Abruzzo

A region of Italy: 10,494 square kilometers. 2003 population: 1,273,000. Capital: L'Aquila.

The Via Strinella is one of the most important streets of L'Aquila,
the region's capital.

The Abruzzo (also: the Abruzzi) is one of the more sparsely inhabited areas of Italy. The region is divided into 4 provinces, three of which are coastal.

L'Aquila Province is the only Abruzzese province I've visited, and that pretty briefly; still, I have some material of my own, and a scholarly article on the remains of the Roman town of Carsioli.

[ 7 pages, 27 photos, 4 maps, 4 engravings ]

Other than that, I don't know the Abruzzo at all: you will therefore find yourself using offsite resources.

Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.)
