful atmosphere, far removed from the hubbub of more popular tourist spots. A former dependency of the Papal States, it has an impressive number of religious buildings unequalled in the rest of the country. Its natural beauty, well suited to walking and bike tours, is dotted with protected parks and nature reserves. In the far north of the region, near Umbria, foodies will find the valley of truffles and can taste dishes that make the most of their distinctive flavour.
