10 things you should do in Pellestrina once in a lifetime

Versione Italiana
  1. CONTEMPLATE A SUNSET: It’s one of the most beautiful experiences you can live in Pellestrina; it’s wonderful to wait for this special moment of the day, sitting on the wall in front of lagoon, staring sun while reflects and seems plunge into water framed by euganean hills . All it’s quiet, silent while magic grows.

  2. WALKING ALONG “MURAZZI”: it’s true, you should walk for 11km, but you will feel plenty of healthy air and beautiful landscapes. It’s marvellous watching to sea trying to reach lagoon. It’s one of the points in which these two elements are so closer than in the rest of the town. (NOW IT’S FORBIDDEN WALKING ON THE TOP OF MURAZZI)

  3. CHATTING WITH FISHERMANS: you will hear great stories about sea, fishing and island story, directly from the voice of the locals, but it’s better to find someone that should translate faithfully the peolple’s genuine words.
  4. LISTEN TO THE SOUND OF SILENCE: one of the several distinctive tracts of this place it’s the sound of silence; here you can barely hear Motors or annoying background noises like in the city. It’s a brilliant example of a place in which experience deep contemplation and the true integration balanced with nature and environment of daily routine.

  5. GETTING SCARED IN FRONT OF THE HOUSE NUMBER 666 AND THEN LAUGH ON IT: one of the houses in this picture is the 666 one, if you believe in numerology or kabbala you must see this place.

  6. TASTING LOCAL FOOD AND GET SOME “BUSSOLAI” HOME: there are many restaurants, bars and even ice cream parlour, but the biggest temptation are “Bussolai” that are just like oval breadsticks, you’ll love them! But don’t miss local food, should be a big mistake. 
  7. VISIT THE VIRGINS MARY’S APPARITION TEMPLE: Faith is true and strong here, there are many churches but the most important is dedicated to the “Virgin Mary Apparition” that was built in memory of the Apparition to a fifteen boy called “Natalino Scarpa dei Muti” in 1716.
