Product Description: "I searched throughout Italy to find quintessential locations that embody romance through their setting,
architecture, and history. In each chapter, you will find places where you can enjoy a romantic stay, hold a wedding, or spend an evening dining with someone you love. You can amble through an enchanting contessa's garden, sleep in a medieval hamlet
where Dante once found refuge, or celebrate an evening with friends in the wisteria-filled courtyard of an ancient olive mill. I hope this hand-picked collection will inspire the romantic in you."

country has to offer spectacular food, idyllic country inns, quaint hill towns, and enchanted seaside villages it's no wonder that bella Italia is the romantic destination for couples. At last, here is a travel guide specifically for lovers planning a
