Marling - Marlengo: Blick auf Meran

Marlengo stretches across the sunny slopes above the Adige Valley in South Tyrol, and that hillside position has made fruit growing and viticulture central to local life. The village stands just west of Merano, amid the broad valley through which the Adige flows, with Alpine slopes rising beyond the orchards. The Marlinger Waalweg follows a historic irrigation channel, part of the network that once directed water to cultivated land on the drier valley sides. Above the settlement, Lebenberg Castle, also known as Castel Monteleone, is a medieval complex and a prominent local landmark. Apple orchards, vineyards and wine estates still define Marlengo’s everyday character. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Marlengo and South Tyrol.

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.
