Beautiful place. I went there for a Frank Zappa concert. It was in a
stadium at the foot of an Alp. Parts of it dated to the 12th century. I
wish I could remember the name of the restaurant there I ate in 26 years
ago, it was fantastic. The one warning I would give you is that since it is
near the Austrian border most people speak Italian and German. Since more
than 2 languages is hard for most people, hardly anyone speaks English.
When you give money to a homeless person on the street they say "grazie
danke". Enjoy.
