Sito storico
Abbazia di Sant'Eustachio a Nervesa della Battaglia
Nervesa della Battaglia (TV)
A medieval ruin set within the woods of the Montello, the Benedictine Abbazia di Sant'Eustachio (Abbey of Sant'Eustachio) is tied to the history of the galateo and to the figure of Giovanni della Casa, who stayed here in the sixteenth century. The site retains a melancholy charm between architecture and nature.
Borgo
Arquà Petrarca and the tradition of the Euganean hill village
Arquà Petrarca (PD)
Medieval village in the Euganean Hills, known for having hosted the poet Petrarca's final years, an established cycling stage with picturesque hillside views.
Prodotto tipico
Asparago Bianco di Cimadolmo IGP
Cimadolmo (TV)
A niche fruit and vegetable product grown along the banks of the Piave, prized since antiquity for its sweetness and tenderness. It represents a little-known agricultural excellence of the Treviso area, rarely found beyond its production zone.
Frazione
Borghetto sul Mincio
Valeggio sul Mincio (VR)
A medieval hamlet of Valeggio sul Mincio built around Scaligero fortifications, with houses on the water and mills still visible along the Mincio river.
Mestiere
Botteghe delle maschere in cartapesta di Venezia
Venezia (VE)
Small Venetian ateliers where artisans hand down the art of the papier-mâché mask, a craft bound to the Carnival tradition and the theatrical culture of the Serenissima. Visiting them means witnessing, first hand, a centuries-old process still practised in the calli.
Cammino
Cammino Fogazzaro-Roi
Valdagno (VI)
A walking itinerary retracing the places linked to the writer Antonio Fogazzaro through the Vicenza valleys, among villages, villas and hillside landscapes little touched by mass tourism.
