Marche’s most outstanding feature is the Apennine range of mountains, the Umbro Marchigiano that runs throughout the region giving life to a series of valleys and hills which make up the incredible Furlo gorge in the area of Fossombrone. The provinces of Marche are: Ancona, Ascoli Piceno, Macerata, Pesaro and Urbino.
Ancona reveals clear traces of the glorious Roman domination with its famous Traiano Arch and the Antonelliana Mole.
Ascoli Piceno and Macerata are full of history and have preserved intact their streets and neighbourhoods where towers, medieval churches and renaissance buildings come together to form a harmonious and compact pattern. The city of Urbino rose from the Montefeltro family’s boundary walls which are enriched with beautiful buildings and towers. It was the same family, which Fredrick descended from, that founded the famous University of Urbino during the Renaissance period.
Marche owes its steady flow of tourists to its coastline and its charming towns. Pesaro stands in first place with a wide range of accommodation choices and a perfect balance of seaside, nightlife and a beautifully kept old town centre.
The most famous seaside towns are Civitanova, Gabicce Mare, Porto Recanati, Falconara and San Benedetto del Tronto.
Marche also has important thermal spa resorts like Acquasanta, Macerata Feltria, Sarnano and Tolentino.
