Interrail through Italy - a country which excites, enthuses and entices STEEPED in history and beauty in equal measure, you can easily get as lost in the cultural riches of Italy’s architecture as you can its stunning landscapes and beaches. Whether it’s the art cities of Florence, Venice and Rome, or the coastal delights of the Cinque Terre and Amalfi regions, Italy has it all. And with such a variety of scenery at its disposal, it is easy to see why the country is one of the most popular destinations for Interrail travellers. It was the variety that lured my girlfriend and I into spending our entire 14 day holiday here, rather than what was initially meant to be a multi-country trip. The difficult part is trying to decide on which cities to leave out. The great thing about Italy it that the country has a good network of Intercity and regional train services, as well as new high-speed Le Frecce trains, making it blissfully easy to navigate to most cities and towns.

Nemi, Italy, Mar 11 (efe-epa).- In the sixties, Italy lost one of the mosaics that embellished the great ships of the emperor Caligula in the sacred lake of Nemi, near Rome. The piece was found decades later in New York, being used as a tea table, and has now been recovered thanks to a series of fortunate coincidences.
The relic was presented Thursday at the Museum of the Ships of Nemi, bringing an end to an odyssey that began when it was lost in the 1960s.
The lost mosaic of Caligula dates back to the first century A.D., the period in which the controversial emperor lived, who was assassinated in the year 41 by his own praetorian guards on Palatine Hill, after less than four years in power that have been remembered throughout history.
