Sacred Mount Cavalry in Domodossola, Italy and Premia Thermal Spas

About an hour NW of us is a town called Domodossola and you will notice that the only reviews on Tripadvisor are in Italian.  This is one of my favorite things about living here is the ability to investigate these smaller picturesque towns that I normally wouldn't have time for on a vacation.  Last Saturday morning we took a day trip to Sacro Monte in Domodossola which was building in the 1600's.  It overlooks Domodossola and is one of nine catholic sanctuaries in this region and is on the UNESCO world heritage list. 














 I love this about Lake Maggiore....Palm trees and snow!


After hiking around, we headed another 30 minutes north to the Premia thermal baths.  They have indoor and outdoor pools and you are surrounded by the mountains.  It is spectacular!  Here are some pics from the drive also.
