ITALY_Castelfranco Veneto - carousel (merry-go-round)

It happen to be both: 1st of May and Sunday, when we have been there. We arrived around the noon time and street (should I call it the-main-square?) was full with local ppl. They all were in holday dress, many kept glasses of wine (celebrated May 1st, I guess), others eat snacks. Carousel was rotating and parents waited for galloping kids. At 1 PM everyting stopped and town got empty in few single minutes . Domo locked its doors, cafe closed, carousel was switched off and people dissapeared. It's nothing as saint in Italy as siesta time! At 3PM town awoke once again.

Beautiful Garden of Bolasco Vila, so-called Englis Gaden (assimetric one). It's a bit aside - short walk from town walls, but worth an effort. Vila was closed, unfortunatelly, but Garden is so welcoming and pleasing tha worth an effort to go there.

ITALY_Castelfranco Veneto - Revedin Bolasco Garden

Bolasco Garden is adorable! That's pity that vila was closed - i guess it should be at least as well as a garden. I found this video on youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5I7VOAskN3Y, it shows ball-room.

ITALY_Castelfranco Veneto - Revedin Bolasco Garden

This place is sharming, I think the owners planned live there in generations - all planned an built so smart, so carefully. I did some research but didn't find anything about owners - Bolasco family. If you know something - I'll be glad to hear the story of them. THe complex (vila & gardens) built in 19th cent - not so far ago.
