Insider Pavia

Pavia, Vigevano, the Oltrepò countryside, the villages. Discover seven tips for a special “local” trip.

The Tre Laghi Park? “A riot of colours”. Borgo Ticino? “It's our Burano”. The Lomellina under the snow? “A surprise”. So says a special guide who knows the Pavese area very well.

 

Our Insider? Scila Mazzoleri. Passionate about photography, especially travel photography since childhood, she likes to reveal the treasures of her local area through her Instagram profile. Pavia? “It's my second home. I share my coffees, croissants and focaccia with her... Slow Mondays and Fridays that end with an aperitif in the square... I love Pavia and in return she reveals wonders to me”. Discover her advice to experience Pavese in all its nuances.

To discover other destinations outside the usual routes follow #INSIDERinLombardia on the social networks. With us, apart from Scila, there is a large team of “photo ambassadors” invited to tell you about cities, mountains, lakes, villages, first-hand experiences.

Ps If you live in Lombardy, you love photography and also want to become an #INSIDERinLombardia, send us your application!

Here are Scila’s tips (on Instagram for those who are curious at @sm.turandot).
