Understand

There has been a settlement at Rimini since pre-historic times. To the Romans, Ariminum was a link between the "Italic" and the "Gallic" lands, a stronghold on the Adriatic and a gateway to the Po valley. Three major roads converged here - the Flaminian Way, the Aemilian Way and the Popilian Way.

Rimini today is a thriving, bustling resort on the Italian Riviera that boasts "over a thousand hotels". It is one of the least pretentious towns in Italy, and has a well-deserved reputation for

Get in

By plane

As a renowned resort area, Rimini has its own international airport (http://www.riminiairport.com/). Buses run the 7km from the airport to the train station in the centre of the town.

By train

There is a train line that runs up and down the coast from Rimini, to Ravenna in the north and Ancona in the south, via any number of smaller resort towns.

By car

The A14, a six-lane motorway known as the autostrada del mare runs away to the north. The SS 72 heads inland towards San Marino.

Get around

Most hotels are within walking distance of the beach and the centre, but if you want to take a trip along the coast or inland, buses run regularly from the train station and are frequent and cheap.

See

• The Augustus Arch, a Roman arch built to celebrate the Roman emperor who lent it his name
• The Tiberius Bridge, the Roman bridge that marks the beginning of the Aemilian Way

Do

Lounge on the 15km of beaches. Known as La Marina, the beachfront is by far the number one reason anybody comes to Rimini. Yes, there is an old town, but this is generally ignored by most tourists.

Over winter, the whole place becomes a ghost town with a lot of shops shutting until the warm season starts up again.

Drink

The whole town is geared towards tourists, so there are bars and nightclubs everywhere. Once the sun goes down, the streets of Rimini come alive with lights, colour and noise as the sunbathers of the day become the revellers of the evening.
