Bolzano - Bozen - Enrico Massetti - Bog

2019 edition"For me, Bolzano - Bozen is a mountain transformed into a city. The moment you move, it changes appearance. You edge forward and the profile is different, you go back and discover new faces. It speaks different languages. At its heart, it is an actor, enchanting and contradictory, haughty an alluring, warm hearted and chilly." - R. MessnerAt the Crossroads of CultureBolzano - Bozen, the only city in the world with both a competition in honor of F. Busoni and a house where Mozart slept. An elegant salon where different people meet, an exchange of cultures, music, and performances.The central Piazza Walther named for the troubadour Walther von der Vogelweide, one street named for Dante and another for Goethe; a conservatory carrying the name of Monteverdi an Orchestra of Haydn. A trilingual University, and an Academy of Design and a Film School both bilingual. This is what makes Bolzano - Bozen a little big capital of European atmosphere!Bolzano - Bozen: The Gateway to the DolomitesBolzano - Bozen lies 265 m above sea level along one of the most important routes running from the Mediterranean to the North Sea, connecting North and South.
