The coastal city of Ancona is distinguished by two parts: the historical and urban centers. Begin your journey with a visit to the Cathedral of St. Ciriaco with its white and pink marble facade.  Walk under the 18 meter high Traian’s Arch, once used to welcome ships into Rome’s largest Adriatic port. See what exhibits are showing in the 18th century Lazzaretto, then walk to the Episcopal Palace where Pope Pius II died. Visit the Podesti Gallery with works by Guercino, Titian and Del Piombo. A visit to Ancona would not be complete without exploring the Frasassi stalactite caves just outside the city, then dine on ‘stoccafisso all’anconitana’;- cod cooked with vegetable and herbs. Finish off meals with a ‘turchetto’; a strong espresso with rum and lemon peel.  Burn it all off with a walk up to the Belevedere Park offering stunning views of the city’s bay. Ancona’s port is one of the main ports where ferries leave daily for top destinations in Croatia and Greece.
