Italy is waiting for tourists from June 3! – main image

From Monday, May 18, Italy is back to normal, of course keeping masks, gloves and a safe distance from other people.

From the beginning of the week, all bars, restaurants, shops and beauty salons may be open. Museums are resuming their work. You can leave the house without restrictions, meet family and friends, and even attend mass.

Regional authorities decide

The scope of the freedoms is decided by the authorities of individual regions, depending on the epidemiological situation. It's not bad in Veneto, where tourist facilities, swimming pools, gyms and beaches have been allowed to resume operations. Service and trade companies will also return to work. Liguria has joined Venice and Sardinia has allowed the use of all beaches. Even in Lombardy, which is most attacked by COVID-19, you can use restaurants, but guests are to have the temperature measured before entering.

In Rome, we will visit the Capitol and the Borghese Gallery. However, another problem arises. The owners of premises in the center of Venice or Florence do not want to open their premises because they say that the costs of sanitary measures they would have to take to counter the epidemic would exceed the income they would receive from running the premises. They explain that at this time of the year their main customers are tourists, and these cannot be expected, and if anything, their number will be significantly limited.

There are chances to spend your vacation in Italy

Italy is ready to welcome tourists from June 3, the head of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Luigi Di Maio announced on Monday. - It will be possible to travel between regions and we are ready to accept safely European citizens who want to spend their holidays in Italy - said the minister.

Even predictions have been made as to when the epidemic will end in individual regions. One of the institutions operating at the Catholic University of Rome says the provinces of Bolzano and Trento will be defeated the earliest of the coronavirus. From around May 21, there will be no new infections at all in Calabria, Umbria, Sardinia and Basilicata, and after June 17 also in Lazio, Emilia-Romagna, Marche, Liguria and Piedmont. At the latest, the situation will recover in the most-attacked Lombardy - only by mid-August there will be no new cases - or so says the health observatory in Italian regions. The only question is to open the borders of the rest of the EU so that tourists from other European countries can travel to Italy. However, each country decides about it on its own.

Veneto - travels ... culinary!
Veneto, from Italian - Veneto, is a region located in the northeastern part of the country. It borders Austria to the north, Friuli Venezia Giulia to the east, Emilia Romagna to the south, and Trentino-Alto Adige and Lombardy to the west. In terms of size, 18,500 km2, it is the eighth region of Italy. The subcontinental climate and access to both the sea and the mountains mean that tourists can visit it freely all year round - for sunbathing or skiing. Without a doubt, the most popular destination in the region is Venice , the city of canals, which is entirely based on water transport, including the famous vaporetto and pedestrian trams. This important tourist center attracts visitors mainly due to the world-famous Venetian carnival and its characteristic masks. There are also numerous monuments on site, including the Basilica and St. Mark's Square, Rialto Bridge and Clock Tower. The crowning achievement of your stay is a gondola ride on the Grand Canal. The next stop on your Veneto tour may be Padua - one of the oldest Italian cities, worth seeing one of the largest churches in the world, the Basilica of St. Anthony and the largest square in Europe - Prato della Valle. During a visit to the city, it is also worth reaching the Palace del Bo and the University Botanical Garden. It is worth enriching the trip plan by visiting Verona , made famous by Shakespeare with the work "Romeo and Juliet". There, crowds of tourists have the opportunity to go on a trip along the trail of unhappy lovers. Nature lovers, in turn, will rest on Lake Garda , which enjoys the title of the cleanest body of water in the country. There are small towns and numerous resorts around the lake.
