Viterbo Sotterranea is a labyrinth of underground passageways and caves under the city of Viterbo. It is believed to date as far back as the Etruscan era (900 BCE - 100 BCE). The tunnels were expanded during the medieval period and were used for covert travel and strategic movement around the city.
Palazzo Strozzi is one of Florence’s great Renaissance residences. Powerful banker Filippo Strozzi the Elder commissioned the palace in the late 1400s, ordering the demolition of a large number of pre-existing buildings in the process.
The Palazzo Strozzi we see today is a free-standing and beautifully proportioned structure that trumps the Medici Palace of Strozzi’s business and political rivals, the Medici family. The Strozzi family eventually relinquished the property during the fascist period, and the City of Florence has been managing it since 1999.
Visitors now come to see some of the most exciting exhibitions held in Italy each year.
Of Rome's seven hills, the Palatine is the one that's right in the heart of the ancient city. It overlooks the Roman Forum on one side and the Circus Maximus on the other. Some of the finest ancient homes were located here, including the emperor's – 'Palatine' is actually where the modern word 'palace' comes from!
