Cultural Italy Blog: Art, Coffee & Love
DAY TRIP
Summer is visiting Milan and temperatures are as hot as the fashion. If you are in Milan and are looking for a cool place to relax after seeing the Duomo and shopping in via Montenapoleone, here is a good idea for you.
FOOD & WINE
There is no better place for a wine lover than Italy. The majority of us get used to think that Tuscany is the number-one destination for such purpose, while actually it is far not the only region capable to lift your spirits up while bringing down into your stomach some unique and extraordinary wine flavors. A visit of the Northern Piedmont with its picturesque hills and infinite number of vineyards will give you a proof that magic white and red elixirs along with a unique travel experience are all to be found there.
USI E COSTUMI
You know that in Italy people cannot speak without using their hands, right? And that sometimes no words are needed if you know how to properly use your fingers. Edited back in 1963 it is still having a great success and you can find it almost in any bookshop of Italy for a reasonable price of 11 euros. Anybody will be touched by this fascinating black-and-white edition, while you will gain the fame of a real expert of the Italian culture.
CULTURAL EVENT
This year Teatro Della Tosse events in Apricale will take place from August 5 to August 15. It will be the 21st edition of the "E le stelle stanno a guardare" (And the stars are watching) entitled “Le 9 Lune” (The 9 Moons): the 11 fascinating nights bringing hundreds of guests from all over the world to assist the happening.
DAY TRIPS & EXCURSION
For all the world’s foodies all roads sooner or later lead to Rome. Well, we all know that “bread and circuses” have always been in the Roma’s DNA. And these days are no exception. However, this summer is about to bring us something food-exceptional even for the high gastronomic standards of the Italian capital: over 400 meters of a very special “Riverside Market” (www.riversidemarket.it) made of national (as well as international) specialties, only-in-Italy street snacks and drinks, open-air restaurants, farmer's market and green home-made products.
ART EXHIBITION
