Ascoli Piceno, a small but bustling city, is a delightful alternative to the more crowded destinations in Italy. There are two busy piazzas in the city center. Piazza del Popolo is centered among buildings built with travertine stone from the nearby mountains. Along with lively open-air restaurants, Piazza del Popolo has markets. The city’s other major square, Piazza Arringo, is home to the city’s administrative and religious buildings. Surrounding this piazza are Palazzo dell'Arengo, the cathedral, and the baptistery of Saint John. Throughout the city, you’ll be able to spy 50 medieval towers, which are the remains of the 200 that once stood in the area. Overall, Ascoli Piceno has all of the history, excitement, and excellent cuisine of Italy’s larger cities, but with fewer crowds.
