CULTURAL PARKS
…. In fact, Vicenza’s doesn’t represent just an economical miracle, but also a cultural one. A miracle of writing and sculture, which can just be sketched by these pages: they suggest itineraries, sometimes with the effort of intellectuals and renowned people, who were fascinated by this land, and have kept some surprising aspects of it. With their effort we hope to amaze even the nowadays visitor, so that, after coming back home from his Grand Tour in Vicenza’s lands, he would feel pushed to pick up his old edition of Meneghello’s, Piovene’s, Parise’s or Fogazzaro’s operas, ended up somewhere on his bookshelves. (translated version of a piece by Antonio Franzina, taken from “I parchi culturali del vicentino” edited by Touring Club Italiano) In the following lines we list the authors, both from Vicenza and elsewere, throughout which the author identified “The cultural parks of Vicenza’s lands”. Before than real spaces with physical enclosures, they are also mobile and mental containers springing out of these artist’s works, from their “telling” Vicenza’s lands. The result was a nice guide, proper in giving hints, offering suggestions, stimulating the visitor , as it was said before, to read, or re-read. If it's true , as the Touring Club itself suggests, that the tourist of the XXI century looms mature, conscious, informed, open minded , curious and, above all, responsible, then history, art and culture are going to be the attractions of the third millennium tourism; thus we consider important the operation, here shown, of exposition of Vicenza’s and Vicenza’s lands cultural patrimony, which is not only Palladio. We are also sure that the Cultural Parks have a future and will become Cultural Businesses due to the residents’ interest in their history and the opportunity to further their knowledge. All of this can be transformed into events and shows combined with the area’s famous hospitability and traditional cuisine and, naturally, economic elements can be applied to culture to establish the foundations on which to build an innovative cultural tourism business.
