Italy
When talking about sophistication and elegance, Italy will easily pop into one's mind. Being the 23rd most developed country in the world, it is a constant destination for foreigners. As it has a very stable economy, it is paradise to foreign investors. But just the same, Italy is also a haven for tourists.
Basically, Italy preserved the ruins of the ancient civilization as these are all integral part of their development as country and as a nation. Until the present, the Coliseum in Rome where most bloody duels of gladiators occurred is still erected. The Leaning Tower of Pisa in Tuscan and the Pantheon also live on. It has been three of the most visited spots in the country. Hotels in Italy like the Hotel Piazza di Spagna and the Hotel Pantheon are just nearby.
As the country values aesthetics so much, museums naturally abound. In these edifices, some of the works of the most renowned artists like Michelangelo, Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Leonardo da Vinci are safeguarded.
For most tourists, an Italy trip will not be complete without stopping by the romantic and unique city of Venice. Most famous as the 'Floating City', foreigners and locals alike may enjoy gondola and boat rides to fully explore the city. After all, it is hailed as one of the most distinctive features of Italy.
Mentioned are just few of the thousand tourist spots in Italy. There are lots of other places to be discovered that a few days of staying will not be enough. Lodging is not a problem, anyway. There are lots of affordable Italy hotels.
