“When we talk about Emilia-Romagna we usually think of cities of art, food and wine culture, at the sea, but there is also a hinterland that winds between hills and mountains and tells extraordinary stories that relive through dozens of ancient paths”-underline the president of the Emilia-Romagna region Michele De Pascale and the councilor for tourism Roberta Frisoni.
“This precious tourism promotion work highlights Less known placesbut equally rich in charm, like countries that keep the memory of the past And Protected natural reservesin some of which entry to man is prohibited to preserve the ecosystem “.
“Don’t cross a territory, but immerse yourself In a territory, to be a little less tourists and a little more complicit – he explains Federico Taddia.
I think this is the strength of the paths: step by step is built a sense of belonging towards the landscapes, communities and everyday life that meet. And that’s what we told – and lived – with our videos: Passion, care and enhancement of itineraries that represent the many nuances of a region that can make slowness a precious resource “.
