Italy Travel to Italy | Page 4

Once you land in Italy you may feel a bit overwhelmed with the amount of historical landmarks. If you are looking for a spiritual awakening you have St. Peters Basilica. St. Peters Basilica/The Vatican is the home of the Pope and head of the Roman Catholic Church. For those who want a more romantic setting you can visit Venice, where you can explore the city in a true gondola. If educational and historical site seeing is what interest you, than you will have an endless amount of sites ranging from the Coliseum in Rome to the many art museums in Florence. “Venice is the perfect place for a phase of art to die. No other city on earth embraces entropy quite like this magical floating mall” said Jerry Saltz. Of all these museums, Galleria degli Uffizi has to be the most famous. Works from all of the famous artists of the Renaissance are on display at the Uffizi including paintings and sculptures form Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli, Raphael, and Titian.
