Rimini.
The hero of this page will be the Italian resort of Rimini. Today it is the largest resort on the Italian Adriatic. But it was not always so. The history of the city began even before our era. According to archaeologists, Rimini was founded in 268 BC.
This was the time of the beginning of the power of the Roman Empire. It was in Rimini that one of the first two roads from ancient Rome was laid. Over time, the city became an important transport crossroads of the empire, linking the north-west and south-east of the peninsula with Rome.
In those years it was called the Ariminium. About the glorious past of the city is reminiscent of the numerous architectural monuments, which I will partly touch below. But still the main theme will not be history, but today's everyday life of the city.
And the whole point is that Rimini has its own international airport and together with Bologna accepts the bulk of tourists arriving to rest on the Adriatic Riviera.
Today the city with a population of 150 thousand people, has on its territory more than a thousand hotels. Of course, this does not mean that all hotels are large palaces with swimming pools. And still the figure is impressive.
Rimini is one of the oldest beach resorts in Europe. The beginning of the tourist activity in the city begins in 1843.
It was at this time that the creation of an urban beach area was completed. And the first hotel here was opened in 1872. Both of the above-mentioned events belong to the oldest district of the city of Marina Centro.
Among other things, this place is known for the fact that the famous Italian director Federico Fellini was born here. In the rest, Marina Centro is the most luxurious and, therefore, the most expensive district of Rimini.
Therefore, if you can afford the most fashionable hotels and restaurants, then you should look for offers from this area. The most famous street of Marina Centro is Amerigo Vespucci. It stretches along the sea and along it are the most famous hotels, shops and restaurants.
Beaches.
The beaches of Rimini are conventionally divided into ten zones and cover almost 15 kilometers of the coast. The very first beach in the city and accordingly the most-most, of course, belongs to the Marina Centro area. By the way, the largest dolphinarium on the coast is in the same area.
The cost of renting an umbrella with two sunbeds in the season reaches 16 euros. In addition to the mentioned services, on the beaches of the city all kinds of outdoor activities are practiced such as: paraflaining, windsurfing, water bicycles, catamarans, sailing and motor boats.
Other beaches, as well as areas of the city, as they move away from the center, become calmer and cheaper. But there is more to it than fun. In the area of Viserbella there is a very famous park - "Italy in miniature".
Here is Italy in the form of a peninsula on a large pond. In addition, in the park you can contemplate architectural masterpieces, made at a scale of 1:25. There are many pavilions in which a specific theme is presented. In a word, to devote a park to a day is not only simple, but also very useful.
The area of Viserba is known for its health-improving recreation component. Here is the mineral spring of Sakramora, the water of which has a very beneficial effect on the human digestive system.
Festivals and wine tastings are often held in Rivabella. The Rivazzurra area is a hub for entertainment for adults and children. Here are the amusement park "Fiabilandia", a museum of dolls, the Merlin Castle, the park of the Little Jungle, as well as discos that are not allowed adults.
What to visit in Rimini.
Being in Rimini, it's silly not to see and photograph the historical monuments that have survived to this day. So the Arch of Augustus' Triumphal Arch, is considered one of the most ancient buildings in Italy. It was built in 27 BC, in honor of the completion of the Via Flaminia road, connecting Rome and present Rimini.
Another ancient relic is the Tiberius Bridge (Il Ponte di Tiberio), built in 14-21th year of our era across the Marecchia River. In the year 580, it was badly destroyed, passing through these places by the Goths.
And only after 1100 years it was restored in 1680. So he stands in this place, being one of the crossings through the mentioned river. Also in Rimini you can see the excavated remains of a Roman amphitheater, built in the second century. At one time, it accommodated 11,000 spectators. It is located on Via Vezia.
Being in Rimini, you should definitely see the square of Cavour. This is the oldest square in the city. It is decorated with two palaces: il Palazzo dell'Arengo and il Palazzo del Podestà, as well as il Teatro comunale.
The oldest of these is the Arengo Palace, built in 1203. After the last restoration, he found his original appearance. Here, as hundreds of years ago, the city authorities are meeting.
The Palazzo del Podesto, located nearby, dates back to the year 1330. Teatro Communale, was opened in 1857 with the production of the opera "Harold" by Giuseppe Verdi.
Tempio Malestiana is another attraction of Rimini. Now it performs the function of the cathedral, but was originally built as the mausoleum of the Malatesta family. Its construction began in 1447, but due to problems with the Catholic Church, it was not until 1503.
Nevertheless, Sidgismondo Malatesta, who was the customer of this object, is still today in its walls. Also, together with Sijismondo, only in other chapels, lie some of his ancestors and first wives.
