About the Piedmont Region

 

Piedmont offers a mix of different cultures and traditions, wonderfully depicted in the local cuisine that inspired native Carlo Petrini to establish the Slow Food movement here in 1986. Dramatic landscapes of vineyards, hill towns with magnificent churches, and Baroque cities set against the backdrop of the Alps present countless opportunities for photography, relaxation and restful contemplation, especially after a great meal!
