Medieval
villages are strewn throughout the Italian
countryside and travel expert Laura McKenzie
introduces you to several. She brings us along
on her journey to Fiuggi, a spa town legendary
for its healing waters. One of Laura's favorite
places to stay is the Grand Hotel Palazzo Della
Fonte, and she'll reveal why it's considered one
of the most elegant and modern hotels in all of
Europe. After a good night's sleep, Laura is off
to Fumone to explore the FumoneCastle,
and learns of its chilling history. We'll tour
the miraculous Montecassino Monastery leveled
during WW II, then lovingly rebuilt to its
original splendor, but nothing will prepare you
for the discoveries that await you inside St.
Peter's Basilica. No visit to the Italian
countryside is complete without an insider's
look at a local winery. Laura talks with the
owners of Casal Pilozzo. It will leave you
thirsting for
more!
