Italian villas to rent on your next vacation in
Italy
Italy
is a land celebrated for the arts, and not the least
among the arts that have attained their highest
expression in Italy is the art of hospitality.
The Italian welcome is as warm and traditional as
a glass of fine wine. This comparison is apt, for
travelers in ancient times gave the country its
first name:Land of Wines.
Italians are such good hosts because they get so
much practice welcoming visitors from all over the
world. From the sunny southern slopes of the Alps
to the lush orange groves of Sicilia, Italy offers
enormous variety in its natural scenery and historical
backgrounds. Because a good part of Italy grew up
as a collection of independent city-states, customs
and food vary greatly from region to region.
This rich history is preserved in the colorful folklore
festivals that take place in all of Italy's regions
throughout the year.
