Romagna: nature, traditions and culture

The word evokes the Romagna Adriatic coast between the mouth of the Po to fly and the mountain behind the Marche Gabicce Mare is over 100 years the resort of Italy.
Behind the tourist resorts and beaches but there is much more.
Before a tidy flat and fertile orchards immense.
Then, besides the Roman Via Emilia, rolling hills, pointing towards the Apennines between Tuscany and Romagna, which in the southernmost part of the Romagna region comes close to touching the sea. The coast
A flat coastline, the product of alluvial deposits carried by the Po and the Rhine, and by several small streams that often have been modified by man in port-channel.
The best known and most characteristic (designed by Leonardo da Vinci) is in Cesenatico.
The beaches, only until a few decades ago, were formed by a series of dunes that stretched for almost the entire Adriatic Coast. A pattern had been the sea, quell'Adriatico that today all appreciate the pleasant water temperature in the mid-June.

The plain
Jointly the fog in winter and summer fog, the Romagna plain merges with the sky and seems without boundaries. For miles the land is not significant variations in height and is still today, an immense and compact stretch of orchards and crops qualified. Only on days of clear sky, or from Bertinoro Gabicce Monte has a real idea of the extent of the plain that reaches to the North Hills Hills in Veneto, northeast forward to the Carso, while to the south stops at 'height of the Via Emilia.

The Apennines
The idea of the Romans to trace the console between Rimini and Milan to the shelter of the first foothills of the Apennines was undoubtedly a wise choice.
He circumvented the problems of waterlogging in plain water and check the outlets of the best military valleys carved by rivers that spring up in the woods of the Apennines between Tuscany and Romagna.
Probably these are the less known places in the Romagna, made of rounded hills and as more and more accentuated, of rocky structures and specific areas where nature is still in the foreground.
In fact there are many protected areas, including even the National Park of Casentino Forests, Mount Falterona, Campigna.
