CORTINA D´AMPEZZO
Reine des Dolomites. Patrimoine Naturel de l’Humanité UNESCO.
Cortina Reine des Dolomites, pour son paysage, son tourisme et son image de marque.
Cortina et son histoire : ville olympique, vitrine d’exclusivités et de style, capable de préserver des traditions ailleurs désormais disparues. Située au Nord-Est de la Vénétie, à 1.224 mètres d’altitude et à seulement deux heures de distance de Venise, Cortina est au coeur d’un scénario d’incomparable beauté, entourée de montagnes connues dans le monde entier et Patrimoine Naturel de l’Humanité UNESCO.
Cortina n’est pourtant pas seulement Reine de ressources naturelles; ses activités exclusives, ses évènements de premier plan, l’atmosphère vive et l’accueil chaleureux des cafés, des restaurants, des hôtels et refuges alpins, ainsi que l’élégance des magasins, ont fait sa renommée de destination touristique privilégiée. Mais Cortina est aussi un salon culturel apprécié, penché sur l’actualité mais aussi gardien d’anciens savoirs et de mémoires précieuses qui permettent à la Reine de se tourner vers le futur en restant forte de son propre passé.
