Italy

Hi! Welcome! Let's hope I can surprise you one more time... Take a peek to this image. This natural wonder has attracted large crowds of curious tourists for almost two hundred years now, but its significance as a cultural and perhaps religious site dates back to before recorded history of life on the beautifull island of Capri. To get to the cave, you must catch a speed boat from the Marina Grande which then transfers you to small canoe-like crafts that will fit into the grotto's narrow opening.
And you are already asking yourself what is the name of this cave? The answer is Grotta Azzurra, meaning blue cave.
Depending on the time of day, the cavern inside glows a brilliant or subdued dark blue color. Some tourists wonder if they had rigged the cave to appear blue, but in fact the color is a natural phenomenon of light that is refracted from the bluish water outside the small underwater portals leading into the grotto. Because of the attraction's popularity, the wait outside the cave's entrance can be very long but inside there it is all worthy.

Then anyone can wonder where it can be found... And it is on Italy! Something about: Italy was a land of sociability of many known influent european civilizations, as greek and roman. It's capital Rome has been a global city historically important, overall focusing on ancient Rome and catholic church.
Italy it's not all about Rome, actually all in that country is a good reason for art. Every city is a source of inspiration, some examples are Florence, Venice, Turin and Milan. Culture and art has given influence to europe in most and also some part of the world. In Italy it has born different intelectual and artistic movements that spread around europe and rest of the world, such as Renaissance and Baroque style. The italian contribution to art and culture came from art works made by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli and others.
Besides painture, sculpture and architecture, the contributions of science, literature and music are unquestionable. In science to stand out Gaileu Galilei, da Vinci.
In the area of music the classic becomes an expression of sounds. Instruments were invented in Italy such the piano and violin which made able to perform artistic forms or music such as syphony, concert and sonata. It has born the opera by Claudio Monteverdi in the Renaissance. Also there are other composers like Vivaldi in the Baroque age, classic for Rossini and romantic for Verdi, among others...
Now it's time to say good-bye. I hope you have fun, till my next post! =)
