Teramo
Surrounded by a very suggestive hills chain, Teramo is between the snow of Gran Sasso and sand of the Adriatic Sea. Such a peculiar position generated a peculiar cultural landscape, as fifty-two thousand Teramane blend together the stiffness of the rocks and hospitality of the seaside, in an alliance capable of great friendships and extraordinary leaps of generosity, but also of inviolable confidentiality. Protected, not isolated, by several mountains, Teramo enjoys a special accessibility: two highways (the Rome-Teramo A24 and the A14 Bologna-Taranto), a railway line grafted to the backbone Adriatic station of Giulianova and an airport near Pescara (only at 40 minutes drive). In Teramo each historical era is well represented, and there are no streets or squares in which eyes do not witness any relation with the past. Walking through the winding streets is like using a kind of invisible time machine that, with elegance and discretion, evokes the splendour of Plautus and Verdi scenes, of the mosaics and brocade robes and cloths from raw wool. A race with time in a city that has managed to grow without forgetting itself.
