Rimini has everything for a good rest - a warm sea, golden beaches, a couple of ancient ruins from the time of the emperor Tiberius and dozens of shops where only the lazy cannot make their dreams come true. These simple pleasures allow tours in Rimini to be in such demand and popularity among Russian tourists.
History and its traces
The Etruscans, Umbras, Gauls and Samnites inhabited these lands together in turn, until the ancient Romans came here in the 3rd century BC to establish their military colony. Her task was to prevent the invasion of the Gauls and slowly conquer the Padan plain. Since then, Rimini, then called Ariminum, has become an important point at the crossroads of ancient Roman history.
The Arch of Emperor Augustus, erected to commemorate the completion of the road from Rome to the Adriatic coast, and the Tiberius Bridge, which flawlessly connects the banks of the Marecchia River to this day, still remain witnesses of those years.
