Ancona is an Italian town of almost 100,000 inhabitants, the capital of the province of the same name and of the Marche region. Overlooking the Adriatic Sea, it stands on a promontory in the shape of a bent elbow, which gives rise to a gulf and protects the large natural harbor, one of the largest in Italy for international passenger traffic. It is one of the main economic centers of the region, as well as its main urban center in terms of size and population.
The city extends over numerous hills, overlooking the sea in the eastern sector of the promontory. The high coast of the city is part of the Conero Riviera and falls within the Conero Park.
Ancona is a typical polycentric city, given that there are four central squares: Piazza del Papa, the heart of the oldest districts; Piazza del Teatro, the meeting point between the center and the port; Piazza Roma, the center of the indoor and outdoor market area; Piazza Cavour, the largest and most tree-lined, center of the nineteenth-century districts. The last three squares are joined by a trident of parallel courses: corso Mazzini (old course), corso Garibaldi (new course) and corso Stamira; are the main courses and the commercial area between them is known as the "Spina dei corsi".
View of the Colle Guasco of Ancona from the port
Characteristic is the presence of a road axis that crosses the whole promontory from west to east, called "from sea to sea": from the docks of the port to the lookout on the cliffs of the Passetto.

Ancona airport is not in conflict, Ancona town scenery very probably is in conflict.
