Verucchio

Sitting on a spur above the Marecchia river valley, this compact Emilia-Romagna village has earned a place in Italy's official register of its most beautiful villages, and its elevated position delivers scenic views across the surrounding countryside. Several historic churches and a handful of cafés and restaurants give it more substance than its size might suggest, and it sits a short drive from Rimini.
