Staffarda Abbey, Saluzzo and the Po Valley – An Unforgettable Day Exploring

Elisabetta

It’s true, it’s true, here in Piedmont we do not have the sea, and in summer, I admit, we would like to very much. However, the name “Pied-mont” derives from its position “at the foot of the mountains“, and with the recent summer heat, having the mountains at your doorstep is certainly an appreciable…

Madama Palace & Acaja Castle: A Unique Castle-Palace with a Hidden Pearl

Elisabetta

In a cultural city like Turin, nothing is static, so even when it seems that you know perfectly a palace, a monument, a building, then, right at that moment, it will surprise you. The most central and therefore the most taken-for-granted monument in Turin is the Acaja Castle (or Madama Palace), in Castle Square…

Why Lake Viverone? Because it has everything!

Elisabetta

Lake Viverone – When I drive from Turin heading north, especially in this season, I am always fascinated by the spectacular landscape: the towering and impressive Alps with their peaks covered in snow down almost to their bases, amplifying the winter sunlight.
