The hardly known province of Allessandria is just one hour from Milan, Turin and Genoa. Its impressive landscape reaches up to the Appennins. It is a region of castles telling stories from the past Renaissance and medieval times; with natural beauties like the national park of Capanne di Marcarolo; with fine foods and traditional cooking made from mushrooms and truffles of the region. The valley of Val Lemme is a wine-growing district with well known DOC: wines like the Cortese di Gavi. There are several wineries in the region that can be visited to taste their wines. Just a few miles away you can savour a thermal bath Acqui Terme, well known for its therapeutic hot springs since the roman times. Just a day trip away one can visit the interesting cities of Genoa, Milan, Allessandria, Pavia and Tortona.
