The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing. Costa Smeralda is often described as paradise on earth, with stunning beaches like Spiaggia di Tuerredda, Cala Goloritzé, and Spiaggia di Porto Giunco perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound.

For an unforgettable natural wonder, venture into the Frecce delle grotte srl and Neptune's Grotto, stunning sea caves accessible by boat or stairs carved into cliffs.Sardinia is also home to a unique ancient civilization. Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

With a dry Mediterranean climate and scenery that often feels more Greek than Italian, Puglia is famed for its beaches in Salento, crystal-clear waters, and charming seaside towns. One of its most iconic sights is the fairytale-like trulli houses of Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This region is also a food lover's paradise, offering specialties like Orecchiette pasta with turnip greens, the classic Fave e Cicoria (fava bean purée with wild chicory), and fresh seafood paired with crisp vegetables.

Among its most intriguing destinations are the ghost town of Craco and the ancient cave city of Matera, both steeped in history and cinematic charm. Other towns worth visiting include Maratea and Palombaroa, each offering its own cultural and scenic appeal.Tourissimo Tip–Matera is magical! https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/destination-highlight-matera-the-city-of-stonesThe region is rich in historical and religious landmarks, such as the Crypt of Original Sin with its remarkable frescoes, and the medieval Melfi Castle. Don't miss the towering Statue of Christ the Redeemer in Maratea, a striking monument that overlooks the Tyrrhenian coast.For a taste of local flavor, try Peperoni Cruschi—crispy, sun-dried peppers that are a beloved regional delicacy. Basilicata is also known for its exceptional wines, especially the bold, full-bodied reds of Aglianico del Vulture DOC, made primarily from the Aglianico grape. White wine lovers will appreciate the region's Greco di Tufo and Fiano varietals as well. Basilicata also has a total of 14 one-star Michelin restaurants. Adventurers can experience an adrenaline rush on The Angel's Flight, a giant zip line that offers stunning views and a thrilling ride through the Lucanian landscape.SicilySicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, is a world of its own, offering a diverse landscape of coastlines, mountains, and magical towns such as Cefalù, Palermo, Taormina, Catania, Noto, Agrigento, and Syracuse. Palermo serves as the cultural and diplomatic capital of the region, while Catania stands as its business hub.A volcanic island and UNESCO World Heritage Site, Sicily boasts a rich collection of cultural and natural treasures. Highlights include the awe-inspiring Valley of the Temples, the active volcano Mount Etna, the stunning Duomo di Cefalù, and the picturesque islands of Stromboli, Bella, and Ortigia. The region is also home to the renowned Baroque Triangle in the Val di Noto region of southeastern Sicily, where the eight towns of Caltagirone, Militello Val di Catania, Catania, Modica, Noto, Palazzolo Acreide, Ragusa, and Scicli have been recognized by UNESCO for their outstanding examples of late Baroque architecture.Sicily's culinary scene is just as impressive. Indulge in traditional Sicilian cannoli, filled with sheep's milk ricotta cheese and always stuffed fresh to order. Take a street food tour to savor local favorites like arancini, and don't miss sipping on a glass of Nero d'Avola, one of Sicily's most famous wines. The region is also internationally celebrated for its top-tier agriculture and winemaking.For a taste of authentic Italian charm beyond the tourist trail, explore the towns featured in I Borghi Più Belli d'Italia—Italy's list of its most beautiful hidden gems. Tourissimo Tip–This is a great tip for all 20 regions of Italy. Find out more here: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/the-most-beautiful-small-towns-in-italyFood lovers will be delighted to know that Sicily is also home to 23 Michelin-starred restaurants, including three two-star establishments and twenty with one star.Tourissimo Tip–If you visit Corleone, you should definitely learn about the legacy of the Mafia. We in North America tend to have a romanticized view of the mafia, but for the locals, the history is more brutal. See some photos and learn more here: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/letizia-battaglia-groundbreaking-photojournalist-who-fearlessly-documented-the-mafia-in-her-native-sicilySardiniaSardinia, the second-largest island in the Mediterranean after Sicily, is a rugged, rural paradise known for its natural beauty, deep-rooted traditions, and ancient history. The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing. Costa Smeralda is often described as paradise on earth, with stunning beaches like Spiaggia di Tuerredda, Cala Goloritzé, and Spiaggia di Porto Giunco perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound. Must-see sites include the Nora Archaeological Park, Bastione di Saint Remy, Parco Archeologico Naturalistico di Santa Cristina, and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Cagliari. For an unforgettable natural wonder, venture into the Frecce delle grotte srl and Neptune's Grotto, stunning sea caves accessible by boat or stairs carved into cliffs.Sardinia is also home to a unique ancient civilization. Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

24 DE JULIO - SANTA CRISTINA, MÁRTIR

Josep Rull és el primer president del Parlament de Catalunya que gaudeix de la processó de la diada del 24 de juliol.

Conheça a história de Santa Cristina. Somos chamados a ser a presença do Ressuscitado no mundo, na vida de cada pessoa. Não sendo indiferente às dores da humanidade, mas, indo ao seu encontro, o Ressuscitado se deixa encontrar. A ele somos chamados a nos configurar! A ir ao encontro de Jesus, que se apresenta encarnado-abandonado em cada sofredor. O mundo precisa ser palco do fabuloso encontro entre o Ressuscitado e o Abandonado. Os Santos, cada um a seu modo, nos indicam pistas preciosas de como podemos nos tornar, pela graça, o Ressuscitado de que tem sede o coração de cada ser humano. Aprendamos a ser resposta com aqueles que foram respostas luminosas diante do mundo. De fato, os Santos são sinais da presença do Ressuscitado na história!

Marco Valsesia"La vita segreta delle api"Longanesi Editorehttps://longanesi.it«Le api sono l'unico essere vivente del pianeta che è stato in grado di lasciarsi 'addomesticare' dall'uomo, continuando a mantenere praticamente intatto il proprio istinto selvatico. Non è un primato eccezionale?»Vivono appena quaranta giorni ma il loro contributo alla vita sulla Terra è fondamentale. Gli antichi credevano che le api avessero un collegamento diretto con il sole e non è un caso che fossero nelle insegne del Faraone d'Egitto. Ma quando Marco si è avvicinato per la prima volta a un'arnia –con gli occhi affamati anche del più minuto gesto compiuto dal nonno apicoltore – queste cose non le sapeva, sono arrivate solo con il tempo. Prima, subito, c'è stato il profumo di miele e cera, che è entrato nel cuore e non se ne è più andato. Gli anni hanno trasformato quel colpo di fulmine in una passione e un lavoro fatti di pazienza, amore e rispetto per la natura – un mestiere antico, ormai minacciato dalle condizioni ambientali e climatiche.Marco Valsesia oggi gestisce una sessantina di arnie, alleva api regine e usa i social per raccontare a quante più persone possibili come funziona un alveare, straordinario «superorganismo» vivente. Nel suo primo libro, sorprendente taccuino di un giovane naturalista, ricco di notizie e poesia, traccia un ritratto di prima mano della «vita segreta» delle api ma anche della loro vita «sociale», che potremmo definire di relazione con l'essere umano. Queste pagine sono una vera scatola delle meraviglie da cui emerge una intensa e commovente riflessione filosofica ed ecologista sulle api, la natura e il ruolo che l'uomo dovrebbe – e potrebbe – svolgere nel salvaguardare un mondo che sta lentamente, inesorabilmente scomparendo.Marco Valsesia (Borgomanero, 1992) ha studiato come perito meccanico e attualmente lavora in un'azienda aeronautica di Sesto Calende. Ha ereditato dal nonno la passione per le api e fin da bambino ha esplorato i segreti di una specie fondamentale per la vita sulla Terra. Da qualche anno affianca al proprio impiego l'antico mestiere di apicoltore e a Santa Cristina, il piccolo paese del Piemonte orientale dove abita, cura oltre 60 operosissime arnie. Sul suo profilo Twitter (@marco_valsesia) migliaia di follower seguono le imprese dei suoi alveari, che durante la stagione vengono spostati in diversi luoghi per seguire il flusso delle fioriture.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.itQuesto show fa parte del network Spreaker Prime.

El martirio de Santa Cristina, en la Basílica de San Juan y San Pablo. Hoy, lunes 24 de julio, la Iglesia Católica, la Ortodoxa y la Anglicana conmemoran a Santa Cristina de Bolsena, pueblo de la región de Toscana de donde procedía

24 DE JULIO - SANTA CRISTINA, VIRGEN Y MÁRTIR

The Giro made its way towards Aprica for what many have dubbed this year's Queen Stage. Having set out from the western shore of Lake Garda, the peloton would scale the Mortirolo & the Valico di Santa Cristina - to name just two of the climbs on today's route - before finishing in Aprica, the scene of many a famous Giro exploit.  We hear from Valerio Piva, who helped steer Jan Hirt to a surprise stage win, & Pavel Sivakov, who helped steer Richard Carapaz through a stage that solidified his position in the maglia rosa. There's also talk of citrons, Sforzato, pizzoccheri & - again - of local hero the Trout of Gavardo.
