Italy has an innate sense of romance; Lemon houses nestled in jagged mountains, remote fishing villages and foggy lakes are only accessible by boat.
It is a country that has the power to take you, and these hidden places prove that at least the love affair in Italy is alive and well.
Tellaro, Liguria
Not far from the colourful Zinc Terrace, the Telaro is slightly less star-studded than its neighbours but can be equally impressive. A tiny village, with its Liberine streets sewn through and under colourful buildings, the Clementine walls play against the yellow face of the sunlight.
Built firmly along the rocky slopes of the area, the city has a quiet, quiet vibe, with its brightly decorated buildings that seem to be trying to hide. One reason for this may be the legend of the owl. According to local legends, a giant owl came to the rescue at a time when pirates were looting and warned residents to have time to flee from the pirates by sticking the bell to the tower.
Murano, Veneto
Venice Lagoon Venice has long been an island of choice, but Murano has made a name for himself as an exit for romantics. Murano was once the glass capital of the world, and it would be nice to spend time watching one of the many glass-blowing representations and gifting a loved one (or yourself) a kaleidoscopic, bright piece. Still, the island has more than its material glory.
Cry and cry from the tourist-saturated streets of Venice, past the rugged, industrially colourful houses of the Murano Canals. The waterways are rarely crowded, which means you have all the ideas that Venice offers without crowds.
Portofino, Liguria
Colourful, mountainous and iconic, the Portofino is one of Ellen's leading class in Italy. A small, picturesque fishing village, its patchwork attraction has made the world's aristocracy and honeymooners magnetize a once-hidden beach: Lemon and blood orange houses, green Ligurian slopes.
Take a narrow staircase to Chesa de San Giorgio's Plaza and dive deep into the Yapahuwa Fort with a yellow face or the port of Portofino to see the sights of the city.
When it's time for dinner, skip the city's waterfront restaurants for something a little closer, and take the boat to neighbouring San Furtuzo - accessible by boat or on foot - to La Cantina Falls. Here you can cook spaghetti and Mongol under a parasol with floral trellis and pictures.
Positano, Campania
Embracing the southern part of the Amalfi coast of Italy, Positano is the dream of the romantics of the hill country. The pink, peach and sky blue houses knock over each other, snatching the fragrant geranium balconies of the fuchsia line and wrapping them around the rough streets. It's hard not to fall in love a bit when you see the city, so rent a boat and toast to the beautiful scenery in front of you.
When you get back, grab your loved ones and wander the picturesque, loop streets, I think every turn deserves a photo opportunity as a last resort. The tendency (and deterioration) helps to improve appetite, so go to the restaurant Teresa Sale for atmospheric views and delicious seafood.
Orta San Giulio, Piedmont
The city of Orta San Julio has washed ashore on Lake Orta. It often has a place in the hearts of the natives of its larger, more glamorous neighbours, Como and Maggiore - Orta and its cities. Orta San Julio, The fog at one point, hangs low around the lake and the city, then the sunlight flows through the canopy clouds above, and the lake glistens beneath the hypnosis.
It's a scenic backdrop throughout the season, but head to Isola San Julio for a clear picture of the romantic entanglement of Orta San Julio's distant blooming buildings.
Take a 'quiet walk' around the Benedictine monastery, where the flowers spread into the fragrant lake before swimming in the water at sunset.
