Italy Aoweiyatuo: the world's first "slow city"

Into a small town or the amount of time, but I still choose to take the cable car to the top of the mountain, and then take a small bus to the city hall. I'm going to see Stefano Mosio, the young mayor of this town, loyal supporters also slow food and slow motion. His predecessor, Stefano Simic is "slow city" launched one of those who signed the charter.

ORVIEDO is known as the most suitable for the land of idyllic beauty all over the world.ORVIEDO is known as the most suitable for the land of idyllic beauty all over the world.

From Rome to Aoweiyatuo (ORVIEDO), only need comfortable shook the last hours on the train, the car window is yellow and green fields, dotted with green trees and a row of silvery olive tree. Olivvia Tor first meet me is a 180 meters high, steep cliff. From the bottom up, you can see the town of the ancient city wall, built on a volcano rock at the top of the hill. Into a small town or the amount of time, but I still choose to take the cable car to the top of the mountain, and then take a small bus to the city hall. I'm going to see Stefano Mosio, the young mayor of this town, loyal supporters also slow food and slow motion. His predecessor, Stefano Simic is "slow city" launched one of those who signed the charter.

On the Aoweiyatuo, a first step means that the core area in the Middle Ages style restricted traffic, many of the streets in the city are walking street. The tour bus and taxi every year can bring 2000000 tourists here, but these vehicles can only enter a huge parking garage, hidden in a downtown park and Plaza, tourists directly into the downtown through the elevator hidden in the wall.

ORVIEDO night is local travel can not be ignored.Olivvia Tor night is local travel can not be ignored.

The streets to the Pacers, the square to the coffee shop, is one of the top target mayor Mosio. His achievements, can see from the town hall balcony, the quiet belongs only to walk and talk. The old lady always like in the alley and neighbors hum about, young business people can talk about good business with customers in the walk, visitors can neither fast nor slow to enjoy a cup of coffee and a panino sandwich in the outdoor table. In Olivvia Tor 20 years ago, although a quality suggestive of poetry or painting, but also the dilapidated, "as if inLan KeshanOn ". 20 years after ORVIEDO but not a decline and broken traces, such as "medieval air here interesting solidification". 20 years, can make a city rebuilt the two or three round, but slowItalyPeople have spent time and money much manpower to erase the city the dust on clothes, put the life back into the aging body do not change the basic appearance, this is called repair old as the old. If on this hand, the world no country

With the technical level of Italy than, the world no country in this respect more carefully than Italy. Along both sides of the street, the local craftsmen in the shop are lined up: do dolls, wood, pottery, painting and lace, there is always a worthy tourist. From the temptation of food store door, from an apartment window, there are cheese, olives and pie fragrance waft out. The birds flying around, from time to time from the tower and spire of the bird's nest in and out. I can not help but close your eyes, listen to people talk sounds, the birds mildly, and occasionally came from the church tower in the music......
