Moena: Lusia Piavac

Moena lies along the Avisio River in Val di Fassa, beneath the steep, pale rock faces and forested slopes of the Dolomites. This Trentino settlement stands where routes towards the San Pellegrino Pass and the upper Fassa Valley divide, giving it a longstanding role in travel through the mountains. Ladin culture remains central to local identity: Val di Fassa is one of the valleys where Ladin is traditionally spoken alongside Italian. In the centre, the parish church of San Vigilio and its bell tower provide a familiar landmark, while nearby roads lead towards high passes and mountain resorts.

Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol is renowned across Italy for the Dolomites, whose pale limestone massifs define much of its eastern skyline. This autonomous region follows the upper Adige basin, from vineyards and apple orchards around Bolzano to high valleys crossed by glaciers and Alpine passes. Its character is distinctly multilingual: Italian and German are official languages, while Ladin remains in use in several Dolomite valleys. Medieval castles, Tyrolean customs and Italian city life meet in a borderland historically connected with Tyrol.

Among the countries of southern Europe, Italy stands out for its Mediterranean coastline and cities marked by the legacy of ancient Rome. The Alps form its northern frontier, while the Apennines run down the peninsula and the Po crosses the broad plain of the north. Rome’s Colosseum and Roman Forum recall the ancient empire; Florence is closely associated with the Renaissance, and Venice is built across a lagoon on the Adriatic. Food changes markedly between regions, from olive-oil cooking in the south to rice dishes in the Po Valley. Sicily and Sardinia add distinct island identities to a country whose regions retain strong local character.
