Vizzata

Vizzata is one of the tiny hamlets that make up San Cassiano.

Rain clouds threatened to make their way across the mountain behind the village the afternoon I was there, but the rain held off long enough for me to have a look around.

I parked my car at the car park at the bottom of the village as I couldn’t see a road in. The little path into the centre was lined with pretty gardens and flower filled pots.

Vizzata is very tiny. I don’t know how many people live there, but I suspect it is not many. There are some very interesting buildings, including a few renovators’ delights.

There were some very tired cats resting in quiet spots.

  1. These are all amazing photographs, I loved them all. But but you can guess, especially with the photographs of the last part I fall in love 🙂 Thank you dear Debra, you did amazing set. Have a nice day and weekend, love, nia

  2. A beautiful village, Debra, and great photos. I particularly like the fountain, where I guess that the local women used to do their washing.

  3. Thank you, amazing photos again! Curious about the gate, seems quite grand for a small place like Vizzata. And the green leafed plant growing on the wall is unusual?
    I think San Cassiano is beautiful, if the goats don’t stink too much a beautiful area for a long walk and a picnic

    • I was curious about that gate too. The plant growing out of the wall is a caper bush. They seem to grow very well without soil, amazing. You can see a lot of them on the walls on the way to La Villa in summer.

      • Thank you, I have never see caper plants before and imagined they would grow on a bush. I wonder if wild capers taste different…. Mmmm.

  4. I’m reliably informed that there was a Vizzata Festa last summer, although I was’nt invited.
    Its a very exclusive affair i’m told, with invitations being issued strictly on a need to know basis!
    One of the lovely villages that make up the Controneria. Thanks again for the great pics.
