Rovereto: A City of Art and Culture
Rovereto, Italy inhabits the Lagarina valley, on the Leno River between Trento and Verona. It is also referred to as the City of Peace. Rovereto is famous for being a leading cultural center even from centuries ago. Its location among picturesque hills and vineyards make Rovereto not just a center for art, history and science but also a picturesque Venetian getaway.
Best Time to Visit
Mid-June to late September is the most appropriate period to visit Rovereto since the weather during these months is perfect for enjoying the many interesting attractions of the city. The city bustles with tourists as well as activities from June to August and accordingly, prices for Rovereto hotels are higher during these months, though you can save if you book in advance. The Settenovecento, a classical music fest from April to May also gets many visitors to the city. Tourist arrivals are limited in November but this also happens to be the least expensive month to check out the city.
