Storia e cultura delle Isole Eolie

A trip to the Aeolian Islands offers more that a recreational dimension satisfied by the sea and by the night life. As testified during the millennium - but still today -, from innumerable artists, the Aeolian Islands arise a state of soul, which, crushed by the strength of nature and the immanence of the testimonies of the past epochs, it surrenders till entering a condition of abandonment to these strengths, leaving itself to transport in a run that frequently finishes with a tribute of eternity love. 
Therefore, since the first colonization, that happened over 6,000 years ago, they have accumulated the relics of a past time that represents a meaningful piece of the Mediterranean history.
