Canon EOS 250D | 74mm | 1/80s | f/11 | ISO 100 Taken on 08/05/2021. The Pavese hills remain a low-profile area in Lombardy, so you are pretty much guaranteed peace and quiet in the unspoiled countryside. Perhaps the best-known village in this district, called 'Oltrepò Pavese', is Montalto Pavese owing to its high altitude at 380 metres above sea level topped by its mighty medieval castle. This is a photo I took about a kilometre from the centre while I was walking to a viewpoint nicknamed 'Madonna del Vento' due to its often windy conditions. Don't be put off, though, as the views are really breath-taking. Because of the combination of low cloud and the short break of sunshine seeping through, this photo looks rather like an oil painting of some sort! 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: Take a bus from Pavia or Voghera to Casteggio and then change for Montalto Pavese. Both bus routes are run by 'Autoguidovie'. ______________________________________ #MontaltoPavese #OltrepoPavese #Oltrepo #Italia #VisitPavia #VisitLombardy #Lombardy #LandschaftsFotografie #LandscapeLover #NatGeoLandscape #Unfiltered #BestDestinations #BeautifulPlaces #ScenicLocations #ItalianLandscapes #InLombardia #Lombardia_Cartoline_ #MadeInItaly #LombardiaDaScoprire #LombardiaDaVedere #Italy_Vacations #ItalyTrip #Voyaged #WorldTravelPics #Italia_Shotz #ClickFor_Lombardia #TheHub_Lombardia #Lombardia_BestPhoto #BestLombardiaPics #TravelItaly (at Montalto Pavese) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUX9kU4oUyi/?utm_medium=tumblr
