"My trips to Italy 1992-2002" Italy by matcrazy1

Italy Travel Guide: 83,926 reviews and 173,049 photos

.

I have already visited most regions of Italy and - believe me - I think that Sicilly is the most interesting of them. Because of nature (sea, mountains with Etna ), historic ruins and monuments, famous resorts like Taormina and people.

The second best region is the Mediterranean Coast (Amalfi Coast) south of Naples from Salerno to Sorrento with island of Capri and nearby ruins of Pompei and the volcanic summit of Vesuvius - really unforgettable.

And the third my favourite destination in Italy is the Mediterranean coast north of La Spezia - Cinque Terre Peninsula (Five Earths) - wild and inaccesible.

And of course three well known destinations: Florence, Rome and Venice.

You have seen some nice places in Italy Matt. I would like to see the Capuchin Catacombs. Although morbid, I find it pretty fascinating.

This page has one of the biggest ever sets of travelogues I have ever seen! A Death museum indeed!

Some mighty fine travelogues, Matt, especially Sicily. It's quite obvious how much you loved Sicily. You've certainly traveled all over Italy, my very favorite place in all the world.

Heh, someone's gonna have to teach you how to put links to all those pages you are encouraging us to visit. That Museum of Death looks intriguing. Certainly not the usual
