If you're making a list of the most attractive places to visit when you grow up, Italy is one you shouldn't drop.

Italy lies in southern Europe. It is home to 58 million people. It's about twice the size of

Rome, in the west of the county, is the biggest city in Italy. The city is like a great museum, open to all. It has a history of more than 2,700 years. Historical sites are everywhere,such as the Colosseum (Arena of Death) (競技場), and Pantheon (萬神殿), to name just two.

Venice, a city on water, is one of the wonders of the country. This city in the north-east of Italy is built on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere in and around the city. People

there move from place to place by boat.

Art: No matter where you are in Italy, you are sure to come across paintings and statues in museums and churches. In Milan Cathedral (米蘭大教堂) alone are more than 3,000 statues.
