# Macerata

Macerata is a city in Marche Region in Italy. It is known for being the place where the Jesuit priest Matteo Ricci was born.

## Get in

Macerata is most easily accessible using Italy's efficient trains. Whether you are arriving from the north, most likely through Bologna, or from Rome, you are going to have to transfer from the faster, larger trains to smaller, regional ones. Information about train fares and timetables are easily found online. Tourists to Macerata can also arrive by car. This might be a more desirable option if you are staying outside of the old city walls, or have a limited amount of time in the city, and want to see many sites in that short time.

## Get around

Macerata has a bus system that will take visitors to harder to reach places outside of the walls in the newer parts of the city. However, the most efficient, and in many ways more pleasant, way of seeing the city is to walk. Macerata is an old Medieval town with the center of the city high on a hill. The old part of town is completely walled in, with the newer parts of town lying outside of the walls. Walking the old part of the city is easy in one day, but there are many alleys and side streets to get lost in, which you should allow yourself to do. Macerata is not very easily accessible for those with disabilities, as there are a lot of stairs in the old part of town.

## See

You have probably never heard of Macerata because it doesn't have the kinds of attractions that draw visitors to the city. Macerata is alluring to the tourist who wants to experience life at an Italian's pace. It is a small, laid back city with very little tourist activity. Every summer in Macerata, many Italians and some tourists flock to Macerata for the Sferisterio Opera Festival, which is widely renowned in the region.

## Other destinations

Treia is listed as a borgo più bello d'Italia, that is one of the most beautiful small towns and villages in Italy. It has a very complete citadel wall surrounding it with arched gateways leading into the steeply cobbled centre, each one different. The streets are very narrow, some only 2.2 metres wide so don't be tempted to drive in. Park outside and wander through the fascinating interior which makes you feel as though you have wandered into a film set.There is a theatre which operates mainly in the Winter months but can be visited in Summer through the tourist office. There many hilltop towns and villages but this is one of the most interesting and hardly altered. To give you an idea one gateway is called the porta Nuova and it is 17th century.

## Eat

Two particularly good ristorante just a stone's throw from the centre are Il Casolare dei Segreti, contrada San Lorenzo which has a seasonal menu, limited choice but that to me is usually a good thing as everything is fresh. The food is Marchigiani but modernised, sometimes with a twist. Their tiramisù has a base of a globe of home made coffee ice cream and is to die for. Go towards Appignano from the centro storico and take a left turn signed San Lorenzo. It is 3 km at the top of a hill on the left. best to book. Il Villino is also good particularly for the grilled meats, especially the tagliata of vitellone served on a cast iron palter to keep it warm. The owners came from Argentina over 20 years ago and know a good piece of beef when they see it. The food here is more rustic more none the worse for that and the quality is excellent. Again best to book. There are bars and pizzerias in Treia centro storico and a gastronomia which sell very good ready cooked local dishes, different every day so if you are staying Treia in a rental house you can eat good local food at home if you don't want to eat out every night and its very reasonably priced. It si on the right hand side as you go towards Appignano about 200 metres from the centro storico.

## Understand

Duut Manhan is the highest part of Hongor sand. The local people gave it the name because when you lie on the sand looking up, you can hear the sound of airplanes flying overhead. The sand dunes range from 10 to 195 meters in height from the base to the top, and when the wind blows, they make sounds like music. A clear example of this is the sound dunes of the Khongoryn sand. This sound comes from the tact that the tine particles of sand are blown away by the wind and become electrified and its positive and negative electric charges dissipate.

## Get in

## Understand

In Middle Persian, Khorasan literally meant "where the sun rises"—a fitting name as this region at the northeastern tip of Iran is where the sun is seen earliest in the country every day. Apart from the hard-to-miss holy city of Mashhad, here you will find ancient buildings and artifacts from various empires that ruled the region throughout the history intermingling with a diverse array of ethnicities (Turkmens, Afghans/Pashtuns, Baluchis, and Arabs depending on where you are).
Whether you are on an overland tour of the world west to east, or are following the steps of Marco Polo along the Silk Road, Khorasan can be a great gateway to Central Asia. In addition to the transportation links to West Afghanistan and Turkmenistan the region has, and the consulates of Central Asian countries conveniently based in Mashhad, traditional yurts of nomadic Turkmens dotting the Khorasani countryside (especially on its northern reaches) will make you feel you are at the gate of something different from now-familiar Persian heartland.
The three provinces and their constituent counties are:
* North Khorasan - comprising 6 counties: Bojnourd; Esfarayen; Garmeh Jajarm; Maneh Semelghan; Shirvan; Farooj
* Razavi Khorasan (between North Khorasan and South Khorasan) - comprising 19 counties: Bardaskan; Chenaran; Dargaz; Fariman; Ghouchan; Gonabad; Khaf; Kalat; Kashmar; Khalil Abad; Mashhad; Neyshabour; Roshtkhar; Sabzevar; Sarakhs; Torbat-e Jam; Torbat-e heydariyeh; Taybad; Mahvelat
