Can The Coil Cause Depression

The path of the rock carvings of Sassella



La classica passeggiata dei sondriesi è quella al santuario della Madonna della Sassella. Dal centro cittadino il percorso dura circa un'ora e si snoda in piano lungo la via Valeriana, The old road that ran halfway across the valley.




The route has great historical and cultural values \u200b\u200bas the last part is entirely surrounded by terraced vineyards of Sassella, terracing the joint effort of generations of farmers who carried the earth from valley with the panniers.




During the Counter along this path were built several chapels, a sort of small Sacro Monte never finished because they were built only five on the twelve planned. Until a few years ago the last of these chapels, in a recess of the path near a stream, it was possible to admire the statues ligneee of the twelve apostles and the Virgin Mary statues that were transported to the museum for restoration of Sondrio.


After about an hour's walk we reach the hamlet of Sassella, where stands the church dedicated to Our Lady.
According to tradition, the shrine was founded in 932 in response to a request made by Our Lady appeared archpriest of Sondrio. The present building, however, is dated to the fifteenth century and is characterized by an elegant portico and a unique pentagonal tower which can be seen from the highway just before reaching Sondrio. The village has a special charm, with old houses risistrutturate and cobblestones that smacks of yore.




From here you can take the path that goes through the vineyards to reach, in about twenty minutes, the fraction of Triasso, which enjoys spectacular views over the valley and on ' Adda.





not seem to be in the context of the Alps mountains. Even in winter you can walk in shirt and if you pay attention you can find that among the stones of the stone walls are a few examples of succulent plants typical of the Mediterranean flora.

Stress Fractures And Metatarsalgia

Triasso

The rock carvings of
Triasso are not known even to the same Sondrio, but on the whole side of the mountain Rolla were discovered several sites with prehistoric findings suggest that lead to the Iron Age settlements along the side of the Valtellina reticulum.



In the town of Sondrio and its immediate vicinity there are in fact five prehistoric sites, all placed in a position overlooking the valley, ie a triangle, at the Church of St. Bartholomew, all'imbiocco Val di Castel Togno and Grumello . There are mainly of the shells, but close to Triasso there are more complex drawings strongly reminiscent of the engravings of the most famiose Rupe Magna Grosio and those of Vallecamonica.

To visit the engravings of Triasso worth it to leave the car in the square of the village, which lies in a valley sheltered from view just above the village of Sassella, and continue through the vineyards to the west on the road uphill. After about twenty minutes on the right you can see a house and a rustic and isolated shortly after they depart a way that reaches them. Next to the cottage there is a smooth rock on which recognize different camuna praying and a rose. A Sunday stroll exciting.

Salvatore Quasimodo in Sondrio

Ma che c'entra Salvatore Quasimodo con la Valtellina? Che ci fa il poeta siciliano, premio Nobel per la letteratura, poeta ermetico e traduttore impareggiabile di poesia antica tra le aspre montagne retiche? Nella raccolta poetica "Ed è subito sera" compaiono due liriche che evocano inequivocabilmente il paesaggio valtellinese. Si tratta di "La dolce collina" e "Sera nella valle del Masino".

La prima è forse la più nota e viene quantomeno citata dai libri locali che parlano del paese di Ardenno: qualcuno ha pure pensato di dare un nome alla donna con "un fiore di corallo tra i capelli" cercandola tra le abitanti delle "scure case del borgo" dal quale il poeta ascolta l'Adda. In ogni caso il verso "la dolce collina d'Ardenno" ci sta bene sugli opuscoli turistici e viene quindi riportato, magari anche solo come citazione.

Sorte opposta è toccata invece all'altra lirica, vuoi per l'oscurità del linguaggio ermetico, vuoi per l'aria cupa che vi si respira. Versi come "Presto la rana cresce il verde: è foglia" ricordano più le sestine del trobar clus della poesia delle origini, che le chiazze di colore di altre più famose poesie di Quasimodo:"Ride la gazza, nera sugli aranci". Ma versi come "e l'allarme / è un canto di cupo dialetto" o locuzioni quali "cesure straziate", "lamento del corvo", "immutabile la noia", "freddo pietoso" non danno della Valtellina un'immagine felice da cartolina illustrated and were therefore censored from students of local history and memory.

Moreover Quasimodo was not by choice in Sondrio. In 1934, acting as interim surveyor at the Civil Engineering Department, got a transfer to Milan, but a bureau chief who did not like the poets confined him in Valtellina. At the offices of Piazzale Lambertenghi spent as little time as possible, so that an employee was accused of being ineffectual and even earned an official warning. In fact, just could not take the train back to Milan where he spent his time with artists and journalists in the most famous cafes in the city. On the train, which came and went, but courted the young teacher and requested them to leave the study by Carducci to appeal to modern poets.

So women were always in his speeches as well as in his poems.

Marijuana For Chronic Pain In Canada

Leonardo da Vinci and the Baths of Bormio

"At the top of the mountain is Valtolina in Bormio. Terrible always full of snow, stoats born here. A Bormio are the baths. Valtolina as that terrible valley circumdata of high mountains. It's powerful wines and does so much more, and cattle from villagers ended born more milk than wine. This is the valley where Adda passes, which runs more than 40 miles to the Magna. "

So Leonardo da Vinci describes succinctly the Valtellina in the Atlantic Codex. Historians have been unable to trace una prova certa della conoscenza diretta del territorio valtellinese da parte di Leonardo. Si ipotizza che potesse essere al seguito di Bianca Maria Sforza, la bella nipote prediletta dello spregiudicato Ludovico il Moro, andata sposa all'imperatore Massimiliano d'Asburgo, già vedovo della prima moglie. Il matrimonio era stato celebrato per procura nel dicembre del 1493 e la sposa, dovendo raggiungere il marito a Innsbruck, transitò per la valle fermandosi alcuni giorni a Bormio, ospite della famiglia Alberti, prima di affrontare il temibile passo dell'Umbrail.

Il fatto che alcuni elementi essenziali del paesaggio della Magnifica Terra compaiano nella descrizione leonardesca ha fatto pensare ad una conoscenza diretta del territorio. Le montagne incombenti e piene di neve che incutono terrore a chi è abituato al dolce paesaggio collinare toscano, gli ermellini, le terme . E poi ancora altri elementi che fanno pensare al viaggio lungo la valle, come il vino e il bestiame , che ancor oggi rappresentano gli elementi di punta delle produzioni tipiche locali.

Ipotesi suggestive sì, ma certezze anche questa volta non ne abbiamo.

Excessive Thirst 9th Month

Deborah Compagnoni slope

Una delle emozioni più belle in montagna è risvegliarsi al mattino dopo che ha nevicato tutta la notte. Stamani il cielo era azzurro e terso, la neve farinosa e soffice, il paesaggio fatato con tutti gli abeti incappucciati di bianco. Dovendo tornare a lavorare in the afternoon, we went up early by the Morning, less than 60 euro in six people: a godsend.

cable car could be seen from the beaten track partially ee partially covered by snow. Once at the ridge Sobretta we decided to get off the front, leading the children. The track is dedicated to Deborah Compagnoni is a black, it's pretty tough, but if it is not frozen is a beauty and they also manage to get off now. The first time we chose the variant Sobretta on the front, following the route of the old women's liberation, the one that came to the Source. After years I tried again the thrill of skiing in fresh snow, forty inches of powdery snow wonderful background beat, no risk for me or for others. It 's wonderful to get off first and leave their wakes like a wagging in the snow.

Then we went into the valley of the Alpe in the sun and a hot chocolate at the refuge, and after a couple of runs we went down into the valley. The thrill of skiing in fresh snow had not yet passed. But this time we have seen from the gondola that others had followed us and the snow was now drawn from a dense network of trails. We then followed the old track Snowdrop hours dedicated to the friendly local champion. It is a path with a drop of one thousand meters that more good can go in less than two minutes. We descended slowly, with time of children. This

track has a unique history, which not everyone knows about: it was in fact drawn from a massive avalanche in 1918, the last year of the Great War. We've got some old black and white photographs, made at the end of the forties that shows the old paths through the woods and the only recognizable track. Unfortunately for the world of 2005 was enlarged and shaped. The woodland, which once was a true spectacle, no longer has that alternative descent and small planes, everything was aligned to make the track in accordance with international regulations and security policies ... But he lost a piece of history and poetry.

Why Does My Belly Bloat After A Meal

Holiday Carnival at the spa

's finally holiday, only two days of Carnival, but two days is not healthy because they fall on the weekend and finally you can go skiing without fear of finding the crowd. Roman Carnival, of course, since we are in the diocese of Como, in an area that has mostly tourists from Milan. We leave for Santa Caterina to enjoy this holiday season.

forecasts were so-so, quite ambiguous. The reality has exceeded expectations, but this time the worse it snows and there is poor visibility, little desire to ski. We spent the morning with the slide and bob up and down the street, bathing and having fun as we had fun once, but we just enjoy it for the afternoon. Terme, yes of the fantastic spa baths New , the warmth in the hot water in the falling snow.

E 'a special feeling, one that you feel in life a few times. The beauty of Bagni Nuovi is that there are many pools and outdoor swimming pools for which the lawn with white snow we finally managed to roll and dive back into the boiling water. It 'just does not happen often, but when it happens we must not just have it escape.
