Vittoriale - Ship
In English, this translates to "The Shrine of Italian Victories". Near lake Garda, this is a wonderful tourist attraction that is not to be missed! There is an estate in a sort of forest near the lake with a villa, an Amphitheatre, a Warship, a Mausoleum and so much more nestled in its grounds.

It was created by D'Annunzio between the years of 1921 and 1938 and it is like a small village as there are streets, squares, theatres, gardens and more in this place.

There is so much to see in this beautiful little citadel style creation, including a bridge decorated with tank shells and the auditorium where there is an aeroplane hanging from the ceiling.
