CAVAION VERONESE

Cavaion Veronese lies on the hills close to Bardolino.
This land is of ancient wine-producing origins. The vineyards are almost all extremely modernized.
The historic downtown is rather interesting. Noteworthy and characteristic are the small pedestrian alleys paved in cobblestone and bound by high retaining walls: they are called introi.
The locals are also fond of their “piazza,” the town square, central meeting point of small rural courtyards: indeed, it was once the backyard of the quarter, but also the center of the local town life during past centuries.
The parish church is an odd kind of building: the main entrance gate is on the side of the building while there is only a very small entrance door on the impressive neoclassical facade.
