Description
San Marino, officially known as the Republic of San Marino, is a landlocked country situated on the northeastern side of the Apennine Mountains in Italy. It is one of the smallest countries in the world, covering an area of just 61 square kilometers. San Marino boasts a rich history that dates back to A.D. 301, when it was founded by St. Marinus, a Christian stonemason seeking refuge from religious persecution. This tiny republic is known for its medieval architecture, picturesque landscapes, and well-preserved historical sites.
The capital city, San Marino Città, is renowned for its stunning fortress, Guaita, and the Three Towers that dominate the skyline. These towers, along with the historic city walls, provide insight into the country's military past and serve as a popular tourist attraction. The city is characterized by narrow streets, charming squares, and a vibrant atmosphere filled with shops, cafes, and museums showcasing San Marino's cultural heritage.
San Marino is not a member of the European Union, but it uses the Euro as its official currency. The government operates as a parliamentary representative democratic republic, with two Captains Regent serving as the heads of state. Despite its small size, San Marino offers a unique blend of history, culture, and stunning natural beauty, making it a fascinating destination for visitors.
