Welcome to Italy![]() Italy post-pandemic Those of us who are thankful to be travelling again, and those Italy-lovers considering a return will be considering new ways of travel. Maybe extended trips or visits to favourite Italian places will make up for what we have missed. Flying less often but staying longer is one way of lightening your environmental impact and minimising the complications and formalities of cross-border journeys and variations in Covid rules. It's more important than ever now to read the latest advice, check you have good travel insurance cover, and make sure that bookings are refundable. As time goes on we're all nearer to our next low-stress spring or summer holiday in Italy.

![]() Italian citiesItaly is a dream destination for city breaks, with three of the world's most beautiful cities: Rome, where antiquities bask in the sunshine in a colourful and lively metropolis, Florence, probably the art capital of the world, and unique Venice. Those in search of culture or vibrant modernity may prefer the charms of fashionable Milan or stately Turin, while the intrepid can dive into the colourful chaos of historic Naples. Italy off the beaten trackAs well as all the famous sights, this website also specialises in the less well-known treasures of Italy. Away from the famous cities, the Italian destinations featured on Italy Heaven include attractive villages, lakes and islands that are off the main tourist trail, like cave-town Matera, the unique volcanic Aeolian islands, lovely, little-known Lake Iseo and the ancient Greek city of Syracuse (modern Siracusa) in Sicily. You'll also find suggestions for interesting excursions in the overlooked area around Rome, with recommended daytrips including unusual spots like the cave of an emperor at Sperlonga and Terracina's temple above the sea? ![]() More about ItalyItaly Heaven has a blog for the latest website news, Italy stories, and random thoughts and anecdotes.
