In this video we hear about the flight of the angel, an extreme sport, and one of the most important tourist attractions of Basilicata. This flight, which takes place about four hundred meters above ground, is one of the highest in Europe.

In this video we get a peek at the streets of Rome, accompanied by the nostalgic melody of "Romagna mia" (a song dedicated to the Region of Emilia Romagna, played here by a street musician in Rome). Come and discover the eternal city!

Milena is at the port of Maratea and she tells us about the beauty of that evocative place. The people of Maratea happily come here, even to just have a walk in the winter.

Francesca is in Rome and she looking for a way of getting to the Janiculum. She asks a guy, who gives her directions and tells her of some ways she could get there. At the end, they decide to get a coffee together.

Francesca and her new friend are now in the bar. Let's go and see what's on the menu!

The first part of a trip to Castel Gandolfo, the Roman city famous for having been the traditional summer residence for generations of popes, but also for its beautiful lake.

In this video, Irene talks about the Rialto Bridge, the most famous and important of the bridges that cross the Grand Canal in Venice.

At last, we arrive at the lake. We ask to rent a sunbed in order to relax and we lie in the sun to rest, but only after having put on some suntan lotion.

During the hottest hours of the day, the sun beats down, and seeing that we don't have an umbrella, we have to have something refreshing to drink or maybe jump in the water.

After spending the morning sun bathing, a slight feeling of hunger sets in. There are a lot of choices: pizza, first and second courses. But, to stay on the light side, fruit salad with a bit of ice cream seems like the best choice.

Piazza del Popolo is one of Rome's most famous squares. It is at the foot of the Pincio Park. Three churches front on the piazza, two of which are famously known as the twins.

Mondello is where the people of Palermo go to the beach. Adriano tells us about how the place came to be, and about a gastronomical specialty called the arancina.

Adriano visits Palermo's Monte Pellegrino, taking in the cypress and wild fennel perfumed air and enjoying the incredible panorama.

Giuliano talks about why this year he chose to go to a lake for his vacation.

Anna talks to us about a part of Rome she loves: the Jewish Ghetto, the neighborhood where, in the 16th century, the Jews of Rome were forced to live, and which is now famous for its restaurants, bars, and nightlife.

Adriano has left his native Palermo and is now living in Dublin. He takes us to his favorite Italian restaurant in Dublin's downtown area.

Adriano places his order at Dublin's Pinocchio restaurant, and it looks delicious.

Here we go with a new series with Anna and Marika. Each video will feature an oral quiz — just like in actual Italian schools — about a region of Italy. A separate cooking video will feature a recipe from that region. We start in the "heel of the boot": Puglia.

Anna gets grilled on Sicily by Marika. Oral quizzes are very frequently used in Italian schools. Grading is done on a scale from 1-10 for primary and secondary schools, and from 1-30 at the university level.

Anna is quizzed on Sardinia and can easily identify the capital and its major cities, its nuraghes (characteristic low towers), its cantu a tenore (traditional singing), but comes up short on providing the name of a typical Sardinian dish.

It's time to talk about Calabria, a southern region with both sea and mountains. Let's hope Anna did some studying.

Let's see if Anna has studied one of the northernmost regions of Italy. It's a border region and as such, has some peculiarities.

Arianna shows us the outside market near San Lorenzo, and we discover where the train station got its long name Santa Maria Novella. Arianna also gives us some important information about how to get to and from the airports of Pisa and Florence.

Arianna and Simone show us the historic center of this city on Sicily's west coast. Points of interest include its Casbah, where ceramic tile artworks tell of the city's Arab history, an unusual central-plan church; and the Satyr Museum.
