Question

What are the 6 cities i should visit in italy?

Answer 1

A brief preamble...!! It's better to visit "well" 3 or 4 towns instead of  giving  just a quick look to all of them. Therefore my suggestion is to check if you have time enough for a complete visit otherwise better to limit the cities number. Nearby city's name I've quoted the days you should stay there for an accurate visit and in order of my own personal preference the cities are :

Rome (5/6 days to visit)

Florence (2/3 days to visit)

Venice (1 day to visit)

Naples (2 days to visit)

Siena (1 day to visit)

As last  (at yr option) Milan or Pise or Bologna ( 1 day to visit)

Therefore if you've time enough you can visit even more than the 6 in yr schedule (you've got all the names).

Enjoy Italy

Top 10 Cities in Italy - Italian Cities Worth a Visit

From Martha Bakerjian,

Your Guide to Italy for Visitors.

Italy has many beautiful and historic cities worth a visit. Travel to cities is best done by train as driving in Italian cities may be very difficult and the extensive Italian train system is inexpensive. Most city centers are well-suited to walking and parts of the city centers may be closed to transportation. Large Italian cities generally have good public transportation, too.

3) Florence - Firenze

Florence is one of the most important Renaissance architectural and art centers. Its Duomo and Baptistry are magnificent but crowded with tourists as is their large piazza. Florence has several interesting museums with many famous paintings and sculptures. There are also Medici palaces and gardens. Florence is in Tuscany.

4) Turin - Torino

Turin hosts the winter Olympics in February, 2006. It is a major cultural hub with excellent museums, elegant shops, and good restaurants. There are also some very nice examples of baroque architecture and historic palaces. It has many historic cafes, artisan workshops, and arcades. Turin is in the northeast of Italy, between the Po River and the foothills of the Alps.

5) Milan - Milano

Milan, one of Europe's richest cities, is known for stylish shops, galleries, and restaurants and has a faster pace of life than most Italian cities. It also has a rich artistic and cultural heritage. Its Duomo, with its beautiful marble facade, is magnificent. La Scala is one of the world's most famous opera houses. Milan is in northern Italy, about 30 miles south of the alps, and near Lakes Como and Maggiore.

6) Naples - Napoli

Naples is one of Italy's most vibrant cities. It lies on the coast south of Rome and is the most important city in southern Italy. Naples has recently undergone some renovation but still retains much of its old character. It holds many historical and artistic treasures.

7) Bologna

Bologna is known for its beauty, wealth, cuisine, and left-wing politics. Its streets are lined with beautiful arcades, making it a good place to walk even in the rain. It has one of Europe's oldest universities and a nice medieval center. There are several attractive squares, lined with buildings with nice porticoes. Bologna is the capital of the Emilia-Romagna region in northern Italy.

8) Perugia

Perugia is a very cosmopolitan city and home to two universities. It hosts a world-famous jazz festival in the summer and its University for Foreigners is a great place to learn Italian. It's a walled city on a hilltop with great views over the valley and has several important monuments and a good central square. Its history goes back to the ninth century BC. Perugia is in the center of Italy and is the capital of the region of Umbria.

9) Genoa - Genova

Genoa, on the northwest coast of Italy, is Italy's principal seaport. Genoa was a 2004 European Culture Capital; money flowed into the port city made famous by Columbus and now it's a better place than ever to visit. Genoa has a fascinating aquarium, an interesting port area, and a historic center said to be the largest medieval quarter in Europe, with a wealth of churches, palaces, and museums.

10) Padua - Padova

Padova is a university city and has some of the best nightlife in the Veneto. It has lively squares and narrow medieval streets and is home to the oldest botanical garden in Europe as well as Giotto's frescoes. Its Basilica of Sant'Antonio is one of Italy's main pilgrim shrines. Not far from Venice, it makes a less expensive base for exploring Venice for a day trip by train.

I enjoyed Rome the best.  A lot of fashion, designer shops.  The Vatican City of course.  There are a lot of fountains.  There's the famous 21 steps.  There are cobblestones on the streets.
