Italy's Finest: Rome, Venice, Florence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798884844681)

OMNIBUS EDITION of the guides to Rome, Venice, and Florence, also available separately, with an added introduction.

With this historical guidebook, you will get to know three cities like no other in the world. Buckle up for an exciting journey throughout the centuries!

ROME, the Eternal City, has long been the capital of one of the greatest empires in history. It is now an open-air museum that welcomes visitors with monuments dating back two thousand years, elaborate fountains, opulent Baroque palaces, and countless churches, including the world's largest and most majestic: St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican.

VENICE is the lagoon city everybody loves for its romantic atmosphere, its canals, which can be explored by gondola, its stunning mansions, and an array of beautiful churches. Learn about this fascinating town built on water that was once a commercial powerhouse with a navy capable of dominating the Mediterranean Sea and footholds as far as Istanbul and the Holy Land.

FLORENCE, the cradle of the Renaissance, is famous for its spectacular cathedral, topped by Brunelleschi's magnificent dome and flanked by Giotto's bell tower, its many museums, and a lively inner city whose streets are packed with shops and restaurants. Many of the Renaissance's greatest masters worked here, including absolute geniuses like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael.

Please note that this is a historical guide. It does not include lists of hotels and restaurants, nor does it contain pictures or maps.
