Amalfi Coast
#3 in Best Places to Visit in Italy
Reaching the cliff-side Amalfi Coast is certainly a trek, but travelers say the journey is more than worth it. The region covers more than two dozen miles of coastline and is home to 13 colorful seaside towns, each with its own unique story. Positano and Amalfi are the two most popular, housing numerous hotels and restaurants. While here, hike, relax on the beach and eat to your heart’s delight (there are multiple Michelin-starred restaurants in this region).
Florence
#4 in Best Places to Visit in Italy
Florence feels like small-town Italy, even though it’s the exact opposite. Situated in the scenic Tuscan valley, Florence is lined with adorable avenues leading to picturesque piazzas big and small. While you’re soaking up the city’s splendor, make sure to stop by the Piazza del Duomo, where the breathtaking namesake church is located, and the romantic Ponte Vecchio overlooking the Arno River, preferably at sunset.
