Sacro Monte of Varese (Santa Maria del Monte), medieval village, Italy - Picturesque stone staircase that leads to the church of the old hamlet
Sacri Monti of Piedmont and Lombardy. Picturesque stone staircase that leads to the church of the small and old hamlet of Santa Maria del Monte. The Sanctuary of Santa Maria del Monte acts as a fifteenth chapel. The Sacro Monte of Varese is located in the Regional Park Campo dei Fiori. In 2003 entered from UNESCO in list of World Heritage. The old village, with its 14 Chapels winding along a pebbly path of about 2 km, is probably the most fascinating Marian itinerary in the world
