Italy consists of a mountainous peninsula in southern Europe extending into the Mediterranean Sea and includes the islands of Sicily, Sardinia, and about 70 other smaller islands. The Alps form Italy's border with France, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia. Most of Italy has warm, dry summers and mild winters, with northern Italy experiencing colder, wetter winters. There are some notable active volcanoes: Vesuvius (near Naples), Etna (on Sicily), and Stromboli (north of Sicily). Pasta, one of the world's most consumed foods, was invented in Italy. Each Italian consumes more than 25 kilograms of pasta in just one year. Needless to say, there are not many leftovers in an Italian family's refrigerator. Italians are very proud of their cuisine and rightly so, for their food is renowned throughout the world. Italians trace their gastronomic heritage to Romans, Greeks, Etruscans and other Mediterranean peoples who elaborated the methods of raising, refining and preserving foods. Italian cooking is still very regional with the different towns and regions having their own traditions and specialties. Italy has many beautiful and historic cities worth a visit. Travel to cities is best done by car; you can find car rental companies at all larger airports in the country. Italian cities, which are especially worth a visit, are: Rome, Venice, Florence, Milan, Naples, Verona, Turin, Bologna, Perugia and Genoa. The capital city is Rome, the Eternal City. It's the famed city of the Seven Hills, La Dolce Vita, the Vatican City and Three Coins in the Fountain. The Historic Center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Milan is considered the fashion capital of the world by designers and fashionistas alike. Such designers as Armani, Versace and Gucci all launch clothes from Milan at some point during their business year.
