From the tour on the Nena boat to then go on the bike to discover Villa Mensa and Sabbioncello, up to the day on the track at the hippodrome which opened its doors to the city yesterday. Weekend that is expressed with the word tourism, with a boom in visitors.
Licia Vignotto, manager of Esterno Verde, is enthusiastic about the success of the event with villas, delights, games and projections. “Sold out for a few days on the boat, we had to close the reservations – he explains –, a nice trip in slow navigation along the Po di Volano, then we disembarked with our bikes to discover some symbolic places of the countryside”. There are those who were moved by Zenzalino’s Delizia. “There were those who went there as children and were thrilled to rediscover it”, says Vignotto. Lunch was set in the churchyard of Viconovo. Proloco volunteers at the stove. Then time for exploration between Viconovo, Villanova, Denore, Sabbioncello and Copparo. The destinations Delizia di Zenzalino, Villa Bighi, Villa Mensa, Villa Delfini and the Chalet, the Rose Garden, Casale Colombara, the Fattoria di Zia Isa. ‘Elogio della Pianura’ was proposed at Villa Bighi, a tribute to the artist on the thirtieth anniversary of his death. Space for art with the photographic exhibition of Francesca Occhi, Andrea Bighi and Marco Caselli Mytos, and the piano by Lorenzo Locorotondo. A table football tournament was organized at the Arci di Denore club. Then eyes glued to ‘Fango’, a documentary on the exploits of Tresigallo Calcio presented by director Corradino Janigro.
