Rimini is a resort town in Emilia-Romagna, on Italy's east coast. Rimini is a thriving, bustling resort on the Italian Riviera that boasts "over a thousand hotels". It is one of the least pretentious towns in Italy. This is a place where the Italians, Germans and Russians go for their sea and sun, and therefore the food is excellent as well as the people being friendly and helpful.
