    Storks & Flowers, A Day Dedicated to Nature.

    Castello dei Seyssel d'Aix

    Let's take a walk through this little Borgo, where we find another castle (in case you haven't had enough) Chateau Dei Seyssel D'aix.
    But how many of these castles are there? So many, because this is a land of vineyards, the "Seigneurs" in times past used to bring their residence here to these lands.
    Another peculiarity of Sommaria del bosco is its no less than eleven churches.

    Associazione Centro Cicogne e Anatidi

    Moving away from the Langhe, the landscape begins to change. But not completely.
    And because you've enjoyed nature these days, we dive into marshes and ducks.
    We go to the Stork Center in Racconigi. At this center you can learn all about storks and anatids in general: where they come from, how they move, how they feed, their importance to the eco-system.
    The guides are great, keeping you glued to listening.
    Check out the website for a chance to join a guided tour.

    Castle of Pralormo

    We end on a high note with The Castle of Pralormo, now infamous for the "Messer Tulip" event it hosts every year in privamera.
    Expanses of tulips cover the lawns inside the Castle.
    We fill up before heading home.
    Every Sunday it is open for public tours. The month of August is closed for summer break; alternatively, you can visit the church of San Donato or the 13th-century Bell Tower, both just 200m away.

    Zero Enoteca Conviviale

    Before heading back to town and after stocking up on cheeses, we can't help but end our tour of the Langhe with a visit to the Conviviale wine shop, where we can have one last toast and choose a few bottles to take home.
    It is closed on Sundays, open on Mondays from 6 to 10 p.m., other days also from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. for lunch.
