Molise, Mainarde. Sunset
Mountain range which, compared to the Abruzzo National Park, extends from north to south and whose crests delimit the border between Lazio (west) and Molise (east). Due to its importance both from a naturalistic and faunistic point of view, the mountain range was inserted by presidential decree in the Abruzzo National Park in January 1990. It includes high altitude peaks that are around 2000 meters: Monte Meta (2241), Monte Metuccia, Coste dell'Altare, Monte Mare (2020), Monte Cavallo (2039), Monte Forcellone (2030). The Mainarde, like the rest of the Apennine mountains, are very ancient and of limestone origin. On them the erosion of winds and waters has left clear traces in gorges, gullies and beautiful potholes of the giants, the latter very clearly visible by anyone who looks out from the viewpoint of San Michele. Covered by dense arboreal vegetation (beech groves) up to an altitude of 1800-1900 meters, the Mainarde - beyond this altitude - offer a spectacular turf, ideal habitat for particular types of endangered fauna such as the Abruzzo chamois the Marsican brown bear, the Apennine wolf and the lynx.

Anagni. The Cathedral Basilica of S. Maria Annunziata
Anagni Cathedral stands on the summit of the acropolis and is the result of several construction phases. The Romanesque style (1072-1104) was joined by the Gothic style around the mid-13th century. On one of the exterior walls is a statue of Pope Boniface VIII. In 1160, Alexander III pronounced the excommunication of Barbarossa here, and Pope Innocent IV was elected here. The interior is predominantly Gothic, and retains a Cosmatesque-style floor and the Caetani Chapel with a large tomb. The crypt contains a cycle of frescoes (1104-1255) depicting scenes from the Old and New Testaments. The cathedral also houses the reliquary of Saint Thomas Becket.
