Some of its regions attract more tourists than other countries This beautiful country is distinguished by its insuperable and wonderful variety of tourist attractions to be off er and for its unique style, a world of surprise to discover this country seems to possess to a greater extent than almost any other. Italy’s boot-leg shape and its scores of islands give it a disproportionate amount of coastline. The famous Italian weather, with warm sunny days for the greatest part of the year, certainly make the country a magic land. It’s diffi cult, almost anywhere in Italy, to fi nd oneself very far away from some lovely beach; the more famous seaside are the chic Italian Riviera, the breathtaking Amalfi coast, Visiting Italy Visiting stunning Capri, Sicily and Sardinia. Italy has some of the most dramatic and beautiful coastline and beaches in the world, and some of the most dramatic and beautiful people on them. And a beach holiday in Italy A beach holiday in Italy means much more than sea and sun: even more time to enjoy the ubiquitously good cuisine and wine taste, pleasant romantic evening walks. Tuscany is to many their favourite region; the rolling landscape scattered with olive trees, vines and ancient buildings being the fi rst image of Italy that comes to most people’s minds. There are very few settlements here that are not blessed with great natural and architectural attraction. Florence, the capital of this region, is the symbol of the Renaissance art and of the architectural heaven. No one should leave without visiting at least its cathedral (the Duomo), the Uffi zi art museum, and Michelangelo’s David, or tasting a succulent Bistecca Fiorentina with a glass of Chianti. Venice, simply stands out of all even in a country with such cultural wealth. It is one of the most ro- mantic places in the world, with fabulous buildings crowded into a series of little islands, the water literally lapping their doorsteps, boats replacing cars, trucks, taxis and buses, making it deserving of its appellation as “the Serenissima”. getting lost between the narrow street of the city and tasting a glass of the local “Fragolino” a strawberry wine”. You don’t have to visit any sights or do anything in Venice, because you are carried away by its unique atmosphere to become enchanted. Rome is steeped in history and atmosphere. Almost a thousand years of history of Rome as the largest and richest city in the West, and almost two thousand years of history of Rome which has been elected as the most important city for the Catholic church, have left most important historical places such as the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain and the Vatican City’s St Peter’s Basilica and Miche- langelo’s Sistine Chapel. You’ll enjoy this modern, vibrant city, however, as much for the colourful markets, elegant shopping, exciting nightlife, dazzling ice creams, chilled white wine and fantastic cuisine that you can enjoy here. The Italian islands of Sardinia and Sicily each merit at least their own holidays, Sardinia justly clai- ming that it is “almost a continent”. They totally distinguish themeself from one to the other but they both boast simply stunning coastlines, gorgeous beaches, magnifi cent mountains, millennium of fascinating history and unimaginable gastronomic richness. Italy And for an idea of the range that Italy off ers, consider the Alpine slopes, verdant and restful in the summer, ideal for a mountain walks, and, in winter, with dazzlingly white powder refl ecting the bright sun in a blue sky; a dream for those who enjoy winter sports. But don’t let this variety and choice make you spend too much time selecting an Italian desti- nation: you’ll love wherever you go. LANGUAGE – the italian is the offi cial language, but there are still many long history, which every year attracts large crowds of fans in the Mon- popular local dialects and in some areas you speak German, French, za roadtrack. Slovenian, Albanian, Catalan. WHAT TO EAT - Italy is worth a visit if only It’s important to visit Italy also CURRENCY – Euros in terms of food and wine, given the extraordinary quality and variety of its table.

    Icaro: to Be Fooled by the Beauty of Your Dreams

    Reckless Wines from Rome “We fell in love with a vineyard, so beautiful to make us reckless” And so, without reasoning, we embraced a journey that led us to challenge some rules, get rid of a some fears and take back some beauty. Near Rome, in the Roman Castles area, we discover volcanic lands, boldly suited for the vineyard and yet voiceless. We focus on the grapes of a single vineyard near Velletri, surrounded by a 250 hectares natural monument of wild forest, huge oaks, maples and cyclamen. Nero Buono, Malvasia, Trebbiano and a bit of Moscato. Organic vineyard with the use only of copper and sulfur. Looking west you can spy the sea and in the windy days you can feel the salt. Egidio and Paola are the two owners and farmers. They take care of the land, the vineyard and the fruit-trees, all alone. We help them, observing and studying each movement. We work together, we feel good. We take courage. I CA RO “I Castelli Romani” Our ambitions are all in this land. We want to take back the grapes and the wines. Give them new life, new vitality, new expression. Give rise to a renaissance of the Roman Castles. In the wine-house, in Genzano, it is only spontaneous fermentation. Zero or very little So2, no filtration, no control of temperatures. No enologist or long experience yet with clear ideas and the will to make an expressive, natural, popolar, anti- elite wine for the people. Four fellows from Rome, two elderly farmers and the dream to start a revolution in the Roman Castles.

Trees are sparse and low scrub is the predominant vegetation. – It’s part of the national parks system of Italy, in 2002 the island was converted to a wildlife and marine preserve. – In 1885 the island became a Lazaretto and an agricultural penal colony (till 1998). About 100 families of Sardinian farmers and Genoese fishermen who lived on Asinara were obliged to move to Sardinia, where they founded the village of Stintino. Asino dell’Asinara (Asinara Donkey) Origins: - Uncertain but oral records report the presence of white donkeys on the island since the end of XIX century. - the appearance of the white coat in more recent times is probably due to a random mutation that spread to all the population. Morphology: it is small and the size is similar to the Sardinian donkey; the most important difference is the white coat, that probably belongs to a form of incomplete albinism .

It currently accounts for I55% of the world’s vine-growing areas, 60% of wine production and 70% of exports. In this very special sector of agriculture, technology and science play fundamental roles in all phases of activity, from the start of the vine-growing season, through the ripening of the grapes, to the bottling of the wine. The quality of the wine produced depends on many parameters, including the soil characteristics in the area, the weather and growth conditions during the season, the ability to monitor and control vine diseases, the degree of maturity of the grapes at harvest time, their grade, colour, organic acids, etc. during fermentation and, finally, the wine production techniques employed. In general, however, European vineyard managers still have little access to technical means or reliable systems to guide them in their decision-making. Precision Farming in the Frascati area Space technologies, particularly those associated with Earth Observation (EO), can help the wine-growing community in a number of technical areas. One of several initiatives promoting the use of EO in the wine sector has been ‘Bacchus’, a Research and ESA/ESRIN lies in the middle of the Frascati DOC wine-growing Technological Development project started in 2003 (to be completed in 2005), funded by region, southeast of Rome.

    93 Fari Dismessi. Dall'abbandono Alla

    Annali del Turismo, V, 2016, n.1 Edizioni Geoprogress FARI DISMESSI. DALL’ABBANDONO ALLA RIGENERAZIONE Antonietta Ivona Abstract Lighthouses decommissioned. From abandonment to regeneration. - The Italian legislation on cultural heritage introduced, a few years ago, the concept of enhancement and enjoyment of cultural heritage through the outsourcing of cultural assistance and hospitality services for the public. Particularly, the national Project "Valore Paese" of the Agenzia del Demanio is dedicated to lighthouses and it intends to encourage the promotion of the Italian public real estate through the synergy between the sectors of tourism, art and culture, economic and territorial cohesion. In this sense, the recovery of public assets owned by the State and local authorities has the possibility to be considered not only in terms of cost to the community, but also as a significant lever for territorial and social development, in a logic of public- private partnership. 1. I fari nel tempo Opere di ingegneria umana, ammantate di miti e leggende, i fari sono parte della storia della navigazione. Dai bagliori dei primi fuochi accesi sulle torri di avvistamento fino ai recenti dibattiti sul futuro della rete dei fari, essi hanno da sempre rappresentato anche luoghi identitari. I primi fari che la storia conosce non erano altro che falò di legna accatastata situati nei luoghi più pericolosi per segnalare la rotta ai naviganti. “I primi fuochi, che dovevano restare accesi tutta la notte, richiedevano continua cura: occorreva combustibile, sapienza tecnica, presenza costante dell’uomo” (Mariotti, 2013, p. 10). Con l’evolversi della navigazione commerciale, occorse sostituire i falò con strumenti di segnalazione più sicuri e, quindi, più potenti da ubicare nei porti lungo le nuove rotte commerciali.

    Maritime Boundaries Delimitation, Management and Dispute Resolution

    MARITIME BOUNDARIES DELIMITATION, MANAGEMENT AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION DELIMITATION OF THE MOZAMBIQUE MARITIME BOUNDARIES WITH NEIGHBOURING STATES (INCLUDING THE EXTENDED CONTINENTAL SHELF) AND THE MANAGEMENT OF OCEAN ISSUES ELÍSIO BENEDITO JAMINE The United Nations and Nippon Fellowship Programme 2006-2007 Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea Office of Legal Affairs United Nations, NY, USA ABSTRACT The Law of the Sea Convention (LOSC) establishes the jurisdictional regimes under which a coastal State can claim, manage, and utilize its ocean resources. With an increasing recognition of the need to administer competing resource use interests in the ocean and seabed, and the requirement to ensure sustainable exploitation of these resources, Mozambique has an ambitious program for the establishment of its maritime boundaries, including the outer limits of its extended Continental Shelf (CS). Mozambique faces the problem of lack of delimitation and negotiation of the maritime boundaries, connected to the lack of a comprehensive framework for management of maritime issues, lack of appropriate technology to quantify, qualify, and exploit the resources that lie in the sea, and lack of means by which to exercise and guarantee its sovereign rights. These problems obstruct the Mozambican State, as a sovereign subject of international law of the sea (LOS), from being able to take independent initiatives in pursuit of her internal and external policy objectives. The lack of delimitation of the maritime boundaries appears as a constraint for the State. Mozambique is not in a position to exercising all her rights and duties in accordance with LOSC with respect to jurisdiction and the exercise of sovereignty in these spaces.

Its olive oil, chestnuts, hazelnuts, freshwater fish, black truffles, seafood, wild mushrooms, game, pork products, lamb, and sheep cheeses are among the best you’ll find anywhere in Italy. … www.elifanttours.com / [email protected] / +1-347-868-6345 Etruscan Places OF NORTHERN LAZIO AND Join us for an exciting tour to the Etruscan places just north of Rome. The tour covers the territory between Rome’s northern edge and Orvieto, just inside the Umbrian border, 75 miles to the north. It’s a sort of “flyover” country, ignored by tourists in their dash north to Tuscany. All the more reason to stop and explore this land of volcanic lakes, sandy beaches, rugged hills, thermal springs, Roman roads, and medieval hill towns. Its olive oil, chestnuts, hazelnuts, freshwater fish, mushrooms, game, pork products, lamb, and sheep cheeses rival any in Italy. Long before the Romans, sophisticated native peoples were living in cities and building extravagant cemeteries (“cities of the dead”). The best known and most influential were called Etruscans, but we’ll meet others too, such as the forgotten Faliscans. Our itinerary offers plenty of archaeo-culinary interest in both isolated (and very picturesque) sites and the medieval towns that inherited the ancient legacy. That legacy continues today, remarkably unspoiled. The tour covers the southern Etruscan territory In October, when we visit, the wild beauty of the natural landscape will be enhanced between Rome and the southern borders of Tuscany and Umbria.
