The Santuario della Madonna di Tirano is a beautiful church where the Virgin Mary appeared in 1504. It is one of the most beautiful churches I have seen in my life. It is located 10 minutes' walk from the Tirano train station and is worth the time. If you are taking the Berlina Express train and have time, don't miss it.

Beautiful church where the Virgin Mary appeared in front of Mario Omodei in 1504. They built the church exactly on that spot. If you enter, go to the left side where there is a dedicated place for wishes and prays. Never saw it before! There are small and local bar/restaurants around and also narrow streets. Really nice!

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
