Located only twenty minutes from Pescara, Chieti is a pleasantly provincial hillside town. A magnificent Gothic cathedral looms over the town, offering fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. The local Archaelogical Museum (Museo Nazionale Archeologico di Antichità ) is particularly intriguing. The museum is found in a villa surrounded by a park and contains various archaeological finds, such as Roman statues and tombs.
