ASOLO CITTÀ DEI CENTO ORIZZONTI 1 ASOLO CITTÀ DEI CENTO ORIZZONTI Defined by Giosuè Carducci the City of a Hundred Horizons, Asolo is one of the most picturesque old town centres in Italy. Contained within the ancient walls that branch off from the 12th century fortress, in every corner it preserves testimonies of its thousand- year old history. A fascinating place on the rolling Asolan hills, Asolo was a destination for poets and writers, artists and travellers that found inspiration and harmony here. Among them the English poet Robert Browning, the Divine theatre actress Eleonora Duse, the composer Gian Francesco Malipiero, the English writer and tra- veller Freya Stark. A visit to Asolo allows you to combine the pleasure for history and culture with that of dining. In taverns, restaurants, cafes and wine bars that overlook the characteristic arcades and squares you can enjoy de- licious dishes prepared with the finest local produce and linked to the Venetian culinary tradition, such as the delicious Cicchetti. All accompanied by a glass of sparkling Asolo Prosecco Superiore DOCG, the ex- cellence of our land. 2 PAGE 6 ABOut PAGE 18 OlD tOwn PAGE 54 ACCOMODAtIOnS PAGE 63 EAt & DRInk PAGE 88 ItInERARIES PAGE 118 SPORt PAGE 120 SHOPPInG PAGE 126 tOuRISM Services PAGE 132 SOS SOS 4 5 ABOut COMUNE DI ASOLO CAR PARKS Piazza G.
