I have lived in Bolzano since I was born and so have my parents. After so many years I still stop to admire certain beauties that never get boring!

I was born in the USA (Chicago) but I would like to live in this area and think I would feel right at home. I'm a recent Italian citizen and my mother is a recent Austrian citizen. Hopefully we'll fit in somehow! I work as a computer engineer so hopefully I can find that line of work here.

Ay thank you for reminding me of the perks of where I grew up and giving me a bit of a nostalgia moment, as I moved away some years ago! Keep up the good work, this is amazing content 🍀

Hi Philip, I visited Bolzano a few years ago, largely because I have always been fascinated by the duality of the Italian and Austrian cultures living there in (relative) harmony. I must say it really is a lovely region with stunning landscapes and kind people. I find it a shame that many tourists forgo this region.

Thanks for this very nice reportage, it’s always a delight to see tourists from other countries stopping by other routes than Rome-Florence-Venice! Next time come visit Sterzing-Vipiteno: it’s a little medieval town surrounded by great mountain paths and ski resorts, with one of the best Weichnachtmarkts in the region :)

I'm watching your videos for qite awhile and I feel very proud that you visited my region. I generally think that Südtirol is very beautiful. But as a "Südtiroler" I would visit other places than Bozen 😂 (Meran the spa Town, Sterzing has a very nice chrismas Market, or go hiking in the Pustertal, visit the Drei Zinnen, enjoy the beatiful landscape and nature.

If you’re visiting in autumn, you also have to try the Kastanienherzen. It’s chestnut paste vovered by dark chocolate and topped off with some whipped cream. South Tyrol is the only place where you can get some.

I can't wait to visit someday. My grandfather was born in Fondo about 35 mins away, and I would love to see this beautiful region.

Thank you for this video. We recently found your channel and planning a trip next year to Germany and Italy. My wife’s family (and last name) come from Bolzano and can’t wait to visit.

Hi Wolter, you might it find to be interesting that the roofed sections of the Laubengasse (portici) in ancient times actually had the function of an exhibition space. So part of the shops used to be outside of the buildings, when the goods where stored on the inside. People instead had to walk in the middle of the alley though rain and snow 🥶🥶

I know this video is mainly about Bolzano, but I would also say don't skip out on visiting Merano, it's a really nice city, not as big as Bolzano, but very beautiful! The gardens of Trauttmannsdorff near the city are also very pretty during spring time and definitely worth a visit!

Awesome video

Thanks for this video! We are just back from South Tyrol,twice a year we need the fix and drive down south. Each time we plan a vacation in a different valley to see as much as possible. One tip from my side....do not drive down to Bozen on a rainy or cloudy day during your vacation...all tourists will have the same idea;) Another bonus...try to take the public transport as much as possible This will save you a lot of headaches trying to find a parking spot downtown. Another plus...just south of Bozen the Strada del Vino,the wine street,starts. Lots of vineyard to choose from and each will let you taste their selection

Grande Mark! L'Italia TI AMA!

I'd like to add that people from South Tyrol are the best hosts: kind and friendly. I live in Varese but I go on holiday there twice a year, I love the landscapes, the scenery is literally breathtaking. Seiser Alm and Drei Zinnen, Karersee and the towns, Bozen, Meran, Sterzing, Bruneck are marvellous.

Really nice video and suggestions! Just one thing, about beer: I live here but me and my friends never drink Forst. I definitely prefer the craft beer from Chiusa - Klausen, probably my favorite one; they have an amazing dark beer or some really really good special beers in the seasons. Talking about the Italian beers, also in the big distributions (supermarkets), I would suggest the Ichnusa from Sardegna, maybe the unfiltered one; the Theresianer from Trieste (the IPA guys); the Moretti, also from Friuli, ofc in glass ;D For the ones who like aperitivo or drinks, take a look at Laurin Hotel, close to the train station, lovely location and serious cocktails, whiskies, etc; with a jazz live music programme too. I generally avoid pizza in Bolzano, but there are a couple of worth (but relatively expensive) pizzerie: "Cantuccio" or "Il Corso".

I saw your footage. I have to compliment the description of my city. A city, small on a human scale, dedicated to tourism that has welcomed you with its specificities and its beauties. You who come to visit, welcomed by our. sympathy you are our best tourist card in the world. A warm greeting also to your family.

I'm an italian girl from Milano. Every year i go to Bolzano and Dolomiti. For me, these are beat places of the world (i have visited many countries). Bolzano is very nice, but listen to Wolter: don't stay just in Bolazano!!!! It's sorrounded by breathtaking mountains and you can go hiking, cycling and sking enjoying the best nature of the world.

As a Bolzano citizen I recommend also to see that Green park behind him(Talvera), to eat at the Batzen and to try if possible to drive in some awesome road in the nearing

You have to visit Sarntal. Thats the place were i live. Its around 20km away of Bozen. We in Sarntal always say: letzar war di Ape hin

What an amazing place to live. I wanna live there.

We love the Sud Tirol and Bolzano. Try to get to Merano, just north-west of Bolzano. Former vacation town for the Habsburgs, it's a quick train ride away from Bolzano and is beautiful.

Going tomorrow. Can't wait

you actually forgot to mention a visit to the "PALAONDA", the ice hockey stadium of Bolzano, during a ice hockey game.. it's just an amazing experience for any ice hockey fan

Never heard of the place, sounds awesome. And I didn’t realize that Otzi was found in Italy. All these years I thought he was Austrian

@mienzeee

Жыл бұрын

Ötzi actually was Austrian but because of the fact that South Tyrol was only a part of Austria until WW first and he was found after that, he is considered Italian by many people. So that means if Ötzi would have been found 110 years earlier he would be at a museum in Innsbruck (Austria).

I stayed with Italian relatives in Bolzano as a kid. There was a beautiful castle across the valley that I convinced my parents to visit. We climbed quite a way, and it looked very cool as we approached. But when we knocked on the huge front door we were told "This is a private residence. Go away." Big disappointment. Sometimes the dream is better than the reality.

South Tirol is very beautiful and well worth a visit. One point you did not makes is that the public transport is generally very good. In particular there is a 'Verkehrsverbund' integrating bus and train services.

For me its strange to hear that you heard so much german speaking people in Bolzano. During the fascism many Germans were forced to leave the country and the regime encoureged migration from other italian regions. Therefore the population of Bolzano (only the city, no the rest of South Tyrol) is composed by nearly 75% italian speaking people. You can see that mainly if you move out from the historic centre of the city. The geman language (especially in the official Authorities) seems such an impossible thing! Great video by the way.

Hello, usually in August can be pretty hot still, temperatures reach easily the 30ºC But if you go camping a bit higher into the mountains then I’ll be a bit less hot during the evening and in the early morning. So I think that you should be okay. A lot of people love to go camping during summer because of the beautiful lakes that we have. So if you feel like it’s getting too hot you can always go canoeing and/or go for a swim!

Just remember that there is Austria between Germany and Italy

actually Bolzano is the only city in South Tyrol to have a large majority of native Italian speakers, around 73% speak Italian, against 25% German. While in Merano, which is the second largest city in South Tyrol, there are literally 50 and 50 Italian and German mother tongue speakers, in the rest of South Tyrol all the other cities and towns have a German majority, so it's quite rare that you hear more German than Italian. Most likely they were mostly German tourists

No, the best Italian beer is not brewed in Bolzano and Forst is not the best Italian beer, it might be one of the best you find in supermarkets. As a traveller and beer lover I can assure you that you can't find the best Italian beers in supermarkets but from artisans of beer. Personally the beers I prefer the most are brewed in Umbria, in Sicily and in Lombardy.

Thanks for the video. Love Balzono. Take a day trip to Castelrotto and hike the Alpe di Siusi, the largest Alpine meadow in Europe.

You are right about the history of the city and the region in general. However, you felt in Austria cause you probably visited the city center only (which is a small part of the entire city). The rest looks like any other Italian city; in fact, in your "Don't think you are in Austria" suggestion, you showed the image of a big arc, which has no Austrian influence whatsoever. You definitely can speak also German, but german mother tongues are the minority party in Bolzano: if you go for the rest of the city as well, you would probably need more Grazie, si e no rather than danke ja und nein. Finally, if you are in Italy, you should rather go for Italian food if you are a foreigner. Schnitzel and Spaetzle are Austrian and can be found also there (of the same quality) while the same cannot be said for pasta and pizza.

Don’t forget to visit Ortisei, the best town in Italy

So much good advice here. Bolzano, and all of Trentino, really, is one of the best destinations you can pick for a holiday in Italy. The food is amazing and very characteristic, the landscape is beyond beautiful and there are plenty of historical sites and museums to visit if you want to learn more about the history of the place. It's true that the locals aren't quite as expansive as elsewhere in Italy, but, in my experience, they're unfailingly polite and helpful to tourists. Especially if you can speak a bit of German. I can't recommend Trentino highly enough, it's really a spectacular place to visit.

Italian here, ehh it’s quite in the middle of both countries and it’s sandwiches between mountains, so if you go to Bolzano you have a lot of nature to look around, or other Tyrolese towns like Brixen or Merano, the Brenner pass to the north with Austria, or the Stelvio pass.

Glad to see one of my favorite cities on your channel! I add my useless two cents: 1) yes Bolzano/Bozen is on italian territory but it’s a multicultural city, some of the culturally austrian/ native german speaker people maybe do not appreciate too much to be referred to as italian….CORRECTION: i deleted stats that only referred to some town or village, but not to bozen or the entire region. Official stats on bozen website offered in double version german and italian, ladin, english 2) it’s part of Trentino-AltoAdige/Sudtirol region, which benefits from a certain degree of autonomy comparing to other regions, given its multicultural background. It’s also one of the richest, cleanest, most efficient places in italy. And whether that’s cultural or due to a more autonomous economy system it’s debatable 😂 3) probably a separatist movement still exists 4) public transport system is just amazing and takes you almost everywhere, it’s a very sustainable option. Some hotels use(d) to give free pub transport cards 5) don’t forget innichen, meran, vipiteno… 6) feel like shopping? give a look to Thun, Mila, Forst, sterzing dairy manufacturing sites. From beer to yoghurt to clay figurines, those are all very popular pruducts in italy 7) want to see a more italian side of the dolomites? Visit Trento and Trentino area

As an italian I feel a bit pissed off when you refer to south Tyrol as if it were only Austrian, because until 1800s it was actually independent and only then it was occupied by Austria,but the occupation lasted only a century, because after ww1 South Tyrol became part of Italy; Moreover the region is called also Altro Adige, as a part of Trentino-Alto Adige, so referring to it only with the name Südtirol it's not completely correct, and about the lack of friendliness, it's quite common in all the north and in some small towns in Abruzzo, it's just another cultural difference between north and south Italy.
