Italy has drawn people in search of culture, cuisine and beautiful landscapes for many centuries. Few countries can compete with its art, architecture, food, wine and scenery. Italy has no single cultural identity but rather a plethora of distinctive regions and peoples from the snow capped peaks of the Dolomites in the north to the rugged southern shores of Sicily, offering a diversity of dialects, cuisine, architecture and artisanship.
It is this diversity and the deep connection to tradition in the context of a modern society, that makes Italy such an exciting country to visit.
