Book Introduction
A New Italian Small Town Tour

It has only been about 150 years since Italians began living together in one country called Italy.
Before it was unified into one country, it was divided into several kingdoms.
So Italians have a stronger sense of belonging to their region or hometown rather than to their country.
And each region has a strong tendency to preserve its own traditions, so regionalism is quite severe.
However, this regionalism can also be a driving force for experiencing a variety of emotions and interacting with locals when traveling to small cities in Italy.

Into the book
Travel to Italy is increasingly becoming a trip focused solely on small towns.
This is because the number of travelers who realize that touring only the representative cities of a country that stretches long and narrow from north to south is just scratching the surface.
Italy began as a city-state, and even today, each region retains the characteristics of a small country.


When talking about Italy, one thing that cannot be left out is the tourism industry, and the various attractions attract long-term travelers.
Italy is rich in historical sites, including Roman ruins and Renaissance art, and generates significant revenue from tourism.
Recently, Italian travelers from South Korea have also started to travel to small cities.


Even in the hot summer, what are the essentials? The image of the Italian beach, where I wore long sleeves in the morning and evening and where the warm but dry light enveloped me, is vividly conveyed to my eyes.
A leisurely trip to a small town in Italy will bring you new joys.


The central Tuscany region retains its medieval and Renaissance appearance.
While it's easy to have fun under clear skies and pristine waters, sometimes it's also a great way to travel to appreciate the country's cultural uniqueness.
In coastal cities, you can feel the Mediterranean atmosphere in full force.
