Lazio region
Latium is the birthplace of the antique Etruscan civilization and afterwards of
the great Roman Empire.It is a blend of different cultures that followed one to
another and that can be discovered all over the region:Tarquinia with the
Etruscan tombs and the National Etruscan Musem, Tivoli with the gorgeous Villa
of Emperor Adriano, Viterbo the Pope town and excellent example of medieval
architecture . Rome of course gathers all the different historical periods in
the highest artistic expression. The climate is mild and allows to enjoy the
different seasons in the best way. A car is highly reccomended and a detailed
map or a GPS navigator will be of great help.Possible itineraries and more
specific tips will be suggested on arrival.
