Places to see in ( Latina - Italy )
Latina is the capital of the province of Latina in the Lazio region, in central Italy. As of 2011, the city has 115,895 inhabitants and is thus the second-largest city of the region, after the national capital Rome. It was founded in 1932 under the fascist administration, as Littoria, when the area surrounding it, which had been a swamp since antiquity, was drained.
Latina was founded by Benito Mussolini on 30 June 1932 as Littoria, named for the fascio littorio. The city was inaugurated on 18 December of the same year. Littoria was populated with settlers coming mainly from Friuli and Veneto, who formed the so-called Venetian-Pontine community (today surviving only in some peripheral boroughs). The edifices and the monuments, mainly in rationalist style, were designed by famous architects and artists such as Marcello Piacentini, Angiolo Mazzoni and Duilio Cambellotti. In 1934 it became a provincial capital and, after World War II, renamed Latina in 1946. With the arrival of other people mostly from Lazio itself, the original Venetian-like dialect was increasingly substituted by a form of Romanesco dialect.
The city coat of arms is a blue shield with a stylized drawing of the City Hall Clock Tower in the middle, standing on a field of green, and flanked by two stalks of wheat tied at the base with a red ribbon engraved with the motto LATINA OLIM PALUS (Latina, once a swamp) in Latin. The shield is surmounted by a mural crown. The arms combine the three colors of the Flag of Italy (red, white, and green) with the black of the Fascism and the Azzurro Savoia (the blue of the House of Savoy).
The city has some pharmaceutical, chemical industry, cheese production and has a strong service sector. Latina is also an important centre for agriculture (vegetables, flowers, sugar, fruit, cheese and derivates). The former Latina nuclear power plant has been shut down and is currently undergoing decommissioning. The frazioni of Latina are: Latina Lido, Latina Scalo, Borgo Bainsizza, Borgo Carso, Borgo Faiti, Borgo Grappa, Borgo Isonzo, Borgo Montello, Borgo Piave, Borgo Podgora, Borgo Sabotino, Borgo Santa Maria, Borgo San Michele, Chiesuola, and Tor Tre Ponti.

Peschici - Piccola Grande Italia
La “Perla del Gargàno”, così è conosciuta la bellissima Pèschici, splendido borgo abbracciato in un’antica cinta muraria, arroccato su un bellissimo costone roccioso da cui si ammira tutta la bellezza delle sue spiagge e delle sue acque cristalline. Una rilassante passeggiata aspetta il visitatore nel suo bianco centro storico dove il candido colore delle case fa da meravigliosa cornice agli stupendi angoli fioriti di cui sono disseminati i pittoreschi vicoli. Qui, dove tra splendidi scorci e colorate botteghe, si respira tutta la magia dell’antico borgo dei pescatori.

Speciale Capoluoghi d'Italia - Pistoia
Capoluoghi ci porta in Toscana a Pistoia, città dei Pulpiti, celebrata capitale italiana della cultura nel 2017. Il capoluogo dell’omonima Provincia è un vero museo di arte e storia. L’itinerario religioso è senz’altro uno dei punti di forza di Pistoia. Non a caso la maestosa cattedrale di San Zeno conserva l’unica reliquia di San Giacomo esistente fuori da Santiago di Compostela, per questo in città c’è una forte devozione per il Santo. Inoltre la cupola della Basilica della Madonna dell’Umiltà è la terza in Italia per grandezza. Nel corso del programma incontriamo il sindaco, il vescovo, l’arciprete della cattedrale, l’assessore al Turismo, il presidente dell’eccellente fondazione MAIC, il rappresentante dell’antica Romea Strata e gli altri protagonisti del territorio. Il conduttore Mario Placidini ci accompagna nella visita del centro storico, delle pregevoli chiese, della torre campanaria, del museo diocesano, dell’antico Spedale del Ceppo, in una gioiosa passeggiata alla scoperta delle opere dei tanti artisti del passato. Inoltre mostriamo i grandi treni d’epoca della ferrovia Porrettana e ammiriamo gli eccellenti vivai del luogo. Infine conosciamo le manifestazioni, e in una trattoria degustiamo i saporiti piatti tipici toscani. Buona visione.
