tell a story that can move you to its core Once Upon a Time in a land far far I'm just kidding Pompeii was a rich and prosperous trading town set against the backdrop of Mount Vesuvius on the Italian Coast and on the 24th of August 79 CE Vesuvius spewed fire Ash and rock when the fiery eruption in history and it engulfed the entire city of Pompeii and several others but two thousand years later

have heard of the beautiful Amalfi Coast and it's here where you'll find the small town of riverlo sitting Atop The Cliff overlooking the beautiful turinian sea with history dating back to the 9th century and I feel it's less crowded than any other popular towns in the southern Italy region but two of ravello's attractions that are absolutely worth your time Avila Ruffalo and villaging brownie now these Villas date back to the 11th century and they showcase some stunning Gardens as well as some beautiful views of the sea and coastline [Music] number three iskia now this is the biggest island in the Bay of Naples and also the most diverse now compared to its neighbors I feel that iska has better beaches similarly also beaches that are more sandier and more accessible even more public beaches than the nearby destinations and the funny thing is you can even visit every Beach on the island without paying a penny I know I didn't but he's also famous for its thermal spas and of course the Striking arrogance Castle you also have the car free Perfection of santangelo so to get there you can take the very inexpensive ferries that depart Naples Daily so make the most of it [Music] number four production now this destination is famous for its pretty pastel colored buildings that all lie in the harbor so easily one of the best things to do is to hike up to the Viewpoint so you can admire pratchetta in all of its Glory and yes it will be very hot and sweaty but I promise you the view is worth the effort so the best Viewpoint in Project is located on the opposite side of the island to where the ferry drops you off but there are also plenty of signs pointing the way and you can also type these words which I've put on the screen into Google Maps or Maps me to find your way there foreign [Music] [Music] number five Capri [Music] now this is a Rocky island off the shores of the Southern Italian region of capanya and it's on the southern edge of the Bay of Naples now Capri is beautiful seriously beautiful it may be small but it's probably the most fashionable Square in the world and one thing everybody agrees on is that it's the heart of the island where sooner or later all those visiting Canterbury come to watch the work go by so if you like to people watch and just bask in the ambience or for an island then this is a destination you need to head to but one more tourist attraction that you might not know of in Anna Capri is the chairlift in monticellero which will give you some fantastic views so don't forget to strap yourself in [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] within a remote corner of southern Italy this city is definitely one of the most unique and spectacular destinations for you to check out this year abandoned caves ancient neighborhoods and a series of limestone grottos Baroque churches and even more caves so Matera still has that little air of being undiscovered you can roam through the Labyrinth and narrow cobblestone streets and the uneven staircases so it's a perfect location for you just to wander and get lost [Music] regarded as the shame of Italy in the 1950s since then the extraordinary environment has now been recognized as a European capital of culture so out of all the places in Italy that you could go this year this might be a good option [Music] number seven Austin [Music] also known as lachita Bianca the White City now this is a stunning Hilltop town and it's also known for its strikingly white buildings which contrasts beautifully with the blue skies and the Green Hills that surround the town another city with winding streets and Alleyways which is perfect just to wander around but you'll come across hidden Courtyards beautiful balconies and stunning views of the surrounding Countryside so the sensory is the perfect place just to soak up the relaxed atmosphere but you'll find a Charming Street to visit which is via cathedrale which leads to the cathedral and offers beautiful views of the town foreign number eight Sheila a stunningly located fishing Village in the Calabria region on the toe of Italy's boot a rocky spur topped with an ancient Fortress that separates two narrow strips of Seashore that's hemmed in by steep hillsides so this Village is packed with beautiful beaches colorful terracotta towns and stunning landscapes so with a rich culinary Heritage it's hard to understand why Calabria doesn't get as much attention from foreign visitors as its other Italian counterparts so if you're looking for historical landmarks here then the rufo castle has breathtaking views which overlooks the beach so whether you go with the entire family or just a romantic Escape for two you can be sure to enjoy all that Sheila has to offer [Music] agree gentle now there are many wonderful things to do in Sicily and one of them is visiting the Greek temples of agricento on the West Coast was once an influential Greek City a strategic location on the Sicilian Coast made aggregento a powerful place even during Roman rule so what would you want to see here well the Greeks built a number of temples and the group that came to be known as the valley of temples is now a UNESCO site so it's only a two-hour train ride from Palermo and I highly recommend despite you having any interest in history is to visit angry gentle number 10 taramina now I recommend this as a great day trip or even for a relaxing weekend it's one of the best places in Sicily to visit especially if you're traveling the East Coast down to Catania so it's roughly a one hour drive from the Catania Airport which makes it really easy to visit as part of a wider Sicilian Adventure the streets are open into Terraces and each one with that postcard worthy view of the sea or even the mountain the best known view that's immortalized by painters for centuries is from the glammark Greek Theater built in the 3rd Century BC by the Greeks and completely rebuilt a century later by the Romans it's still largely intact and used for performances after admit it's pretty impressive [Music] thank you [Music] and there you have it folks that is just a taste
