Driving Directions San Marino
SAN MARINO is a tiny landlocked republic in central Italy, lying in the Apennine Mountain’s eastern foothills. It is one of two small, independent enclaves (the Vatican City being the other), surrounded by Italy’s country, which had survived from the time when the region consisted of autonomous city-states. Given Italy’s turbulent history and the fact that the larger, more powerful states tended to swallow up the smaller ones, San Marino’s survival is truly remarkable.
