Italy
The Dolomites
The Dolomites in Northern Italy form a part of the Southern Limestone Alps. Also known as the Pale Mountains,they take their name from the carbonate rock dolomite, itself named after 18th-century French mineralogist Déodat Gratet de Dolomieu (1750–1801), who was the first to describe the mineral. Amazing views can be had from the top of these mountains.
