Everybody goes to Venice, Florence, Pompei and Rome, so I will not cover them. But there are many more astounding places in Italy.
Disclaimer: I am an archeology bug, so I like mostly ancient ruins. The most amazing places I have seen in Italy are:
Paestum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paestum - don't miss the museum with amazing frescoes
Agrigento Temple Valley https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valle_dei_Templi , greek stuff, awesome
Cerveteri https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerveteri absolutely amazing Etruscan cemetery
Herculaneum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herculaneum
Napoli https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisi and the islands (Ischia, Capri) and the Vesuvio volcano - beware, Napoli is a bit rough, watch your wallet, same thing in Roma.
Ostia Antica https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostia_Antica
Bologna https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bologna with his medieval center and the Towers (no VERY ancient stuff here)
Ravenna https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravenna the Italian Bisantium
Ferrara https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrara rich of middleage history
Verona https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verona with its Arena (roman) and medieval center
Siena and its middle age palaces https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siena
Assisi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisi magic atmosphere with white houses and churches
Palermo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palermo and its main old palaces
I am aware of the beauty of Lucca, Lecce but I was never there.
