All for Asparagus! |
Bologna, Emilia - Romagna Italy +39 51 87 1323 / +39 51 87 1116 |
Did you know that a small town outside of Bologna, called Altedo, grew the best asparagus in the world? And what's interesting, is that there is a ten-day fair dedicated to the vegetable organized every year. The fair includes concerts, poetry readings, sports competitions, gourmet tasting, art exhibitions and what not! Have some fun...in the name of 'asparagus'. Review © 2007, Wcities |
