Indulge in your particular passion
Italy is like a vast living museum. Very few countries have to offer such a rich heritage of artistic creativity and craft. Whether visiting an archeological site, a museum of modern art, or a local craft shop, you will discover the expression of artists and skilled craftsmen throughout the ages. Nowhere on earth are the arts celebrated so joyously - from drama, to film and music, and anything that requires man's participation.
There is something for everyone, no matter what your taste.
For the Opera Lover
Italy is rich in beautiful, historic opera houses, many still serving as theaters. Opera fans should try to visit at least one opera house and enjoy a live performance while in Italy. The opera season is generally October through March or April but outdoor performances are held in the summer. Opera houses hold theater and dance performances at other times of the year, as well.
Some opera houses include:
Arena di Verona, Teatro Alla Scala, Teatro La Fenice, Teatro San Carlo, and many more. |
