Discover Brescia: by walking and tasting in its squares
The squares of our cities tell us stories of the past. Markets, gatherings, protests, and public life occurred in the squares. They are the open stage of our communities.
Brescia’s squares are the perfect stops along our walk through history to rest, look around, and discover local wine appellations.
Small tastings of “dolce Vita” are waiting for you there.
Can you imagine visiting a place through their wines, too?
Sure, wine is a pact between nature and humans before being a drink. It always feels comfortable with people, especially when they celebrate.
The walking tour, among the squares of Brescia, has the dual purpose of introducing you to the local history and the best-known wines of Brescia paired with local food because your visit is only complete if you get their local flavors!
