Riccione

The Roman bridge across the Rio Melo, August 2010 Riccione (; ) is a ''comune'' in the Province of Rimini, Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy.

Riccione is centred on the Rio Melo, a minor river that flows into the Adriatic Sea. In the decades following the construction of the Bologna–Ancona railway in 1861, Riccione grew substantially with the development of tourism and the construction of elegant villas in the Liberty Style. It became independent from the municipality of Rimini in 1922, and was further popularised after the Mussolini family bought a seaside villa for its summer holidays. As of 2023, Riccione had an estimated population of 34,514.

Riccione's economy is dependent on tourism, especially catering to young people and families. Provided by Wikipedia
