Perhaps the most unique attraction in Italy is the ancient Roman town of Pompeii, situated just 10 minutes from Naples this town used to be a wealthy Roman country retreat. In 79AD however Mount Vesuvius erupted entirely burying the village underneath volcanic ash. Pompeii is now excavated and restored and visitors can view restored villas, the temple and the forum. From nearby Ercolano or from Naples it is possible to take the bus to Mount Vesuvius itself and combine both of these spectacular sights into one day.

Rome is one of Italy's major attractions, this capital city surrounds the Vatican City and also boasts a huge number of Roman structures. The most famous of these structures is of course the Coliseum; this huge amphitheatre was used by Romans to stage gladiatorial fights for the entertainment of up to 50,000 people at a time. The Vatican City is in fact a state within itself and boasts a huge number museums, churches and other attractions including the exquisite Sistine Chapel. Rome also boasts an impressive number of bars, restaraunts, clubs and live music venues.

Geography
Italy resembles a boot about to kick the Sicilian "football," with the island of Sardinia already in the air. One of the most densely populated countries in Europe, Italy is characterized by rugged, mountainous terrain and thousands of miles of coastline. The Alps form a barrier to the north (blocking bad weather more successfully than they ever did invaders), and the Apennines run the length of the boot. Only in the north, in the Po River valley, is there relatively flat land. No place is very far from the sea. To the east is the Adriatic, to the southeast the Ionian and to the west the Tyrrhenian.
