Riding the magic carpet of Italy's museum network to discover our vast cultural heritage

By: Simone Schiavinato

Have you ever wondered what lies within a museum? Naturally, this is the question we all ask ourselves before any visit: what will I see? What are my expectations? Will there be something beautiful or interesting? Perhaps we’ve already skimmed through a book or brochure and have some idea of what to expect, maybe even a planned route. However, the point often missed isn’t in the first answer we all give ourselves.
