Traveling St. Augustine once said, “The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.” I agree with this quote because traveling is an experience of life. The book, World’s Greatest Books published by Parragon Books (no author), lists thirty cities who they believe are the greatest in the world. Traveling increases an individual’s understanding of other cultures, religions, and ways of life. The various places I wish to visit consist of modern, historic, and diverse cities around

Monumental Externalities: Introduction: Italy as the worlds 5th most visited destination and with 50 Unesco World Heritage Sites (the most of any country) is a tourism powerhouse.
