			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_en.gif" border=0> <a href="http://www.italiantourism.com/videoregioniindice.html" target="_blank">Liguria</a> is a region overlooking the sea, almost surrounded by mountains and with a luxurious vegetation. Its origines are very ancient, it preserves paleolitics remains, such as the Toirano Grotte, located on the western riviera. In recent times Ligura has been home for many poets, such as Byron and Shelley who died in the Gulf of La Spezia, that&#8217;s why is commonly known as The Poets Gulf. Portovenere is a charming village made of coloured houses one clinging to the other overlooking the beautiful sea. Dominated by the sixteenth-century Castle and the Church of Saint Peter. Nearby,  La Spezia with its lovely gardens along the sea promenade. Portofino,  Portus Delfini mentioned by Plinio, a millenary village that today has become a destination chose by the international jet sets.  Some elegant beach resorts, in Rapallo, for instance, or Santa Margherita, Camogli  and Alassio, just to mention a few. Cinque Terre with its uncontaminated nature, formed by 5 ancient villages embedded in the cliff above the sea. Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia with amazing scenaries and routs such as the Via dell&#8217;Amore to be explored only by walk,  from Manarola to Riomaggiore.  San Remo, where the famous Music Festival is held and its  floriculture. Ventimiglia located between Liguria and French Provence. Savona with the imposing Priamar Fortess where Giuseppe Mazzini was confined. Imperia and finally Genova, the capital of Liguria which boasts elegant palaces and nobiliar villas. As Francesco Petrarca defined it, “The Lady of the Sea”. The geografic nature of Liguria, between the sea and the mountains, is present in the cusine as well.  With recipies such as pesto souce with trenette, superb olive oil, anchovies and typical sweets and wine.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border=0> La <a href="http://www.italiantourism.com/videoregioniindice.html" target="_blank">Liguria</a> è una regione che si affaccia sul mare da un lato e dall&#8217;altro è circondata da montagne con una vegetazione lussureggiante. Le sue origini sono molto antiche, conserva resti paleolitici come le Grotte di Toirano, situate sulla riviera di ponente. In tempi recenti è stata dimora di vari poeti come Byron o Shelley, che per l&#8217;appunto è morto nel Golfo della Spezia, motivo per il quale il golfo è conosciuto anche come Il Golfo Dei Poeti. Portovenere è un delizioso paese costituito da case colorate l&#8217;una attaccata all&#8217;altra di fronte al mare con affianco il Castello e la Chiesa di San Pietro. Poco distante si trova La Spezia con i sontuosi e ben curati giardini lungo la passeggiata a mare. Portofino, Portus Delfini così definito da Plinio, è un paese millenario che oggi è diventato meta ambita dal jet-set internazionale. Alcuni tra i più eleganti stabilimenti balneari si trovano a Rapallo, a Santa Margherita, Camogli ed Alassio per citarne alcuni. Altra meraviglia sono le 5 Terre che consistono in 5 piccoli villaggi lungo la costa immersi in una natura incontaminata incastonati nelle rocce. Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia offrono scenari mozzafiato come il sentiero detto La Via Dell&#8217;Amore che va da Manarola a Riomaggiore. San Remo, altra città nota per il Festival Della Musica e la floricoltura. Ventimiglia, posta tra Liguria e la Provenza francese. Savona con la sua imponente Fortezza Priamar in cui fu confinato Giuseppe Mazzini. Imperia ed infine Genova, il capoluogo, che vanta eleganti palazzi nobiliari e ville favolose. Definita da Petrarca “La Signora del Mare”. La  natura geografica della regione sita fra le montagne e il mare si sente anche nella cucina con i suoi sapori genuini e particolari come il pesto usato per condire le trenette, l&#8217;olio, le acciughe, i dolci tipici e il vino.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Amalfi: arte, storia, natura e tradizioni]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_en.gif" border="0" alt="" /> As soon as the visitor gets to Amalfi is perfectly aware of the important role that the sea has played in the history of the city, and that still persists. This is demonstrated by the fact that its port is in correspondence of the city center. From the port, through small streets you can reach the heart of Amalfi where the Duomo is located. It was dedicated to Saint Andrew and its foundations dated back the tenth century. There is a large and impressive stair that leads to the structure which faces the Saint Andrew Square. Over the centuries the Duomo suffered so many rearrangements that the internal decorations date back to the eighteenth century, while the sumptuous bronze doors are genuine. From the Duomo you can access to the Basilica of the Holy Crucifix which was built in the sixth century on an early Christian temple. Today the remains of the temple have been brought to light infact you can admire the columns that in the past supported the central nave. From here you can reach the Saint Andrew&#8217;s Crypt which contains his remains arrived from Patrasso during the 4th Crusade. Continuing the path there is the Cloister of Paradise, an enchanting arabian construction of the thirteenth century. Finally, it is worth visiting the ancient arsenal of the Republic of Amalfi which is the only surviving example of medieval shipyard. The Museum is located in the Flavio Gioia Square along the sea promenade of Amalfi from where can be seen distinctly the Tower of San Francesco built in order to defend the city from the pirate raids.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border="0" alt="" /> Quando si arriva ad Amalfi si percepisce da subito l&#8217;importanza che il mare ha avuto nella storia di questa città e che ancora persiste. Lo dimostra il fatto che il suo porto è in corrispondenza del centro città. Dal porto, imboccando vicoli e viuzze si giunge al cuore di Amalfi dove si trova il Duomo, dedicato a Sant&#8217;Andrea le cui fondamenta risalgono al decimo secolo. Una grande e suggestiva scalinata porta all&#8217;edificio che dà sull&#8217;omonima piazza. Nel corso dei secoli ha subito interventi più volte tanto che le decorazioni interne risalgono al settecento, mentre le sontuose porte di bronzo sono originali. Dal Duomo si accede alla Basilica del Santissimo Crocifisso edificata nel sesto secolo su di un tempio paleocristiano. Oggi sono stati riportati alla luce i resti dell&#8217;antico tempio e si possono ammirare le colonne che sostenevano la navata centrale. Proprio da qui si accede alla Cripta di Sant&#8217;Andrea le cui spoglie giunsero qui da Patrasso durante la quarta crociata. Continuando il percorso si incontra il Chiostro del Paradiso, una splendida costruzione arabeggiante risalente al XIII secolo. Per finire merita una visita l&#8217;antico Arsenale della Repubblica di Amalfi che rappresenta l&#8217;unico esempio esistente di cantiere nautico medievale proprio in Piazza Flavio Gioia sul lungo mare di Amalfi da dove si scorge distintamente la Torre di San Francesco costruita per difendere la città dalle incursioni dei pirati.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Benvenuti nel Lazio]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_en.gif" border=0><br />
 Once known as Latium, Lazio is known by tourists as the region of Rome, but there is much, much more to Lazio than just Rome! Mountains, beaches, Renaissance papal villas, wineries, Etruscan ruins, health spas e secluded Franciscan hermitages, this Region has everything you&#8217;ve been looking for. Start with a day in the Castelli Romani, right on Rome&#8217;s doorstep &#8211; you can absorb 2000 years of history without staying in the city. Just south of there, on the way to Naples, is the world-class spa town of Fiuggi, surrounded by a host of picturesque hill towns like the one featured in the movie For Rosanne. Or head east to Rieti, where you can visit the tiny monasteries St. Francis built, birthplace of the nativity scene and the Christmas tree. You can even sleep at a couple of them, if you like, or try some skiing in the beautiful mountains that loom overhead.<br />
North of the city, within an hour&#8217;s easy drive from Fiumicino Airport (also called Leonardo da Vinci), is the former homeland of the mysterious Etruscans, with their delightfully painted underground tombs, and their stone tumuli, usually located in idyllic forests or deserted valleys. No matter whether you go north or south along the Latium coast, you will find wonderful sandy beaches and rocky coves for all tastes, delightful resort towns like Capalbio and San Felice Circeo, Grecian fishing villages like Sperlonga, or ancient strongholds like Gaeta. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border=0><br />
Anticamente conosciuta come &#8220;Latium&#8221;, la regione Lazio è conosciuta dai turisti solo per la città di Roma, ma c&#8217;è molto, molto di più di questo!<br />
Monti, spiagge, palazzi papali rinascimentali, enoteche, rovine estrusche, terme e solitari eremi francescani. Questa regione racchiude tutto quello che si può desiderare di visitare. Si può iniziare con una giornata ai Castelli Romani, proprio alle porte di Roma, per assorbire 2000 anni di storia anche fuori dalla città. Poco più a sud, sulla strada per Napoli, si trovano le rinomate Terme di Fiuggi, circondate da pittoreschi villaggi collinari, come quello ripreso nel film &#8220;For Rosanne&#8221;. Verso est si trova Rieti, con i piccoli monasteri francescani, luoghi in cui prese origine la scena della natività cristiana e l&#8217;albero di natale. Molti di essi offrono ospitalità ai turisti di passaggio. Oppure si può raggiungere le montagne che sovrastano il paesaggio e trascorrere un po&#8217; di tempo sulle piste da sci.<br />
A nord di Roma, a circa un&#8217;ora di distanza dall&#8217;Aeroporto di Fiumicino (chiamato anche Leonardo da Vinci), c&#8217;è l&#8217;antica patria dei misteriosi etruschi, dove si possono visitare le tombe sotterranee meravigliosamente decorate e le pietre tumulo, di solito posizionate all&#8217;interno di idilliache foreste o in valli desertiche.<br />
Non importa se si va a sud o a nord invece, lungo le coste laziali: ovunque si trovano fantastiche spiagge e insenature rocciose per tutti i gusti, deliziosi centri come Capalbio e San Felice Circeo, villaggi di pescatori come Sperlonga o antiche roccaforti come Gaeta.</p>

In Umbria you learn to know the meaning of beauty. Umbria is the heart of Italy, but not simply for its geographical position. The region’s wealth of natural and artistic wonders seems almost inexhaustible. Travelling the roads of Umbria is a journey full of surprises, continuously suspended between the signs of a well-preserved past and a vocation for the future that is entirely new, bringing to light a region that is live and exquisitely beautiful. Umbria today, reinventing itself fashionable but without overdoing it, has much to offer visitors: sport, culture, museums, epicurean delights, healing waters, and musical events of international renown.<br />
At the end of the journey, one thing is certain: Umbria has a true vocation for beauty. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border=0><br />
In Umbria si impara il vero significato di &#8220;bellezza&#8221;. Umbria è il cuore dell&#8217;Italia, non solo semplicemente per la sua posizione geografica. Il numero di capolavori naturali ed artistici della Regione sembrano semplicemente inesauribili. Il viaggio lungo le vie dell&#8217;Umbria è denso di sorprese, continuamente sospesa tra i segni di un passato ben preservato e la vocazione al futuro da poco acquisita, portando alla luce una Regione che è viva e meravigliosamente bella. L&#8217;Umbria di oggi, che si reinventa affascinante ma discreta, ha molto da offrire ai visitatori: sport, cultura, musei, delizie epicuree, acque termali ed eventi musicali di risonanza internazionale.<br />
Alla fine del viaggio, una cosa è certa: l&#8217;Umbria ha una vera vocazione per il bello.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Il Piccolo Museo San Paolo]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_en.gif" border=0><br />
The “Piccolo Museo San Paolo” was created in the 1970s by Monsignor Francesco Gangemi, parist priest of the parish of San Paolo della Rotonda. A cultured priest, collector of fine art, author of publications, theatre texts and scholar in ancient Greek and Latin.<br />
Transformed into a foundation with official recognition in 1984, his collection today is housed in buildings opposite the church of San Paolo and is waiting for a permanent home.The works exhibited, which represent great historical and artistic importance, have been gathered together over sixty years by Francesco Gangemi himself, with great love for art and extraordinary tenacity in his search.  The collection, increased over the years thanks to donated works, is extremely diverse both for the artists, not only Calabrian and Southern Italian, but also for the styles exhibited in which you can find: Icons, Silver, Sculpture, Ivory and Paintings. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border=0><br />
Il Piccolo Museo San Paolo nasce negli anni ’70 per volontà di Monsignor Francesco Gangemi, parroco della Parrocchia di San Paolo della Rotonda, sacerdote colto, fine collezionista di opere d’arte, autore di pubblicazioni, testi teatrali, fine conoscitore del greco antico e del latino. Trasformatosi in Fondazione con riconoscimento giuridico ufficiale nel 1984, la sua collezione oggi è ospitata nei locali adiacenti alla chiesa di San Paolo e attende di essere collocata in una sede definitiva. Le opere esposte, di gran pregio storico e artistico, sono state raccolte in un arco di tempo di oltre sessant’anni dallo stesso Francesco Gangemi, con grande amore per l&#8217;arte e tenacia straordinaria nella ricerca. La collezione, incrementata negli anni da donazioni acquisti, risulta del resto estremamente eterogenea sia per gli artisti, non solo calabresi e meridionali, sia per la natura stessa dei generi esposti, si possono infatti individuare: Icone, Argenti, Sculture, Avori e Dipinti.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_en.gif" border=0><br />
We would like to introduce you to the charm of the &#8220;Veneto: from the earth to the sky&#8221; and the excellence of this territory, the most welcoming region in Italy and the first in terms of tourism.<br />
Art cities, sea, mountains, parks, lakes and spas may be enough for a dream vacation &#8230; but this region also has other surprises to be discovered.<br />
For example, there are five places in the Veneto region that have won prestigious acknowledgement from UNESCO and are included in the list of the World Heritage Sites. These include Venice and its lagoon, Verona, the Botanical Gardens of Padua, Vicenza, the Palladian Villas of the Veneto and the Dolomites. The Dolomites were the last to receive acknowledgement on June 26th 2009.<br />
There are other &#8220;gems of beauty&#8221; to be found in this region such as our fairy-tale like scenery, rolling hills, history and tradition, churches, fortified villages, frescoed palaces, villas, piazzas and arcades, and a countless number of pieces of art that are waiting for you to discover them.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border=0><br />
Ecco a voi il fascino del &#8220;Veneto. Tra la terra e il cielo&#8221;, le eccellenze di questo territorio, la regione più accogliente d&#8217;Italia, prima assoluta in termini di presenze turistiche. Città d&#8217;arte, mare, montagna, parchi, laghi e terme potrebbero bastare per una vacanza da sogno&#8230; E invece il Veneto riserva tante altre sorprese.<br />
Pochi sanno, per esempio, che sono cinque i luoghi del Veneto insigniti del prestigioso riconoscimento UNESCO e iscritti nella lista dei siti Patrimonio dell&#8217;Umanità: Venezia e la sua laguna, Verona, l&#8217;Orto Botanico di Padova, Vicenza e le ville palladiane del Veneto e per ultime le Dolomiti (il 26 giugno 2009).<br />
In questo territorio si incontrano altre piccole e grandi &#8220;perle di bellezza&#8221;: paesaggi da sogno, dolci colline, atmosfere pregne di storia e tradizione, chiesette solitarie, borghi fortificati, palazzi affrescati, ville signorili, piazze e portici e un&#8217;infinità di opere d&#8217;arte che aspettano solo di essere scoperte.</p>

In the middle of the uncontaminated, green valley of the Tammaro river surrounded by the Matese mountains, Sepino is also a repository of thousands of years of glory, which make it a perfect destination for the lovers of nature and history. Its history is connected to that of the Matese mountain and the wealth of waters, still used today for the Sepinia mineral water and spa treatment, and in the vicinity one of the best preserved dinosaurs in Europe was found.</p>

Proprio nel mezzo della verde ed incontaminata valle del fiume Tammaro, circondata dai monti del Matese, Sepino è depositaria di millenni di storia gloriosa, che ne fa meta perfetta per gli appassionati della natura e della storia. La sua storia è strettamente legata alle montagne dalle quali scaturisce una pregiata sorgente di acque minerali, ancora oggi utilizzata per l&#8217;imbottigliamento e per le cure termali. Nelle sue vicinanze sono stati rinvenuti i più antichi resti di dinosauri in Europa.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_en.gif" border=0> The  Valdostane castles confirm a particularly wealthy feudal history that offers a steady flow of picturesque history: medieval buildings were often built and raised on previous highland fortresses from Roman times; military bulwarks and noble residences, points of control along the compulsory passes (Bard Fortress and Fénis Castle are renowned), perimeters and facades with different styles, the weaponry of the visitable interiors, as well as the cultural interests, to impress you in a magical atmosphere, almost like &#8220;doors back in time&#8221; or&#8230; dimensional passages into your imagination. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border=0> I  castelli valdostani sono testimonianze di una storia feudale particolarmente ricca e di una continuità storica suggestiva: spesso le costruzioni medioevali si sono appoggiate ed innalzate su precedenti alture fortificate d’epoca romana; baluardi militari e dimore di signori, punti di controllo lungo passaggi obbligati (sono celebri il Forte di Bard e il castello di Fénis), perimetri e facciate di stili diversi, armature di interni visitabili, oltre che per interesse culturale, per lasciarsi permeare da atmosfere magiche, quasi &#8220;porte nel tempo&#8221; o&#8230; varchi dimensionali per l’immaginazione.</p>

Tears of lava, limestone plains swept by the wind, sunny lands the colour of bronze: one by one the islands decorate the Sicilian coast like a string of pearls on the neck of a beautiful woman.<br />
The uncontested mistresses of the sea and its secrets, Levanzo, Favignana, and Marettimo, form the archipelago of the Egadi in the sea off Trapani. Here nature still dictates. Its rhythms, and travellers can let themselves be enchanted by the magic spell of the fishermen and farmers who inhabit these isles, the last custodians of the ancient Mediterranean traditions. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.case-homes.com/images/flag_it.gif" border=0><br />
Lacrime laviche, piane calcaree battute dal vento, lande assolate colore del bronzo:ognuna delle isole orna il litorale siciliano come un filo di perle orna il collo di una bella donna. Signore incontrastate del mare e dei suoi segreti le isole di Levanzo, Favignana e Marettimo:l’arcipelago delle Egadi nel mare di Trapani. Qui, insomma, è ancora la natura che detta i suoi ritmi e al viaggiatore non resta che lasciarsi ammaliare dalle magiche atmosfere dei pescatori e degli agricoltori isolani, ultimi custodi di antiche tradizioni mediterranee.</p>
