Trip to Val di Non
Friday, May 25, 2007
Went for day trip to the San Romedio Sanctuary and Canyon Rio Sass last weekend. Both places are within 90 minutes from Trento. The San Romedio Sanctuary housed one of the most important church in the Trentino region. It also has very interesting history and legends. The main church is very very old and very beautiful. Not grand beautiful like those famous churches but antique and serene beautiful. No pictures were allowed so I can only keep it in memory. We stopped for lunch at tranquil Lake Smeraldo and then walked towards the canyon. The entrance fee is 6€ and you get to wear a raincoat and a hard hat. The raincoat was not really necessary as there's not much water. Some parts of the canyon is quite narrow that I can barely walk straight through without turning to the side. What's amazing is the engineering of the suspended metal "floor" we get to walk on. Well, the rocks are great too but I can't really tell what's the difference. Hehe.
The scenery is so beautiful!
