Please visit our new website. You will find all of our vacations, plus much more information, many more photos, videos and quite a bit more! http://www.culturediscovery.com

Soriano has opened our eyes to what so many miss when they travel to Italia.

Description

A great tourist center due to a beautiful lakeside beach.
It is dominated by the sixteenth century Rocca Farnese (Farnese stronghold).
From the small port there are boat trips to the nearby Bisentine Island, where there is a church that was designed by Antonio da Sangallo and that was completed by Vignola, by the order of Cardinal Alessandro Farnese. It guards the tomb of Ranuccio Farnese, one of the founders of Farnesian prestige in Tuscia . On the island itself classical music concerts are held (on certain occasions the guests are invited to dine by candle light in the park) and from June to September Renaissance music concerts are held, organised by the Musical Experimentation Center.
