CENTRAL #ITALY! 1) #Abruzzo Abruzzo is located in central Italy, stretching from the heart of the #Apennines to the #Adriatic #Sea, on a mainly mountainous and wild land. The Adriatic coastline is characterized by long and sandy beaches to the north and pebbly beaches to the south. Over the years the Port of #Pescara became one of the most important tourist ports of Italy and the Adriatic Sea. 2) #Lazio Lazio is one of the most important regions for Italian, #European and world culture thanks to its historical, artistic, archaeological, architectural, religious and cultural contents. The immense extraordinary legacy hosted by the city of Rome is just one among hundreds of points of interest including towns, churches, monasteries, monuments and various sites in the region. #Rome alone has 30% of the artistic and cultural heritage in the world. The historical center of Rome, the extraterritorial property of the Holy See in the city and the #Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls are among the goods protected by the #UNESCO as #World #Heritage #Site. 3) #Marche The region is located in the Central area of the country, bordered by #Emilia-Romagna and the republic of San Marino to the north and the #Adriatic Sea to the east. Except for river valleys and the often very narrow coastal strip, the land is hilly. Inland, the mountainous nature of the region, even today, allows little travel north and south, except by rough roads over the passes.
