Abruzzo

Unexpectedly surprise

The tourist routes in the inner part of Abruzzo can unexpectedly surprise visitors. The towns of Atri, Campli, Castelli, Isola del Gran Sasso and Morro d'Oro are art treasures framed against the Apennines Mountains.

With regard to gastronomy, Abruzzo is a region that still keeps unaltered its traditional flavours. The local cuisine is the typical cuisine of the mountains or the coast. The wines: Montepulciano, Trebbiano and Cerasuolo have all the necessary requirements to be appreciated by the most sophisticated palate. Abruzzo is the sole Italian region that not only counts a remarkably high number of castles - over 500 -, but can also boast the presence of at least one example per every different type of fortification known.
