San Marino is the third smallest country in Europe and the fifth smallest country in the world
In case you just joined us, we are Mansoureh and Bruno. We are on a road trip around Italy and
in the previous video, we visited some of the most beautiful places in Emilia Romania, a region in
the north of Italy. Today we are going on an exciting day trip. sit back relax and enjoy our video
good morning from Italy we are in Emilia Romania but today we are going
to check out another country actually, we are exiting Italy for a day and we are going to
one tiny country inside Italy, It is not the Vatican, it is San Marino
we are officially in a new country and we are in the capital city
which is called San Marino and we park our car and we are taking the lift to the centre
most of the people come to visit San Marino for a day trip we wanted to
avoid the crowd that's why we drove early and that is why there is no tourist
I think we should walk a bit, no? this is the lift these are the stairs
I think it's too much. I'm kidding here also we have Italian breakfast
Crossaints are bigger than Italian Crossaints
the main spoken language in San Marino is Italian and its culture is heavily influenced by Italy
but the Sammarinese have a strong sense of identity and are proud of their unique culture
San Marino is the third smallest country in Europe and the fifth smallest country
in the world, I've been to the smallest country which is the Vatican
San Marino is also one of the oldest republics in the world with a population of just 33000
waiting for the guard changing
the changing of the guard ceremony takes place in front of the parliament
several times a day in the summer time
we can go inside the building. The parliament of San Marino has 60 members elected for
a five-year term from the 5th-century San Marino was ruled by a direct democracy assembly
the three towers sitting on the peaks of Mount Titano are the symbol of the Republic of San Marino
The oldest and the largest one is Torre Guaita known as la Rocca or as locals call it the first tower
now we are walking on the first tower Guaita
this tower was built in the 11th century and it served as a prison until 1975
but now it's a museum
here you have the view of the whole country
from here we can walk to the second tower
Torre Cesta, known as Falesia. it was built in the 13th century as a defensive fortress this tower stands on the
highest peaks and offers a great view of San Marino and the Italian coastline of Rimini
here we have the view of the sea but some people say if
the day is clear you should be able to see Croatia
but right now there is a haze and we don't see properly anything when we can't see the beaches
now let's go and check the third tower okay this is the third and last tower
it's close to the public that's why we can't climb to the top of the tower but here we have a great view
I am glad that we came early I mean now is too busy. and I'm sure that if like now is exactly 12 m
I'm sure that around uh one you can't even find a table in a restaurant
and I ordered salad it's a hot day you know when it's hot I love salads and it's quite
big avocado with chicken but i don't know what Bruno really ordered Ravioli
you think I just had salad no I'm so hot and when we finished our food, we walked down
to have ice cream because it's really hot mine is coffee I don't know what Bruno ordered
it's so sweet mine is basically coffee coffee bean coffee powder coffee cream
we just put a random spot that looks nice from Google Maps that's our style we are really
in countryside roads at the moment
there's a walking path down there, there are people coming up maybe we can check it out we are
walking down to the sea but to be honest we don't know what we should expect
we don't know even if it's a beach or rocky beach or sandy beach or whatever
but we're just following the path and it's so beautiful
the part is getting narrower and narrower and tricky to pass
there's a car park here I don't know why we parked up there and we had to walk all the way
actually, we found a quiet beach it's it's not a sandy beach it's a rocky beach
but there is no one around us and we have it to ourselves
and we are going to stay here to relax I hope you enjoyed this video if you
