Source Genoa was a settlement of the Ligurian in ancient times. In 209 A. C. the city is destroyed by the Carthaginians and then rebuilt by the Romans. In the third century was converted into Episcopal See. After the fall of the Roman Empire was occupied by the Byzantines, and later by the Lombard. In the year 935 the city was looted and taken by a fleet Saracen.

VERONA: Verona is a city of 264,655 inhabitants, situated north of Italy, capital of the province of the same name, one of seven provinces in the Veneto region. It is one of the most attractive and interesting places in Italy, is the most beautiful monumental city of Veneto after Venice. Close to the main sightseeing spots in the north of this country, is a vibrant center of modern economy. It is surrounded by hills and trapped by a meander of the river Adige, about 30 kilometres east of Lake Garda. The city has an international airport, rail and road, which facilitates access to the city. In Verona we can find an interesting historical center, and a few metres from the fourteenth century Castello Scaligero, Juliet House, the Arena, and the second century Roman amphitheater. Verona is an important geographic node. It has always been central hub of all transportation systems and ground water in northeast Italy. In Roman times it was a meeting point of four consular channels: via the Gallica, via Augusta, Vicum Veronensium and via Postumia.

BERGAMO: is a town in Lombardy, Italy, about 40km northeast of Milan. The commune is home to c. 117,000 inhabitants. It is served by Orio al Serio Airport, which also serves the Province of Bergamo, and to a lesser extent Milan. The foothills of the Alps begin immediately north of the town.Bergamo occupies the site of the ancient town of Bergomum, founded as a settlement of the Celtic tribe of Cenomani. In 49 BC it became a Roman municipality, containing c. 10,000 inhabitants at its peak. An important hub on the military road between Friuli and Raetia, it was destroyed by Attila in the 5th century.
From the 6th century Bergamo was the seat of one of the most important Lombard duchies of northern Italy, together with Brescia, Trento and Cividale del Friuli: its first Lombard duke was Wallaris. After the conquest by Charlemagne of the Lombard Kingdom, it became the seat of a county under one Auteramus (died 816). From the 11th century onwards Bergamo was an independent commune, taking part in the Lombard League which defeated Frederick I Barbarossa in 1165. Caught in the bitter fights between Guelphs and Ghibellines, led in the city by the Colleoni and the Suardi respectively, from 1264 Bergamo was intermittently under the rule of Milan. In 1331 it gave itself to John of Bohemia, but later the Visconti of Milan reconquered it. After a short conquest by the Malatesta in 1407, in 1428 it fell under the control of the Venetian Republic, remaining part of it until 1797. Notably, the Venetians fortified the higher portion of the town (see Main sights section).
In 1815 it was assigned to Austria. Giuseppe Garibaldi freed it 1859, and thenceforth Bergamo was part of the Kingdom of Italy.

MILAN: is one of the largest cities in Italy, located in the plains of Lombardy. It is the capital in the Province of Milano, The municipality (Comune di Milano) has a population of 1.3 million. The Milan metropolitan area, depending on the specific definition, has a population ranging from 2.9 to 7.4 million. The municipal border covers a relatively small area (about one-eighth that of Rome) because of the historical development of high density centres in agriculturally rich Lombardy.

Milan is typically classified as having a Humid subtropical climate (Cfa). In contrast to most of Italy, which is famous for a comfortable Mediterranean climate, Milan's winters are typically damp and cold, while summers are warm and quite muggy at times. Average temperatures are -3/+6°C in January and +15/+28°C in July. Snowfalls are relatively common in winter, even if in the last 15-20 years they have decreased in frequency and amount.

Humidity is quite high during the whole year and annual precipitation averages about 1000 mm (40 in).
