Vercelli, rice fields and Monte Rosa

Vercelli is the sixth city of Piedmont and the capital of Italian rice. The expanses of the rice fields that surround it resemble a huge gingham sea. Located at the center of a fertile, green plain rice is the most important agricultural market for which it is of particular importance at European level, and is crossed by & lt; strong>Sesia river that descends from the alpine ridge of Monte Rosa.

This particular environment, in which the light of the sky is reflected by creating plays of light, is populated with marsh birds such as herons and egretts. But the idyllic vision also has its price to pay. In addition to rice there are millions, if not billions, of mosquitoes live in Vercelli and therefore if you come here in the summer, provide yourself with a good mosquito repellent.

Immersed in autumn mists, this Piedmontese city welcomes you, surrounded by green rice fields. This cereal finds here the ideal soil for its growth and around Vercelli are concentrated a large number of companies that deal with the cultivation, processing and marketing of the rice. The extended fields have their own special charm, you have to put the car down and go on a bike or walk to fully enjoy its beauty and smells. In these perennially submerged lands, one gets lost thinking of being in the East instead of in Northern Italy.

Vercelli, among its rice fields, offers its visitors not only an artistic heritage rich in museums, churches and monuments, but also a fascinating nature made of parks, rivers and reserves that make it unique in its kind. The natural park of the Lame del Sesia covers a total of about 900 hectares, on a territory continuously modified by the flow of the water of the river: with the passing of the seasons, meanders, gravels, woods, ponds (the so-called 'blades') are created and disappear and are an ideal destination for birdwatchers.

Novara — the city in the countryside a stone's throw from Milan

Novara, the Broleto courtyard

If you visit Milan, you also think about passing from Novara, which is just 30 min by train from the Lombard capital. I would call Novara a small big city. It is the rather big city (out of curiosity I visited the page of Piedmont according to which Novara has almost 100,000 inhabitants), but at At the same time it is a very quiet and liveable city.

It is very pleasant to walk around its center where I always take my first steps. I love observing the details of the arcades of the nineteenth-century buildings, wandering around the delightful squares and alleys covered with cobblestone. I like to look at the shop windows that alternate with the ice cream shops and pastry shops that display the boxes with the biscuits of Novara.

My compulsory stop is the Basilica of San Gaudenzio with its characteristic dome pointing into the sky. The dome dominates the city and is clearly visible from many kilometers, especially when it is illuminated. When I return by train from Milan and I see it from afar, I already feel at home.

I really like the Broletto, the ancient seat of the Palazzo del Comune consisting of four buildings around a courtyard. It seems that from one moment to the next people of ladies and knights, even if I don't know what time, because the Palaces of Broleto come from different eras. In its courtyard is the well where in the fourteenth century the Novara threw various documents thinking of getting rid of taxes. Clever guys!

Another mandatory stop is Piazza delle Erbe surrounded by the columns of the suggestive arcades. Except it's really hard not to go through it when you're downtown. I like the fact that it's officially called Piazza del Cesare Battisti, but everyone continues to call it Piazza delle Erbe. Not far from the Piazza (to tell the truth all the interesting places are close) is Corso Cavour, one of the arteries of Novara overlooking elegant shops, some eighteenth-century palaces and the church of Monserrato.
