Valley of the Temples
Located in Sicily, these well-preserved doric temple architectures dates back from as far as 5th century BC. These temples once housed the statues of both Greek and Roman gods and goddesses.
Grand Canal
Riding in exquisite vaporetto, or water bus, one is taken to treat in the pristine waters traversing the city of Venice. The canal, spanning for 3.5 kilometers, gives a great view of the facades of Italian homes and edifices.
The Last Supper
The very famous painting by Leonardo Da Vinci is located here in the dining hall of Santa Maria delle Grazie church in Milan. Though the original mural painting has already deteriorated since, the restoration is so superb you can still take delight of Da Vinci’s creative brainchild.
Mount Vesuvius
