A honeymoon is an event in life that couples always look forward to, whether they are engaged or already married. For couples, this is a special time where they get to know each other on a deeper level and become more intimate while enjoying the great place they are visiting.
Europe has been a popular choice for honeymooners. It is not surprising for the wonderful places that abound in the continent. One country worth visiting on your European honeymoon is Italy.
Italy, for many people, is equated with romance. This is not much of a surprise since Europe, after all, was where the Romantic Period or Romanticism began during the second part of the 18th century. It is during this time that people began to feel free to express themselves in music, the arts, and literature.
In Italy, there are many reasons why you can have an unforgettable and romantic honeymoon. Only the people are already warm and hospitable and the places themselves provide a cozy atmosphere that is conducive to love and romance.
