is a magnet for visitors, but sometimes they struggle to escape its pull.

northern Spain's popular Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route, but with less
emphasis on arduous activity.

they offer.

One of the five routes, the Via Francigena, is a medieval
walking trail that extends from Canterbury, through France and Switzerland, to
Rome, and then onward to Jerusalem.
五條路線之一的Via Francigena是一條地中海步行的道路，由坎特伯雷（英國）到法國與瑞士，再到羅馬，再向上到耶路撒冷。
Meaning "Frankish route", it was
once followed by archbishops traveling to the Eternal City to receive papal
blessings and paperwork, as well as ordinary religious pilgrims.
所謂的「法蘭克路線」，這條路線曾經是總主教們和一般虔城的朝聖者前往不朽之城（羅馬）的路徑，而他們的旅途目的為了要得到羅馬教皇的祝福還有進行一些正式文件的申請。
Though it fell out of favor compared with the pilgrimage route
to the city of Santiago de Compostela in northwest Spain, parts of the Via
Francigena have survived until the present day.
雖然這路線與西班牙北部的熱門聖地牙哥朝聖之路相比，已經不再熱門，但部分的Via Francigena這條路線仍然保存至今。

whole Italian section of the route.
