Hi everyone! Today I want to show you a different side of Italy. When you think of Italy you probably think of pizza, the beach and warm weather. For the most part, this description of Italy is correct, but there is also a little part in northern Italy where there are no beaches and people's mother language is German. This little part is my home - South Tyrol - and if you enjoy nature and the mountains, you will definitely fall in love.
South Tyrol is a region of the mountains. It's suited in the Alps and the Dolomites and is famous all around the world. The Dolomites are also part of the UNESCO World Heritage. All our mountains are unique and a wonderful place to go hiking and explore nature. In winter we have a lot of snow and you can go skiing nearly everywhere. Being the first one on the slopes in the morning and breathing in the cold air makes you feel alive. Watching the sunrise or sunset on the mountains is a moment you will never forget. If you like traveling and you want to explore a place not a lot of people have been to, come to South Tyrol.
Not only is South Tyrol famous for its mountains and history, but the food is awesome too! South Tyrol mixes traditional Italian food with its own specialties. We have a lot of great pizzerias and the spaghetti is delicious. One example of a meal that you can only eat in South Tyrol is speck - tourists love it! Knödel and Kaiserschmarrn also make part of the South Tyrolian kitchen.
As you can see is South Tyrol a really unique and wonderful place. The history and the landscape of our home make us the people we are today!
