Ancona owes its name to the special elbow shape ("ankon" in Greek) of the promontory on which it was founded
As is the case with many coastal cities, Ancona's history is intimately linked to that of its port
Ancona revolves around its port, with its significant commercial wealth and tourism: it is the departure point for most of the ships going to Greece

Ancona reveals its beauty as you float away from the port by boat: indeed, the charm of its buildings perched on the headland can be seen from the sea.
