Anconathe city consists of two separate parts, the old historic centre, with its medieval streets, steep slopes and steps, built on the slopes of the Guasco hill, with the Romanesque Cathedral of San Ciriaco (Saint Cyriacus) on its summit, and the modern part, which has grown up since the late 18th century. Visitors should not miss the Mole Vanvitelliana, the Palazzo del Governo, the Pinacoteca civica and the Galleria d'Arte moderna (historic and modern art galleries) and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale delle Marche (Marches Region National Archaeological Museum). A walk to the Passetto, ending with a long series of steps leading straight to the sea, is a must. Near Ancona are the Riviera del Conero seaside resort area, home to the Monte Conero Regional Park, and the Sanctuary of Loreto, one of Italy’s, and Europe’s most famous pilgrimage centres. |

The Rossini Opera Festival is held here in summer each year. Pesaro is near to Gradara, with the famous Castle which was the location of the famous love story between Paolo and Francesca, recounted by Dante in Canto V of “Inferno” of his “Divina Commedia”. Near Pesaro is the San Bartolo Marine Park, which can be visited by ferry from the sea or by the splendid scenic road that links the Marches region to Romagna, famous with cyclists and motorcyclists but also a favourite with walkers. In the hinterland is the Sasso Simone and Simoncello Park, a magnificent mountain area with fine trails. |
Urbinothe city, still enclosed within the polygonal ramparts built in 1507, stands on two hills divided by the hollow occupied by the Piazza della Repubblica, one to the south east, with the Cathedral and Ducal Palace, and one to the north west, with Piazza Roma. Most of the buildings date from the XV and XVI Centuries. Urbino became a dukedom under the Montefeltro dynasty. It was the birthplace of Raphael and Bramante. It is now a famous university town. The Galleria Nazionale delle Marche (National Gallery of the Marches Region) is also well worth a visit. Not far from Urbino is San Leo, a delightful, perfectly preserved medieval town; Giuseppe Balsamo, known as the Count of Cagliostro, was imprisoned in its Fort and died there in 1795. |
