    • Favorite Thing: One of my fondest memories is the beautiful scenery during the train journey from Venice to Calalzo Di Cadore (please visit my VT Calalzo page) followed by the 1 hour bus journey from Calalzo Di Cadore to Cortina d'Ampezzo. You will start in the sea lagoons and flat land of Venice and the Veneto plains, then slowly work your way up to green hills, deep valleys, lakes, rivers etc and finally to the imposing Dolomite Mountains region.

    • Favorite Thing: Cortina d'Ampezzo is an expensive town to stay, so you have to be mentally prepared. This is because it is one of the best skiing towns in Europe, having hosted the Winter Olympics before. Also, book your accomodation and transportation early to avoid disappointment especially during the crowded winter season.

    • Favorite Thing: If you are at Cortina d'Ampezzo during summer, you will be able to see the various colourful flowers in full bloom. This is one of my fondest memories of visiting this famous alpine town in Italy :)

     The Dolomites look awesome. We enjoyed your Cortina page and tips.    		Manara Mon May 26, 2008 13:18 UTC
     Excellent page! Pity about the bad weather! The statue represents Albert I, King of Belgium. He was a lover of mountains and one of the first VIPs who "discovered" Cortina about 100 years ago.
