Ancona
Ancona is a picturesque city in central Italy on the Adriatic Sea. The capital of the Marche region, Ancona spreads across coastal hills, and its name comes from the Greek ankon, meaning elbow. The city is an important port with ferry connections to Croatia and Greece. Here you will find landmarks such as the triumphal Arch of Trajan and the Romanesque-Byzantine cathedral on Monte Guasco. The best time to visit is spring and early autumn, when temperatures are mild.
