As every year, this month takes place in the Tuscia area the chestnut festival, that involves many people and many villages located in the surrounding area.

During the roman period the Tuscia, was a residential territory, chosen by rich roman people to built their houses.

In fact with a really rich soil, plenty of water and mild climate Tuscia became a vacation place where to go.

Naturally this type of climate is still the same and for that reason we have every year 2 important rendezvous: wine’s festival, during summer time and now autumn’s time the chestnut festival.

Really we can talk about a gastronomic trip, a journey inside the specialities and the flavours of Lazio’s countryside. And I will keep that in my for my future blogs.

In particular way there are some special municipality protagonist of: Capenina, Caprarola, Carbognano, Latera, Soriano nel Cimino, Vallerano.

In these villages it’s possible to taste the real chestnut, big, white, gluttonous grilled or boiled.

Close your eyes and try to imagine the scene.

Imagine yourself walking the tortoise medieval street, imagine a little slope to climb, feel on your skin a soft jumper, the first cold air itching the nose, smell now all around, chestnut sweet flavour mixed with the one stronger of roosted met , imagine your self in the middle of traditions old centuries. Tell me now, do you wish to be there with me, don’t you?

My last suggestion when you will come to visit my beloved Eternal City is to book a place in a nice and cozy hotel in the city center, strategically close to main railroad station-Termini- Lucci Hotel, the place where I work! We will definitely plan a trip to Tuscia together!
