What is the best place to go in Italy that doesn't have a lot of tourists?

Question

I've been to Italy a lot but i just want to get some opinions!

Answer 1

I was in Torino last fall for 2 weeks and loved it. Gorgeous city with lots of museums and famous for it's chocolate! On All Saint's Day there were a lot of Italian tourists but otherwise quiet as far as tourists are concerned. One drawback to this is that it is harder to find people who speak English. One plus is that there are virtually no souvenir shops (you have to visit the tobacco shops to find a memento).

Answer 2

I'm Italian, I live in Porto Recanati, a small city near the sea, other beautiful cities in Italy are:

- Pisa

- Genova

- Roma (the capital)

- Milano

- Venezia (romantic....)

- Lecce

- Cagliari

- Portofino

- Bologna

- Firenze

Answer 3

Carpi

Mirandola

Modena

Genova (except near the Acquario and in the harbor area in general)

Bologna

Padova
