Tucked inside a restored 18th-century house, this small museum holds a surprisingly broad collection of decorative glass — everything from ancient pieces to Art Deco. Each room is set up with period furniture, so it feels more like walking through someone’s home than a typical museum.

Even if archaeology doesn't particularly excite you, this Chios museum certainly will - the skillfully arranged exposition tells a fascinating story of the island's glory days and boasts a striking collection of ancient jewelry. Exhibits date back to the 8th and 9th centuries.

A half-day walking tour puts the spotlight on Parma's famous cuisine with stops at the locals’ favourite eateries and shops. Explore the city's main attractions and make stops for small bites and interesting stories from food vendors. Start with a visit to a traditional Prosciutteria and try Culatello di Zibello, Salame Felino, Coppa, Culaccia and Spalla Cruda. Next, explore the selection at a fresh pasta shop and taste different ageings of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese at a deli. Explore traditional bistros for a glass of exquisite wine. Try some street food from an old sandwich shop. Get a flakey dessert at a patisserie and finish with a refreshingly cool and creamy artisanal gelato.

The enigmatic Sansevero Chapel is an important part of the Italian artistic heritage and is located in the historic part of Naples.
