Discovering Indagini e Misteri

Indagini e Misteri is a travel and culture blog, a diary for sharing our studies on history, art and past civilizations. Every investigation begins with mystery, with the desire to reveal what is still unknown. The study of symbols, rituals and myths, of the artifacts that have come down to us opens the doors of knowledge, allows us to discover thoughts and cultural frames of people before us, tells about places and events, invites us to look beyond the boundary. We hope to convey the spirit of discovery that leads our steps!
