Go to Rome, Venice, or Florence
 Cadogan Guide to Rome, Venice, Florence written by Dana Facaros, with Michael PaulsFrom the Cadogan Guides series. Three remarkable cities, with three remarkable stories to tell. Rome went out and conquered the world, and in its retirement came back to remake itself an ornate capital for an empire of souls. Venice built itself up from a Dark Age swamp to become a fairy city of canals and a great Republic. Florence built its empire on finance and wool, and lavished the profits on art and science, practically inventing the Renaissance. For a short break or a longer stay, whether admiring frescoes or looking for the best gelato, Cadogan's essential guide uncovers the divine, the great and the quirky in each city, where the stuff of civilization merges delightfully into the pleasures of everyday life. Inside you will find: - In-depth, practical travel advice
- Over 100 hand-picked places to stay
- Over 150 restaurants, bars and cafes
- Expert advice on food and drink, with an Italian menu reader
- Local markets, and the best of Italian shopping
