Valle d'Aosta - The Aosta Valley in Italy - 4K Aerial Drone Video

Описание: http://www.atellani.com

The Aosta Valley (Italian: Valle d'Aosta is a mountainous autonomous region in northwestern Italy. It is bordered by Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France, to the west, Valais, Switzerland, to the north and by the Metropolitan City of Turin in the region of Piedmont, Italy, to the south and east.
Covering an area of 3,263 km2 (1,260 sq mi) and with a population of about 128,000 it is the smallest, least populous, and least densely populated region of Italy. It is the only Italian region that is not sub-divided into provinces (the province of Aosta was dissolved in 1945). Provincial administrative functions are provided by the regional government. The region is divided into 74 comuni.

Italian and French are the official languages, though much of the native population also speak Valdôtain, a dialect of Arpitan (Franco-Provençal), as their home language; about half of the population can speak all three languages.
The regional capital is Aosta.

In the Middle Ages, the Aosta Valley was a compulsory passage towards Alpine passes. Thus, toll collections were an important source of power and income. Since the Aosta Valley wasn't directly controlled by any authority, it was easy to take the land and appoint yourself as its lord; therefore, local nobles moved away from the towns, in search of land where they could extend their domains. Castles, towers and fortified houses arose on unaccessible elevations to dominate vast stretches of land from above.

In the Aosta Valley, first castles date back from the beginning of the XI century; often they were built on previous fortified settlements. They consisted in a square tower, or donjon, surrounded by walls. Typical examples of fortifications from the 11th and 12th century are Graines Castle in Brusson, the castle of Cly in Saint-Denis and Châtel-Argent castle in Villeneuve. Their chapels show the extreme simplicity of Romanesque religious architecture.

Cosmopolitan Breuil-Cervinia (2,050 m asl) is the undisputed ski capital. In fact the winter season lasts a long six months (the longest season in Aosta Valley) and in summer it is possible to ski on the Plateau Rosà glacier (3,500 m asl). Modern fast lift systems means ski connections also with Valtournenche and Zermatt (Switzerland) and these resorts make up the “Cervino Ski Paradise”, a snow paradise. The resort’s ski story started 80 years ago with the first cableway Cervinia-Plan Maison (inaugurated in 1936). The area was an already famous mountaineering hub from 1865 with the first ascent of the Matterhorn.

In Cervinia everything is in walking distance, including the lift systems and means you can leave your car in the garage during your stay. The town is made up of residential homes and modern hotels, many with wellness centres, offering guests relaxation and memorable moments. Numerous after ski ideas from shopping to pre-dinner drinks with tastes of local produce, Alpine Guide’s museum visits and dinner of local gastronomical fair in the many restaurants. Don’t miss summer; hiking, mountain biking, mountain huts and the Matterhorn reflecting in the famous blue lake.
