Assisi is a favorite destination for a large number of tourists, most of them dedicated to St Francis, coming together at certain times of the year to make pilgrimages. It is one of the most important centers in all of Christendom. Find out here Where to sleep in Assisi?
Its Tourism and Attractions
The reason for tourism, encouraged by the Umbrian population, historically comes from the birth and life of San Francisco (in 1182); Francis of Assisi, who left all his wealth to dedicate himself to the poor and who wrote the Song of Songs, adoration of the divine nature of all things. The wonderful Assisi stands out artistically, thanks to its monuments of typical medieval architecture that influenced Italians and European artists of the time. The visit to the Umbra Valley also includes other small historic villages. READ ALL OUR POSTS ABOUT UMBRIA

All these places, which extend along the Umbra Valley and Mount Subasio, have a charming silence that invites meditation and the rediscovery of a religious dimension. An area where culture, religion and nature merge, creating a treasure of priceless historical and tourist value. How to visit Cassia from Rome?

Throughout its three millennia of history, the city has become the first great metropolis of humanity, the heart of one of the most important ancient civilizations, which influenced society, culture, language, literature, art, architecture, philosophy, religion, law and customs of the following centuries. Rome is the heart of Catholic Christianity; in fact, it is the only city in the world to host an entire internal state, Vatican City, which is why it is often called the capital of two states.

Capri Island
What about the beautiful island of Capri, each year one of the most sought-after tourist destinations by the elite and not only famous in Italy, but worldwide. The important historical centers from the tourist point of view are Capri, Anacapri, Marina Grande and on the other side, Marina Piccola. Anacapri is connected to the port of Capri through a rocky path that gave rise to the Phoenician (built by the Greeks). Find out here Where to sleep in Capri?
In the 20th century, famous characters and artists such as Pablo Neruda, Curzio Malaparte, Sibilla and many others, visited Capri, but the most beautiful places to endorse the island that they attributed an undeniable and magnificent fame, Faraglioni and the extraordinary beauty of Grotta Azzurra (Blue Grotto), located on the north side of the island. CAPRI TIPS
Amalfi Coast
At this point, with the car we head to the Amalfi Coast, known for the unmistakable beauty of its nature and the destination of an enviable international tourism. The coast is protected as a public heritage by Unesco. Much of the coast is protected as the Monti Lattari Natural Park, which includes the cities of Amalfi, Positano, Ravello, Maiori and Vietri Sul Mare.
The whole area contains other villages, which, although small, know how to arouse amazement and admiration at the spectacular, charming and romantic views such as the famous Positano which, since the times of the Roman Empire, has been a holiday destination for its favorable climate and its fantastic natural landscape. The coast is a beautiful resort, a jewel worth seeing at least once in your life. COAST AMALF TIPS?
9) What to visit in Italy in thirty days? 2 DAYS IN BASILICATA
Always at this point with the car, it is very important not to miss Matera, at Basilicata; you will be delighted when you discover The Sassi and the Stone Church of Matera Park.
The Sassi of Matera
The Sassi of Matera, a place that attracts millions of tourists for its uniqueness and beauty, is a unique, original experience, one of a kind. In 1993, UNESCO has cataloged Sassi of Matera as a World Heritage Site, thus allowing the reinforcement of this very special place where the houses are in harmony with the large opening in the rocky caves.

Another aspect that enriches the Sassi of Matera are the beautiful monasteries carved in the rock that make up what is called the stone churches of Matera Park. Here we find the sacred complex like Benedictine Cenobi and Byzantine Laure. In fact, in these caves, the Christian monks had created centers of worship, where they met with their cargo in an underground church, creating stone churches; monuments that even today, after centuries, return their beauty.
10) What to visit in Italy in thirty days? 5 DAYS IN SICILY
The last days of our trip will be dedicated to splendid Sicily, where the plane, from Bari, will take us to Palermo and then to Syracuse and, finally, we reserve the beautiful Taormina. SEE ALL OUR POSTS ABOUT SICILY
Palermo
We start from Palermo, the regional capital, as well as beautiful city. Elegant and contradictory, which embodies an Arab look, Norman, with Gothic-Catalan nuances and Baroque opulence. Full of aromas and flavors that are found in street foods and desserts, a city that hides its secrets well, showing itself generous with those who visit it, but keeping its mystery. We head from Palermo, by car, to reach Syracuse.
Syracuse
Syracuse is a beautiful city with urban architecture and a Greek and Roman plant structure, but Sicilian Baroque is the host, just as Ortigia Square is notable for its beauty. Then there is the sea, which creates a stunning setting, and the palate that can be enjoyed by the typical and tasty smells of Sicilian food. Syracuse is a jewel among the most beautiful cities on the peninsula!
Taormina
Finally, we chose the mythical Taormina. Sicilian city of art and culture, with a unique view of contrasts and their varieties, in which Mount Etna remains unchallenged, is a combination of luck, culinary delights, a charming place and a source of inspiration for artists , poets of all ages and nationalities. Whether for a few or several days, Taormina and its surroundings offer a lot to visit, even for the most demanding tourists. With Taormina, our trip that lasted thirty days ended. TIPS ON TAORMINA

Conclusion
What to visit in Italy in thirty days? Traveling 30 days in Italy, we cannot see even half the beauties of this wonderful country, but this, in my opinion, will be an incentive for you to return and look around, visit what is not seen and maybe return to a place that has been particularly encouraging. Obviously this itinerary is “super” fast and aims to quickly visit the most classic places and monuments, if you prefer a more peaceful trip I advise you to take out at least two or three regions (according to your taste).
