`Le Marche - Italy in one region'

 

Le Marche is a region in which history, culture and agriculture have undoubtedly created a unique and quite

extraordinary world that is worth discovering, with plenty to offer and much to explore.  It has 180 km of coastline,

2 national parks, 500 piazzas, 1000 important monuments , 34 archeological sites and it is steeped in history, castles

and historical pageants staged in the old town centres, yet only recently discovered by travellers. 

 

In addition to many coastal resorts, sandy beaches and rocky coves, it has the natural beauty of unspoilt rolling

countryside, with many charming hilltop villages, lakes and mountains, rich in historical and artistic

heritage that has been so well preserved.

In this untouched and undiscovered region of Italy your experience will leave you wanting to return.

 

The  local food and wine is certainly another attraction. Le Marche is known as the larder of Italy and, with 12 DOC

wines on offer and top quality local produce, you will find a wide variety of local dishes to choose from. 

 

Here are just a few of its hidden treasures:

 

Sun seekers or water sport enthusiasts will certainly not be disappointed with many beautiful blue flag beaches and nature reserves, like the Conero
