Amazing Italy

With millions of U.S. visitors every year, Italy never goes out of fashion, but how do you know where to begin, how to escape the crowds and how to make the most of this stunning destination throughout the year? A new book called "Where to Go When: Italy" looks at more than 120 spectacular destinations across the country, offering the best of each season.

No visit to Italy would be complete with a trip to the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican to check out Michelangelo's amazing ceiling. Words cannot begin to describe the epic painting.
