Album Info:
Vezzano Ligure is situated in the lower part of the Val di Magra, on a hill dominating the confluence of the rivers Magra and Vara. Located between val di Vara and Sarzana's plain, Vezzano is at the extreme east of Ligury. It is divided in two little villages, Vezzano Superiore, or Soprano, and Vezzano Inferiore, also called Sottano. The name of the Vezzano is surely Roman, and is related to the word indicating the Vetii family's possessions.In the past, Vezzano has been an important node for trade and communication between the Magra River and La Spezia; as a consequence, trade has always been a major resource for the town. The other big resource is agriculture: gifted with a mild climate, Vezzano area is particularly suitable to grow olive trees and grapes.From the green hill hosting Vezzano Soprano it is possible to enjoy an exceptional view, proof of the strategic importance of the village; the view stretches from Golfo di La Spezia to the white Alpi Apuane, passing through the valle and the confluence of Vara and Magra rivers.
