Your tour of the things to see in Marche can begin in the capital, Ancona, the only Italian city where the sun rises and sets over the sea.
Here you must see the Duomo of San Ciriaco, overlooking the sea, the Mole Vanvitelli-ana or “Lazzaretto”, a defensive structure designed by Vanvitelli, and the Church of Santa Maria delle Piazze, with its magnificent mosaic floors.
By car from Ancona you can easily reach the splendid Riviera del Conero, an extraordi-nary territory with marvellous beaches, medieval villages and unique natural landscapes.
Along this stretch of coast, which extends from Ancona to Numana, you can visit fasci-nating towns such as Loreto, a place of worship of great importance as it is the home of the Santa Casa di Maria di Nazareth (Holy House of Mary of Nazareth), Recanati, the “natio borgo selvaggio” (native wild village) as its most illustrious citizen Giacomo Leopardi called it, or Sirolo, an elegant town overlooking the sea and known as the “Pearl of the Adriatic.”
Visiting the Riviera del Conero also means relaxing on its most beautiful beaches. Stop and sunbathe on Portonovo beach, an unspoilt bay on the slopes of Monte Conero, relax on the magnificent Due Sorelle beach, the symbol of the Riviera, or enjoy a few hours of relaxation on the enchanting wild Sassi Neri beach.
The sea and Marche are inseparable, so be sure to visit the other beautiful seaside villages.
Driving up the coast along the A14 motorway, stop off at Senigallia, a popular seaside resort with 14 km of promenade, known for its beautiful historic centre and the Summer Jamboree, a festival dedicated to the 1950s.
Continue to Fano, the “City of Vitruvius”, and immerse yourself in the ancient Roman remains, such as the Augustan Walls and the remains of the Augusteum, or take part in Ita-ly’s oldest carnival. You can then continue your journey by heading to Pesaro, the city of Gioachino Rossini, where you can relax on its 7 km beaches, and Gradara, a charming medieval town dominated by the Castle which, according to legend, was the site of the murder of Paolo and Francesca.
Other places to visit along the coastline of Marche include Civitanova Marche, an en-chanting seaside resort, San Benedetto del Tronto, the capital of the “Riviera delle Pal-me”, and the Frasassi Caves, a complex of caves, stalactites and stalagmites of great value and importance. Not far away is the Temple of Valadier, a neoclassical sanctuary built in a cave mouth.
