Traveling through the grape fields - Lush green scenery of Piemonte in northern Italy
#Hiking route recommendation #Overseas travel
When everyone is thinking about going to Tuscany to find beautiful pastoral scenery☘️, they forget that the land of Piemonte is also very fascinating. 💛The fields and vineyards here are also on the World Cultural Heritage List.
I started from Alba that day. Walking up the nearby hill, I could see the endless scenery of the grape fields. The neat and orderly lines without crisscrossing were very beautiful!
In addition to the vineyards, you can also see a panoramic view of the town of Alba from the mountain. I happened to meet a local on the way up the mountain that day, and he told me some things about Alba.
He said that because the Ferrero Rocher chocolate factory is in Alba, there will be bursts of chocolate aroma every morning🤤. Behind the red brick houses is a row of silver-gray factory buildings 👀, which is the Ferraro Rocher chocolate factory. People who live in Alba are so lucky~

One night stay at Vincafe in Alba
#7月好去处2025
During this trip to Alba, I chose Vincafe to stay for one night. Vincafe combines value, comfort and convenience, romantic style and provides a variety of service facilities for tourists. Since it is mainly a restaurant, there are not many rooms in the B&B, which is relatively convenient for dining. The breakfast included in the accommodation is really delicious!
The rooms are equipped with air conditioning facilities, a small bar and a refrigerator. You can also use Vincafe's Internet to surf the Internet at any time; mineral water is not available in stock, which is a big benefit for tourists who are not used to drinking tap water in Italy.
Vincafe is close to most of the famous landmarks in Alba, such as Chiesa di San Domenico and Palazzo Comunale. Vincafe is really convenient and is an excellent accommodation choice for tourists. If you want to go to Enoclub and Voglia di Vino Locanda, two popular wine bars and restaurants in Alba at night, they are not far from Vincafe.
The wine city Alba 🇮🇹

On top of being a beautiful city, Alba hides Medieval treasures and his reputed for excellent local food & wine. Alba is a great city to visit and offer the complete Italian experience.
The town is famous for its white truffle and wine production. The confectionery group Ferrero is based there. The city joined the UNESCO Creative Cities Network in October 2017. The Cathedral of Alba.
Highly recommend at least one day in the city of Alba, which is about an hour's train ride from the larger city of Turin (Torino, in Italian). Narrowing down the options during your stay isn't easy; I recently spent 4 full days in Alba and could have stayed 4 more weeks.
As for the history, Alba was officially incorporated in 1968 and began operations in 1971 with an annual capacity of 120,000 metric tonnes per year. After modernisation and expansion works the smelter's capacity rose to 450,000 tonnes in 1992.
