Things to do in  Ravenna

All that glitters is gold in Ravenna, home to some of the most magnificent Byzantine mosaics in the world. Travelers visit this historic city to marvel at the luminous 5th- and 6th-century masterpieces that cover the interiors of the UNESCO-listed San Vitale Basilica, Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, and Basilica of Sant'Apollinare Nuovo, plus pay their respects at the tomb of the medieval poet Dante. Local cooking classes, market tours, and dining experiences tempt visitors to savor Ravenna’s other treasure: traditional Romagnolo cuisine.
