PESARO
Is one of the 4 Provincial capitals of the Marche region: the furthest
north, bordering with Emilia Romagna. The city lies between 2 hills:
San Bartolo to the north and Ardizio to the south. The territory of
Pesaro is one where historical events have created a unique and
interesting mix of
artistic and cultural heritage. The city and the surrounding towns show
evidence of various ages, set side by side so as to create an authentic
mosaic of works and heritage: Roman, Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, up
to the 1800s and Liberty. Testimony of this historical journey is seen
through the splendid residential, religious and military architecture
set in impressive urban contexts and in the marvellous panorama of the
surrounding hills. Pesaro has 7 Km of beaches with fine sand and
shallow water. One of the unique characteristics of Pesaro is the
proximity of the sea to the old town centre which means the city can
easily be visited on foot or by bike.

GABICCE MARE
The identity and the history of Gabicce Mare has always been married to
the sea. A safe and friendly sea which through time ha seen the
fishermen’s houses along the port gradually joined by the buildings of
a strong tradition of seaside tourism
A large part of the Municipal territory of Gabicce Mare extends within
the San Bartolo Nature Park: The gateway to the Marche Region, its
geographical configuration is unmistakable. From the long
plains of Romagna rise the cliffs of the San Bartolo hillside, the
haunt of nature lovers and a privileged observation point overhanging
the Adriatic sea. From Gabicce Mare, along a meandering road we arrive
at the ancient locality of Gabicce Monte which has some interesting
historical and artistic features. Gabicce Mare, Gabicce Monte and the
San Bartolo Nature Park form a continuous natural and homogeneous chain
offering visitors rare environmental beauty and exquisite hospitality.
