Abruzzo (pronounced [aˈbruttso]) is a region of Central Italy, with an area of 10,763 square km (4,156 sq mi) and a population of 1.2 million. Its western border lies 80 km (50 mi) east of Rome. The region is divided into the four provinces of L'Aquila, Teramo, Pescara, and Chieti. Abruzzo borders the region of Marche to the north, Lazio to the west and south-west, Molise to the south-east, and the Adriatic Sea to the east. Geographically, Abruzzo is divided into a mountainous area to the west, which includes the Gran Sasso D'italia, and a coastal area to the east with beaches on the Adriatic sea. Abruzzo is partially considered culturally, linguistically, historically, and economically a region of Southern Italy, although geographically it may also be considered central. The Italian Statistical Authority (ISTAT) deems it to be part of Southern Italy, partially because of Abruzzo's historic association with the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

A unique and magical experience into 700 metres deep caverns that contain two waterfalls and a lake. Wear good walking shoes and a rain jacket. The one hour tours are conducted in Italian, although there is also one English speaking guide. The ticket office is conveniently located next to the cavern entrance, except for the month of August, when it is in the village below the caverns. A shuttle in in place during this time. Especially children love the experience. Recommended B&B/restaurant are: La Villa, Casa Bologna and only restaurant: Da Leda and Santino.
