Newly Recommended Hotels in the Aeolian Islands
"Rising from the Mediterranean off the northeastern coast of Sicily, the Aeolian Islands lure discerning international travelers because they remain so unspoiled and authentic. Their appeal has now been boosted by the arrival of several stylish and very comfortable hotels. Our writer visited three such properties on two islands, Stromboli and Salina, and came away with two recommendations."
Exploring Italy’s Salina Island
"The lush beauty of Salina, a place where swaths of bougainvillea and jasmine come tumbling off rooftops and over walls, is so overwhelming that few visitors get around to investigating the island’s history. But it is well worth spending a day with a guide. Friends in Rome had recommended Elena Basurto, a friendly young woman who speaks perfect English and has deep knowledge of Salina’s history, geology, architecture and flora and fauna..."

Alicudi, Filicudi, Salina, Lipari, Panarea, Stromboli and Vulcano were collectively designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2000..."
Search Jewish Rome: A Walking Tour of the Former Ghetto
"It’s possible to pass from one side of Rome’s Jewish Ghetto to the other without even noticing it’s there. Much of it was demolished in the late 19th century, but, for once, the destruction wasn’t caused by anti-Semitism. The street plan of the neighborhood was redrawn in an effort to make it more livable, and few people mourned the loss of the ghetto’s narrow, airless lanes..."
