On this tour you don't see major attractions: you immerse yourself in a Little World of the Past.
Like in a time journey, a few miles away from Verona city, you are exposed to the miniature of the Low Lands.
Here a variety of rice is grown: the Vialone Nano, the king of rices for
risotto.
It is a privilege for discerning travelers and foodies to be in a kind of digital and geographical remoteness, dominated by silence in the non-extensive, typically Italian puzzle of little estates.
The lanscape is spotted by ancient rice-mills and villas.
Water is everywhere: karst springs and channels are like veins nurturing the countryside the paddy fields.
Green and yellow are the colors.
