Places to see in ( Bolzano - Italy )
Bolzano is a city in the South Tyrol province of north Italy, set in a valley amid hilly vineyards. It's a gateway to the Dolomites mountain range in the Italian Alps. In the medieval city center, the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology features the Neolithic mummy called Ötzi the Iceman. Nearby is the imposing 13th-century Mareccio Castle, and the Duomo di Bolzano cathedral with its Romanesque and Gothic architecture.
Bolzano, the provincial capital of South Tyrol (known within the province as Südtirol, or in Italy as Alto Adige), is anything but provincial. Once a stop on the coach route between Italy and the flourishing Austro-Hungarian Empire, this small city is worldly and engaged, a long-time conduit between cultures. Its quality of life – one of the highest in Italy – is reflected in its openness, youthful energy and an all-pervading greenness. A stage-set-pretty backdrop of grassy, rotund hills sets off rows of pastel-painted townhouses, while bicycles ply riverside paths and wooden market stalls are laid out with Alpine cheese, speck (cured ham) and dark, seeded loaves. German may be the first language of 95% of the region, but Bolzano is an anomaly. Today its Italian-speaking majority – a legacy of Mussolini's brutal Italianisation program of the 1920s and the more recent siren call of education and employment opportunities – looks both north and south for inspiration.
Bolzano is the capital city of South Tyrol, the German speaking region in the northern part of Italy. Bolzano is the largest city in the region. Its archaeology museum is famous worldwide as the home of the alpine iceman Ötzi. It is also known as the Italian Capital of Christmas thanks to its characteristic Christmas market.
The city is administratively composed of 5 districts with a district mayor and council. These are:
City Centre - Bozner Boden/Piani di Bolzano-Rentsch/Rencio
Oberau/Oltrisarco-Haslach/Aslago
Europa-Neustift/Novacella
Don Bosco
Gries-St.Quirein/San Quirino
Bolzano has been a trading point since its foundation owing to its location between the two major cities of Venice and Augsburg. In 1262 it was elevated to a Stadt (city). In 1363 Bolzano became part of the Habsburg monarchy as part of the county of Tyrol. Four times a year a market was held and traders came from the south and the north. The mercantile magistrate was therefore founded in 1635. Every market season two Italian and two German officers (appointed from the traders who operated there) held this office. The city was a cultural crossroads at that time.
Bolzano has many special features: it's an Italian city with Austrian flair. In the city centre you will mostly hear people speak German or Austro-Bavarian. Nowadays, however, Italian- and German-speaking people are living together in bilingual Bolzano. Generally Bozner or Bolzanini are friendly and helpful. Most German-speaking people can speak Italian but Italian-speaking people are unlikely to be able to speak German. Nevertheless many young people can also speak English and a few can speak French too. In South Tyrolean schools the learning of the second language (Italian for German-speakers and vice-versa) and of English is compulsory.

Pordenone a Si Viaggiare su Rai 2
La Rai ritorna a Pordenone, ecco la replica della rubrica: Si Viaggiare
Pordenone, Pordenon in dialetto pordenonese della lingua veneta, in friulano standard ed in friulano occidentale, Portenau in tedesco è un comune italiano di 51 156 abitanti del Friuli - Venezia Giulia.
In base alla legge regionale 26/2014 Riordino del sistema Regione – Autonomie locali del Friuli - Venezia Giulia Pordenone è sede della UTI del Noncello, di cui fa parte assieme ai comuni di Cordenons, Fontanafredda, Porcia, Roveredo in Piano, San Quirino e Zoppola.

È la principale città del Friuli occidentale (o destra Tagliamento). Si trova lungo le sponde del fiume Noncello, il cui breve decorso confluisce poco oltre nel fiume Meduna, principale affluente del Livenza.

Ischia Porto e Ponte di notte
Church of Saint Francis, Cortona, Arezzo, Tuscany, Italy, Europe
San Francesco is a 13th-century, Roman Catholic church located on via Berrettini in Cortona, region of Tuscany, Italy. Built in 1245, the church has the typical Franciscan pattern: a large nave ending in an apse with a groin vault, flanked by two smaller side-chapels also with groin vaults. The facade holds a lancet-arched main doorway with three small columns in a recess, and a large circular window set above. In the apse are the mouldings of the partially walled Gothic windows. On the left the eastern wing of the cloister is visible, where there are two windows, now filled with masonry, and an arched doorway belonging to the Chapter House. Inside can be seen some distinguished artworks, including the Nativity of Raffaello Vanni, the Annunciation by Pietro da Cortona, St. Anthony of Padua and the miracle of the mule by Cigoli (1597), and the Virgin in glory among the saints by Ciro Ferri. In the Convent of the Conventual Franciscan Friars are carefully preserved some relics of St. Francis of Assisi, namely a habit, a finely embroidered cushion on which the dying saint laid his head, and also a book of the Gospel. Also in this church is a preserved fragment of the Holy Cross, in a reliquary of Byzantine work in ivory and silver. It was brought from Constantinople to Cortona by Friar Elia Coppi, whom San Francesco named as his mother and a father for the other brothers, the successor to the leadership of the Conventual Franciscan Friars. P. Eugen Rachiteanu governed the church and the convent together with two other monks from the Conventual Franciscan Province of Romania.
