Also because traveling to those lands is always a good reason to sample the wines produced here in one of the hundreds of wineries, such as <strong>Barolo, Nebbiolo, Barbaresco, Barbera <\/strong>and <strong>Dolcetto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>And how can we forget the legendary <strong>white truffle of Alba<\/strong>, star of the most unique cuisines in the world, or, perhaps less famous but more widespread, the <strong>hazelnut Tonda Gentile delle Langhe<\/strong>, used in industrial quantities by one of the most famous companies in the confectionery sector, the <strong>Ferrero<\/strong> in Alba.<\/p>\n<p>The Langhe, a tourist destination for food and wine but also for the artistic and cultural beauty of its landscapes and the presence of castles and monuments of extraordinary value. No coincidence that the Langhe have been declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO.<\/p>\n<p>As already said, in spring there are many events taking place in this area. One of the main is on April 10 and 11, in the historical centre of <strong>Cherasco<\/strong>, a flea market with more than 600 exhibitors. Between April 30 and May 1, in <strong>Nieve<\/strong> takes place &#8216;La Primavera del Borgo&#8217; with wine and food events and markets. Do not miss &#8216;Vinum&#8217;, in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.traveleurope.it\/itinerari\/a\/alba.shtml\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Alba<\/strong><\/a>, from April 23 to May 1, with the presentation of new vintages of wine from the Langhe and Roero, another important wine area near the Langhe. In early April, in <strong>Castiglione Falletti<\/strong> ends the 2011 edition of<strong> &#8216;The great terroir of Barolo<\/strong>,&#8221; an event dedicated to the last vintage of the legendary wine. Still in Alba will be held the sixth edition of <strong>Bacco&amp;Orfeo<\/strong>, a series of concerts of high artistic value combined with moments of knowledge and food and wine tastings.<\/p>\n<p>Photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/cimatti\/768488683\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Alessandra Cimatti<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In spring, the region of Piedmont called Langhe offers tourists a great selection of festivals and events.
