In fact, this magnificent arch has weathered the assaults of time with careless aplomb and makes for spectacular photographs. Wander through the arch and visit the grounds while you are there.
Piazza Tre Martiri
This square lies at the very heart of the city so on any real excursion it would be a hard one to miss, and you certainly wouldn’t want to.
It is surrounded by architectural delights which have all witnessed Rimini’s history in the making. To the south you have the tiny Tempietto di Sant Antonio and Chiesa Dei Paolotti. In total contrast, on the north, there are chic boutiques and top-end restaurants. The square itself plays host to a seasonal market and if you time it right you might get to see a live concert.
Castel Sismondo
This palace is one of the most important historical buildings in Rimini. It was designed by Sismondo Pandollo Malatesta, lord of Rimini in 1437. Consisting of six stone towers and surrounded by a moat, it fell into disrepair. As recently as 1967 the ancient moat was still being used as a prison.
Today the palace is undergoing renovation and some of the magnificent rooms such as the delightfully named Snail’s Bedroom and the Cricket’s Room are once again being revealed.
Ruota Panoramica
Let’s face it, no matter how much you enjoy traveling and exploring new places, it can be a tiring business and sometimes you just want to sit down and admire the view. One way to get a panoramic overview of this city is to hop onto a giant Ferris wheel and Rimini has just the thing.
The Ruota Panoramica is 55 meters high, weighs 360 tons, and offers spectacular views of the city and the coastline. What’s more, you won’t be dangling in one of those crazy little seats. Instead, you will be able to admire the world below you from the comfort of a cozy and secure cabin offering the view without the adrenalin rush.
Rimini Beach
Finally, there is the beach. To mention Rimini without emphasizing its beach would be to do the city a disservice. Here you can laze on a sun lounger, duck into a quaint little coffee shop or sip cocktails at one of the many beachfront hotels. All the options for all the family.
