Facing the beautiful, blue-green Adriatic is the city of Ancona in Italy with plenty of things to do. Often overlooked by tourists, this seaside port and also the capital of the Marche region has more to offer than some might think. Founded by the Greeks, the small Ancona port once served a significant role in the trade across the Adriatic. Over time, the city was divided into two parts: the old town, Monte Guasco – where the history of the city lies – and the coastal area, which has been developed to keep in step with modern times. Throughout Ancona’s old town, you’ll find remnants of the ancient Greeks, monuments like the Cathedral of San Ciriaco sitting atop Guasco Hill, the Trajan’s Arch, and the Romanesque Church of Santa Maria della Piazza.
