6 countries involved – Conventions, Exhibitions, Concerts, Tastings e “The Angel’s Walk” to be discovered in the Upper Terra Di Lavoro
The spotlight is turned on on the third edition of the “Michaelica” project funded by the Region with POC Funds 2014 – 2020 – Program of events for the tourism promotion of Campania – “Action 2 – events of national and international importance – itineraries” and from the six municipalities of Caserta. The Michaelica has the objective of enhancing the cult of San Michele and the journey of the angel in the High Land of work.
Conferences, exhibitions, workshops and shows to tell the deep bond between the Saint and the territory. Sant’Angelo di Alife, Raviscanina, Rocchetta and Croce, Gioia Sannitica, Roccaromana, Castel Campagnano will be the absolute protagonists of a rich program of cultural events all focused on the rediscovery of Michaelic places, through the path known as that of the Angel. A new way of discovering, a completely different tourism experience.
The Michaelic itineraries present themselves, in fact, as new paths to follow for those who want to know the deepest and most hidden Italy. In this new path, the guest leaves behind the classic concept of travel to be enveloped by a new idea of experiential tourism. We are no longer looking for sites approved by global culture but we are choosing authentic places to look for our essence. The six municipalities are committed to activating this new experiential path that allows visitors to get to know authentic places in which to experience what is defined throughout the world as “Italian living”. In fact, not only will it be possible to visit places, but also to savor the tastes of typical dishes, smell the smells and explore the beauty of the area with all the senses. A path that combines faith and culture, giving the visitor the feeling of a complete physical, emotional and spiritual connection.
The program, rich and detailed in events, knows how to involve the soul and the senses of the visitors. The itineraries of the Angelo, called michaelic that of the Matese and Volturno Maggiore, will stimulate the curiosity of those who want to get lost in the colors of nature and for trekking enthusiasts. It will be possible to visit suggestive places such as the Caves of San Michele, villages and churches, reachable thanks to the shuttle service, they will be perfect places for moments of reflection and meditation. The experience will be deepened thanks to conferences and exhibitions that will reveal new aspects of the territory and the cult of San Michele. The notes and voices of popular musicians will color the evenings of the events with their performances. The various tastings of the excellent local products will delight the gluttony of those present who will thus have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the flavors lost over time.
All events will be free to the public
