Top Italian Places for Your Honeymoon

Italy is one of the top choices for honeymooners. Italy invokes a sense of its rich history, and the comforts required by a traveler. Most of all, it has a sense of romance that makes Italy famous all throughout the world. Italy and romance are almost synonymous. Unlike New York known for its busy streets and entertainment, or Hawaii for its beach paradise, Italy is known for romance – romance with its history, fashion, and the people. One cannot help but think of fashion, fine Italian wine and coffee, and great architectural marvels when Italy is being talked about. As a honeymoon place, here are some top tips on where to go and how to get the most of Italy.

Rome is one of the shopping capitals of the world. You can get great items – whether luxury items or inexpensive gifts or Italian wedding favors such as wine or chocolate that comes cheaply when bought in bulk. For your honeymoon trip, get a tour of Italy’s rich cultural and architectural history by visiting the Coliseum, Pantheon and Catacombs. Take a stroll through Trastevere where the cobble stone streets will remind you of the great past of Italy.

Tuscany is one of the major art cities of Italy and where art galleries of course abound. The works of Michelangelo and Da Vinci are some of the most popular galleries that people visit, and auctions occur in Tuscany often, offering famous art collections and rare pieces as well. For art lovers, Tuscany is a haven that will even bring you closer together at this romantic escapade.

Sicily brings you to the old opulence of Rome where you can tour the great churches of Italy and enjoy the landscape as well. It is the old country romance that you will experience when you visit Sicily. The charm and the warmth of the people is endearing as well.

Do not forget to make arrangements because just like any other top tourist spot, there are peak seasons in the year where hotel room reservation may be challenging and the streets will really be crowded – not to mention that the weather can be unforgiving sometimes. So pack your bags, and have that romantic glow and get ready for that trip of a lifetime. Italy is romantic no matter when you visit it, but for honeymooners, Italy should be the top choice for sipping wine under the stars.
