Italy is one of Europe’s top tourist destinations. Art, history, food, and culture combine to create
il bel paese, the beautiful country. The Italians spread their culture all over the world during the time of the Roman Empire, which lasted roughly 2,000 years. Along the way, they built many structures that still stand today. That means you don’t have to travel to Italy to find Roman ruins and monuments. France, England, Croatia, and Turkey are just a few of the other places you can find outstanding examples of Roman history and culture. Many are designated UNESCO World Heritage sites.
