The ancient Roman theater is a treasure of ancient European civilization, and its remains are mainly distributed in Rome, Verona and Ostia. These theaters are characterized by semi-circular stepped stone structures. Some well-preserved ruins are still used for opera performances, such as the open-air concerts in the summer at the Verona Arena. Visitors can observe the arches, carved decorations and drainage systems up close to experience the exquisiteness and magnificence of ancient Roman architecture. Because the stone steps of the theater are relatively hard, it is recommended that visitors wear sports shoes with cushioning function. When traveling in summer, it is recommended to bring a sun hat, and in winter, pay attention to windproof and warmth. The surrounding restaurants are mainly concentrated in the historical city, and there are usually no convenience stores in the theater. The Verona Arena has a large temperature difference at night, so it is recommended to bring a light jacket in case of emergency. The theater's opening hours and ticket price information can be checked on the official website to ensure a smooth itinerary.Catania · 9.2 km from Acitrezza

Mount Etna is located on the east coast of Sicily and is the highest active volcano in Europe, with an altitude of more than 3,200 meters. This is also the most frequently erupted volcano in the world, with more than 200 smaller volcanic cones around it, and during periods of intense activity, a large amount of lava often flows out. Tourists can take the ropeway cable car, and then transfer to the special sightseeing bus for mountaineering to arrive near the crater, and watch the lava flow and hot spring waterfall, as well as the unique landscape of the black volcanic heap. In summer, there are also outdoor activities such as volcano trekking groups, and the scenery at the top at sunset is particularly beautiful. If you are interested and have time, you can sign up. In winter, it turns into a ski area.Castiglione di Sicilia · 25.6 km from Acitrezza
