Villimpenta

The Tione River defines the setting of Villimpenta — across this flat stretch of the Po Valley, its waters have long supported the irrigated fields that shape local work and cuisine. In southeastern Lombardy, the town stands in the Mantuan plain, between the cultural spheres of Mantua and Verona rather than in the region’s Alpine north. Its medieval Castello Scaligero, with a moat and brick walls, gives the compact centre a historic focal point. Villimpenta is particularly associated with rice: the annual Festa del Riso alla Villimpentese turns that staple crop into a public celebration centred on rice dishes.
