The Discoverplaces team attended an interesting afternoon in Paliano to discover the exceptional initiatives aimed at promoting and upgrading our towns through hotels and widespread hospitality; make a tourist feel at home, give him emotions and make him live experiences that will remain etched in their memories.
 

In the archaeological museum of Artena, a magical presentation was held to introduce the book by Vittorio Aimati telling the story of this city, once called Montefortino, from the unity of Italy until the second after the second world war.

This is the 14th publication by Vittorio on Artena, a city he loves deeply. The presentation was a real performance enlivened by musicians and poetry. To complete the evening, passages of the book were interpreted by the author and by an actor with a evocative background music.

At the splendid setting of Villalago in the Park Hotel, right on the shores of Lake Scanno, Discoverplaces.travel was invited to a two-day deliberation on sustainability and promotion of small towns.

Even in Abruzzo, the green heart of Europe and the region where the first National Park was born, the phenomenon of depopulation of small towns has reinforced the strong need to enhance tourism in the local economy.

The Discoverplaces.travel model adapts perfectly to this situation and can help to create connections with the III and IV generation of emigrants abroad, as well as with experiential tourists. In Abruzzo there are about 1.5 million registered emigrants and as many millions of descendants from these emigrants, and it is these descendants who would like to visit their region of origin.

The two day of meetings was organized by the Ambiente e/è Vita association, recognized by the Ministry of the Environment, which manages 5 regional parks in Abruzzo.
