ABRUZZO

Abruzzo is located in central Italy and stretches from the heart of the Apennines to the Adriatic Sea, on a mainly mountainous and wild land.

Abruzzo's landscape with the high and steep peaks of the Gran Sasso, the Laga Mountains and Mount Majella, slopes down to a wide range of hills, until it finally reaches the Adriatic coast. The coast has long and sandy beaches to the north and pebbly beaches to the south.

Abruzzo has a rich culinary tradition, with various traditions attached to each province. The home-made pasta known as Maccheroni alla Chitarra comes from this region. and Scrippelle which are thin strips of pasta to eat with soup, are typical in Teramo. Most dishes on the coast, are based on fish.
