Avery GRAZIE!! Truly thank you for your help, I'll pin this as always. Your support means a lot to such a small channel like this. Wish you a nice Sunday and see you soon as always!
Thank you dear Andi, and always happy to see you back. Wish you also a nice week ahead Andi and thank you for the wishes. It's raining quite heavily here today... but it should stop in the next few days
The view from the church just stunning….I see beauty in those buildings and generations of people living there…I see great craftsmanship in the way they built the houses….it’s breathtaking
Kate, nice to see yoiu back) A breathtaking town indeed - a mix of gloomy and bright areas in Artena - a unique town for sure. Not easy to reach the top though, it took some time)
Salut Riccardo très heureuse de vous faire ce commentaire,la vue d en haut, c'est comme un tableau dessiné par un excellent péintre,, toujours le bon choix de votre part, merci beaucoup pour votre travail 👏👍
Chère Bouchra toujours un plaisir de te revoir ici dans le chat ! En effet... on dirait un tableau. Une ville pittoresque Artena, très belle. J'adore ce passe-temps et j'espère ne pas m'arrêter de sitôt. Je vous souhaite un bon dimanche et un grand Ciao Bouchra, à bientôt
Your collection of beautiful towns in central Italy just keeps getting better and better, and this latest addition is another jewel in your crown. The drone footage was simply breathtaking, as it provided a stunning view of the other towns nestled down in the valley. Thank you for putting together another excellent piece of work, as I thoroughly enjoyed taking the tour.
Truly blessed to read such a message from you dear Abdul and always a pleasure to see you back here in the chat. Love this hobby and I hope to not stop soon indeed. Wish you a nice Sunday and a big Ciao
Ah Clark, yup. Found the town kinda in a weird position as the sunlight was only on the southern part of it and the northern ones wasn't lit after lunch by the winter sun. The cats surely knew where to position for sure)
@@clarkmadrosen1780 yeah I actually envy them a lot... not fighting to get their food, relaxing all day, taking a nap, watching people go by, and then going to sleep. Rinse and repeat. Lucky ones)
It really is Abdul, liked it very much, also for the reason it was not always hit by the sun.. it was a little gloomy in some corners while others shone.
Glad you enjoyed also Artena dear Angela! A quaint town ... liked it VERY much and it's not too far from where I'm from) WIsh you also a nice Sunday and see you next week then )
12 minutes in, getting up to make a fresh cup of coffee so I can continue. Once again, so buttery smooth movement, it feels like we're gliding. Did you use a gimbal this time? I didn't see it in your equipment list. There's no hills like the hills in Italy populated by picture postcard towns and villages. I can't wait to walk the streets of Sorano and experience something like this myself. Wonderful work again.
Dear Ken, always happy to read your words and the words from someone who comes from the world of photography and videos. As you can see I applied some of your suggestions in this video as you told me perhaps one year ago by email (I need to reply to you there and check it!). If you see, this time the movemement of the drones are synched, all right or all left with change of pace between the two when the music transitioned as you told me. Glad it turned out decently. Indeed I'm using and experimenting now with a different setup (GoPro 10 + gimbal) - I'll tell you in the emails in detail) Love the end results with this new one... the image is also crispier and the lens are more wide. The colours are lively. Truly love it
@@StillWanderer It really is beautiful. I kind of feel embarrassed that I gave you suggestions back then- you who have done this so many times and bring such beauty to your TH-cam family. You really know what you're doing. But yes, editing has been and still is a passion of mine. The music really does tell you when to dissolve. And you can go 30 seconds perhaps, dissolving on the second beat. But then there is great joy and storytelling in having 2 or 3 longer clips in a row that have lovely flyovers. Then you can go back to dissolving on every second beat. The music will always tell you what to do. I get giddy thinking of the day when we return from Italy and I sit down for my first editing session! Happy walking!
@@kensellar thank you Ken! Your suggestions truly helped me out to improve my skills (still a newbie actually) so I never forget this! Indeed, the music....the music...
My dear Sudip, happy to read you this evening, just before 9 pm here and before another chaotic week of work ahead. Relaxing a bit after some tough days finally. Always happy you enjoyed the latest walk my dear Sudip and wish you also a nice Sunday and... since it's quite late over here, a nice week ahead my dear friend
Toujours ravie de te revoir ici chère Line) J'espère continuer à ce rythme avec ce hobby que j'aime vraiment. Je te souhaite un bon dimanche aussi chère Line et à dans quelques jours, peut-être de retour en Toscane)
Ahhh Avery, been flying drones since 2017 but still consider myself a bit "green" in this. I'm not so brave as others to fly between houses and to show some amazing movements. I truly prefer a more relaxed approach for sure) Glad you enjoy them though
Another town that I love.(why does Italy have all these beautiful places?) Glad that someone like you is showing us these places, Riccardo 🤗 Great drone photography 😍
Good question actually Geraldine, still impressed myself every time I have the chance to visit around these towns. Most of the time it's the first time for me as well and I'm always shocked at how much beauty is left unknown and un-discovered as well... A
Artena looks like a place that rains a lot because of the green on the ground. Makes me wonder if it's slippery to walk when the ground is wet. As always, a wonderful insight to one of the many beautiful towns in Italy. Although I'm more of the type that loves the big city hustle and bustle, I look forward to quiet stays where I can clear the mind and re-energize myself. Good job!!
Haupia, very glad to see you back; indeed, some part of Artena are more in the shadow compared to others parts: I sensed that the sunshine didn't light much some parts. while others near the main church are more blessed in this. I'm preparing for the crowdy towns and cities starting again from this Summer; some will come) But very glad to know you enjoyed also Artena. A big ciao from here and see you soon
@@StillWanderer Ciao Ric! I've been watching your videos on my TV but I don't know how to post a comment using the remote control. LOL Hey, I'm going to message you through Patreon. Hopefully, it goes through. Buongiornata!!
@@Haupialani Haupia, ahhh ok, I'll be checking then in Patreon) I never tried watching the videos on a TV set actually... I'll try with my home set to see how they are rendered
شيماء! يسعدني دائمًا رؤيتك) مدينة جميلة بالفعل أرتينا ... إنها قريبة جدًا من المكان الذي أتيت منه أيضًا) أتمنى لك يومًا سعيدًا وأراك قريبًا كما هو الحال دائمًا
Another charming town, another beautiful trip👍 In appearance, those old towns resemble each others, but each of them has its own personality, Artena as well 🤗 Thank you, Riccardo, for your great work, have a happy weekend!
Dear Ioana, ciao. Ahh yes, sometimes they seem similiar but then, just after some small venturing inside, it's all different. Some corners, some alleys... Loved Artena, quite a long walk to reach the top before starting the video though, it wasn't very easy) WIsh you also a nice Sunday and see you soon as always then. A big ciao
Amazingly beautiful Artena ❤❤, ascending and descending pathways always fascinates me . There is a profound liveliness in its silent atmosphere . And the history which goes back to remote past is amazing . 😊😊 My best wishes to you for a peaceful and wonderful time ahead . Your efforts are really praiseworthy .
Dear Rajyashree, always a pleasure seeing you here) Ahhhh... to climb up before filming honestly wasn't easy at all... I arrived at the top with all the camera and stuff and was literally exahusted and had to relax for a long time. Though... I'm 40 and not 20 anymore, so... it makes sense) Thanks to you as always Rahyashree and see you at the next one (maybe back in Tuscany)
@@StillWanderer Age is really a factor but the perfection in your work is amazing it is really a rare quality . I have seen so many walking videos but no one can match this channel . Beautiful ❤️❤️
@@rajyashreeyadav68 Thank you Rajyashree, always very happy to read such words to be honest! It's still a hobby for me, but glad it can be appreciated as such!
Ja was soll man schreiben.Wunderbarer Ort 💕mich erfreut es immer wieder wie der kleinste Winkel / Ecke hüsch hergerichtet werden.Deine Drohnen Aufnahmen sind wunderbar.Vielen lieben DANK Riccardo.Deine Mühe...Geduld....und deine Gesundheit sollen dir noch lange erhalten bleiben. Cia💕🍀🇮🇹🇦🇹 Grazie 🥂 schönes Wochenende noch für dich😉
Liebe Dagmar, es ist immer wieder schön dich hier zu sehen und immer die erste zu kommentieren! Ich bin etwas spät dran, da ich dieses Wochenende zur Arbeit in Norditalien und endlich wieder zu Hause war. Ich bin wirklich gerührt von Ihren Wünschen und Ihrem Segen, und ich sage Ihnen bei dieser Gelegenheit dasselbe. Ich liebte Artena auch, es ist nicht allzu weit von meiner Heimat entfernt, fand es aber sehr faszinierend. Es ist teils düster, teils glänzend. Ein wahres Juwel. Wünsche dir einen schönen Sonntag liebe Dagmar und bis nächsten Freitag (vielleicht in der Toskana...) :)
Another jewel in your crown of beautiful towns in central Italy. The drone footage just took my breath away, as you can see the other towns down in the valley. Thanks for another great work. I enjoyed the tour. P.S. I saw your video last week but just forgot to leave a comment.
Dear Esther, always a pleasure to see you enjoyed the last addition. Artena is indeed in such a position to command all the valley there, even though I found out that after 3 pm the sun doesn't light it very well and it can be a little gloomy, perhaps only in winter though. In the morning it's instead very well lit. A gem of a town indeed... truly liked it , although reaching the top before filming from down below was quite a struggle)
Always glad to see you back here dear Artistry, and thanks for your words) I hope to continue with this rythm with this hobby which I truly love. Wish you a nice Sunday
Oi, Ric! Fascinante como toda a Itália. A atmosfera é incrível! Às vezes, acho que você deve sentir o aroma das cozinhas das nonnitas 🥰 Obrigada pelos momentos encantadores. Espero que você esteja saudável e totalmente recuperado. Abraço, Ric! ✨✨
Ahhh sim Mari, você não imagina as conversas que tenho com muitos vovôs e vovós nessas cidades, principalmente quando estou me preparando para filmar ou quando termino. Ou às vezes as cenas são cortadas porque eu troco algumas palavras aqui e ali. Ainda assim, ainda não me ofereceram algo para comer)) Mas às vezes um café foi oferecido) É realmente uma parte da alegria filmar durante os fins de semana e esquecer minhas lutas diárias no trabalho etc... Eu amo esse hobby e espero poder continuar com esse ritmo. Desejo um bom domingo querida Mari e até breve como sempre!
Love your video. But you I know I wish you could tour inside one of those homes along the way so we could just get a glimpse of what they look like. Would be interesting to see!!
Ciao Carol, this is not the first time that I receive such question.... up until noe I wasn't able to just becuase I didn't want to enter into privacy things.. but I could ask for the permission sometimes , it could be quite interesting indeed... I will try in the future about this. If some old inhabitants decide.it would be surely interesting for the viewers to see how they really are.
Merhabalar uzun bir zamandan sonra tekrar seyretme fırsatı buldum , bizim ülkemizde çok büyük depremler oldu ve buyuk bir trajedi yaşanıyor . Bu görüntüler beni biraz gerçek gündemden uzaklaştırdı. Her zamanki gibi huzuru geçmiş zamanda buldum İtalya nın klasik kendine has mimarisi o daracık sokaklar , taş duvarla , kendine özgü taş evler saksıda çiçekler ......sanki zam an durmuş ve bir anda gözlerimi kapatıp kendimi o evlerde buldum. Çok teşekkürler ....
Sevgili Bilcen, son zamanlarda seni burada görmedim ve hemen sebebini hayal ettim... Televizyondan korkunç haberleri ve görüntüleri gördük ... korkunçtu demek hiçbir şey söylememektir... Bir memleketten olmak 2009'da olduğu gibi depremlerden de çok zarar gören, sizi belki daha iyi anlıyoruz... Umarım bu küçük video o zor günlerde en azından birkaç dakikalık bir kaçış ve huzur verebilmiştir... Sırf günümüzün çılgınlığını düşünmemek için bu kasabaları hafta sonları da çekiyorum. Güçlü olalım ve geleceğin olmasını bekleyelim. Sana buradan sıcak bir kucaklama ve kocaman bir sıcak selam gönderiyorum
I thought this was a lovely Italian town, and I couldn't help but again feel captivated by its beauty. Every turn unveiled an array of charming sights - from the characterful, rustic buildings to the picturesque valleys nestled in the surrounding hills. The town indeed seemed to be built like layers of a cake, with its various levels that must have challenged the legs but perhaps rewarded the soul? I am wondering out of all of these little villages if you have favorites? I kept a record of my favorites for a while but eventually gave up since almost all of them ended up on the list. 😀
CIao Deana! Always a pleasure to see you back. The correlation about the town being like a layer of a cake is so spot on. It wasn't an easy task to reach the top before starting filming to say the least, it was quite a breath-taking event (in the painful way of course:)) Hard to say which are my favourites... but surely, amongst the latest ones, I must say Picinisco and Navelli; I truly loved Labro for instance... and it's not a famous walk or town, but surely.. it's hard to say. Every one has its own charme, and I'm not writing this to appear a kind of naive or "too kind dude" - some are more favourite than others for sure, but it's hard to say which)
@@StillWanderer Thank you for your dedication and all of your hard work. I hope you give yourself a rest in between walks. This one did look quite difficult! We so appreciate it, though, as you take us along on your journeys. I will go back and watch Picinisco and Labro. All of the small towns are so beautiful. Thanks again.
Ciao Arturo, I must say that up in the old village I didn't see them actually (in the old town per-se). There are a few a little further from after the filming was finished, in the square down below. I could see a small bar in the square near the end though... but the majority (restaurants, trattorias) are a little downhill from the old town. Still, highly recommend Artena, it's a rough diamond I reckon
Спасибо, дорогой Пафнутий, всегда рад видеть тебя здесь, мой дорогой друг. Артена тоже очень понравилась... один из тех городов, которые я предпочитаю, если честно - одинокий, мало людей и туристов вокруг. Действительно фантастическое тихое место действительно Artena. Желаю хороших выходных Пафнутий вам и вашим близким. Это была утомительная неделя для меня. Я просто отдохну в эти дни
@@StillWanderer да тихий и спокойный городок, а ещё мне понравились картины на некоторых стенах домов, я думаю скорее всего они работы местного художника. Спасибо Риккардо за добрые слова и вам желаю крепкого здоровья, удачи и хорошо отдохнуть, а также набраться сил.
Lieber Frank, was für eine Freude, dich wiederzusehen! Es ist schon eine Weile her, muss ich sagen. Freut mich zu hören, dass alles in Ordnung ist. Eigentlich war es in Artena etwas seltsam, nur wenige Leute, fast niemand. Aber man muss bedenken, dass im historischen Teil vieler Dörfer in Italien oft nur ältere Menschen leben und dass sie nach und nach unbewohnt werden. Die Lage dort oben ... Ich habe gesehen, dass sich der Großteil der Bevölkerung in der neuen Stadt am Fuße der alten befindet :( Es ist traurig, aber das passiert oft ... und ich denke, es wird immer schlimmer in der Zukunft Leider
I didn't think I would find a town as evocative and beautiful as Sorano, but I think this might be it. Gorgeous narrow streets with a story in every stone. I think the stairs would kill me, though!
It's indeed a stunning town, though quite different from Sorano, Ken. It's a bit more "gloomy" Artena, in some misterious way, while Sorano and its surrounding (especially those) are a little "brighter" and the area is less populated and more.... medieval. Just out of the historical town of Artena it's a rather busy and crowdy area :/ But stunning town indeed Ken
ARTENA sembra una visione dell'apostolo Giovanni nel libro dell"Apocalisse: " E vidi il cielo aperto, ed ecco! una città altissima, cuasi impossibile da concepire, sospesa nel vuoto come nidi di aquile o do rondine. Là tutto è stupore. Si percepisce la vicinanza dell'antica Roma, tra le montagne lontane. Una città molto antica, ma ordinata, pulita e ben tenuta. A volte, sembra un set cinematografico per un film speciale. Sembra una città molto seria, austera, ma sorprendente con le sue decorazioni domestiche, piene di umorismo innocente, come l'annaffiatoio su un altare, i giocattoli tra le plante, la minuscola piazza cittadina, i piccoli e colorati quadri nell sue strade, persino una bicicletta color calypso incastonata in un muro. Si vede che bisogna fare gandi sforze per trasportare un oggetto pesante su per le ripide strade della cità. Dicono che solo gli asini possono portare la spazzatura lungo quelle strade impossibili. Ma che, attraverso di loro, circolano anche molti anziani che vivono in città. Mancava solo un gatto, quindi sarebbe stata possibile una Biancaneve ei sette gatti, invece della scultura Biancaneve ei sette nani. Salutti Riccardo Laziale del mar Tirreno !
Caro Juan, come sempre rimango stupito dal tuo racconto di come hai visto (e interpretato) le immagini sullo schermo o sul monitor. Mi ha colpito molto la frase "... città molto seria, austera, ma sorprendente con le sue decorazioni", dato che anch'io ho avuto quest'impressione. Ad angoli più scuri facevano da contrappeso lati pieni di luce e colore, e poi di nuovo in angoli più scuri... e così dicendo, sempre ora l'uno, ora l'altro. Un carattere forte e fiero Artena. La bicicletta in quel vicolo era molto caratteristica e quella via molto colorata, e poi si è aperta a quel mini-giardino con i nomi delle piante. Bella Artena, forte e fiera. Ma sopratutto orgogliosa. L'hai saputa descrivere in modo magistrale Juan! Ti mando un caloroso abbraccio Riccardo Laziale del Tirreno
Italy is like a candy store, one never knows what place to choose, thanks again for making these videos. I'm wondering why do some people place bottles of water outside their doors?
During my walks in the villages of central Italy, I too have always wondered what the bottles on the doorstep were for. So I asked some ladies. It seems that the bottles are placed to keep the cats away, who sometimes mistake the doors of the villages for bathrooms!
@@StillWanderer Ciao , in verità negli articoli che ho trovato nel web , su questo argomento , si parla di 'leggenda metropolitana'. Alcuni 'esperti' dicono che le bottiglie , servono come invito , ai padroni distratti , a provvedere alla pulizia. I quadrupedi , secondo gli esperti , non si spaventano certo per i riflessi generati dalle bottiglie. Che sia una credenza o che sia un metodo efficace , sta di fatto che , le persone che abitano in questi borghi , dicono che mettono queste bottiglie per allontanare cani e gatti.
Thanks for the answer, I had thought about drinking water for people passing by and perhaps some superstitious reasons, but not that it would keep cats away. Thanks again.
Grazie a Lei caro Severino, e felice che il video sia piaciuto. Sono di quelle parti, zona castelli romani, ma Artena è sempre stupenda ogni volta che ci rivado.
Ciao Micheal, gracias por tus palabras, y siempre me alegra saber que los videos se pueden disfrutar. De hecho, algunos videos más nuevos se han filmado con una configuración y una cámara diferentes (gopro) y la lente es quizás demasiado "ojo de pez". Estoy empezando ahora a volver a un enfoque menos extremo. Algunos videos serán así porque ya los filmé, pero a partir de ahora los más nuevos serán un poco menos extremos. También vi que es demasiado estrecho tal vez
Ah Jeff, you're actually right there. I can imagine those few who don't have the access on the countryside are just the unlucky 2-3% of the population there)
The struggle between Hugo and Jason is starting to shape up as a titanic struggle :) Ciao Hugo) Back in my little town just yesterday evening. I was in north of Italy due to work and while going back I stopped at a little town in Tuscany and filmed it... Perhaps next friday I'll show it. A stunning town, so tiny it was almost comical (!) but absolutely stunning
questi borghi sono carinissimi. Ma quello che da italiana mi fa rodere e' la mancanza di valorizzazione. Eppure basterebbe poco. CI sono video simili sulla francia i borghi sono veramente molto simili pero' li abbelliscono con fiori vasi di ceramica tendine ecc. e fanno benissimo a farlo.
Ciao Fiore, andrebbero più tutelati, sono d'accordo; Artena però mi è piaciuta molto. L'ho trovata una cittadina con un carattere duro ma gentile - alcuni scorci ed alcuni angoli erano magnifici
@@StillWanderer dovrebbero sviluppare pure dell'artigianato locale che venderebbero online pure all'estero. Come fa Deruta per capirci e altri paesini. In questo modo si crea un mercato interno e i borghi farebbero cassa dando la possibilita' di essere piu curati. A me dispiace vedere tali bellezze storiche cosi trascurate sembrano quasi rimasti al dopo guerra. Scusa il mio sfogo. Amo molto queste realta' medievali.
Il problema delle piccole località del Lazio è la vicinanza con Roma...è difficilissimo sottrarre turismo a Roma, per altro io ricordo come erano questi paesini 30 anni fa, e devo dire che oggi è stata fatta una riqualificazione notevole...ti assicuro che era molto peggio!
Ciao proarte, purtroppo è così ... Io sono della zona dei castelli romani e non sono più un giovanotto ormai è ricordo la differenza già a 20 o 30 anni fa. Comunque spero che possano migliorare anche col passare del tempo e anche non essendo borghi molto più noti come altri. Di migliorie ne sono state fatte (non ovunque...ma in molti luoghi si) anche se spesso vedo piccole chicche con potenziali enormi ma che con difficoltà riescono a valorizzarle
Hmmmm... this one seems a little... neglected? Of all the hill towns you’ve shown, this one looks like it could have those 1 euro homes for sale. The views are great, but it appears to be large enough of a town that when enough people leave (sadly), it really shows, because you have more obvious abandoned buildings. Still cool, but not « I want to move there » cool. That said, this represents, in a way, the « honesty » of your channel. Not every town is a gem in Italy (at least, not unanimously), and you show it all. I’ll say it again : Meloni should make you the minister of tourism my friend. Say goodbye to over tourism that’s ruining the Cinque Terre, and say hello to responsible tourism in Tuscany, Lazio and Umbria!
Ahh but Hugo, I just loved Artena instead! It must be my character perhaps, but I adore these kind of towns. Surely not so posh.. and not so polished as many others but with a strong character. . It's like one of those old rough man with a story to tell, as I imagine it. But of course I know what you mean by that. And always glad to know these kind of towns are enjoyed as well, as they are basically the ones that I started with 3 years ago. I took your suggestion by heart and will now ask Mrs. Meloni for the role that I correctly shoud I aspire to... I will let you know. In case, be prepared to be my Vice-Minister my dear Hugo :) We should also draft a plan and an economic aid for Panda 4x4s for these rural towns actually
@@StillWanderer I totally get what you mean, and this is why your channel is great : something for everyone. Mind you, I didn't say «eew, yuck, what a shithole» and turned the vid off! But in the end, this was a bit less to my liking. Likewise, a few months ago, you featured another old town that was almost too perfect, almost as if it was a NEW town, made to look like an old one. That wasn't awesome either. I prefer a happy medium! Either way, it sure beats the run-of-the-mill bland suburbs that popped up in the 60s to 80s here in Canada. And yeah, when you become a minister, I'll gladly play a supporting role. Being Canadian, I'm used to being part of a country where the government spends money it doesn't have, so buying a Panda for every rural family in Italy shouldn't be a problem for me to implement.
@@hugolafhugolaf lol Hugo, being an Italian I can wholeheartdly understand this and also I am quite used being in a country where the governemnt spends money it doesn't have,... But it's even more "artistic" here compared to that, trust me: here sometimes they spend money on things that aren't just...needed. (I was reading the news days ago... and something like this popped up - there was a big uproad as someone found out that some money sent because of covid will be spent on.... stadiums and flowers. Sometimes I just want to pretend it's part of a theatre and a nice funny plot)
@@StillWanderer Sleep easy my friend. Canada is giving incentives for drag-queen summer camps. Yes, for kids. We're fucked. I'm not joking. «A Vancouver theatre that receives taxpayer funding from provincial, federal and local governments is hosting a drag queen camp for kids as young as seven where adults groom them to become drag performers.»
Cinquant'anni fa e più , le vie ed i vicoli dei borghi , erano pieni di vita , di botteghe e negozietti, ora danno l'impressione di essere deserti e dimenticati. Si parla tanto di pnrr e di come i politici non sanno spendere i soldi (?) , che ,magari propongono la costruzione di stadi! Perché non dare (oltre ad altre mille emergenze) degli incentivi ai giovani per ripopolare questi preziosi e magnifici centri storici e le campagne circostanti? In questo modo risolveresti più cose con un solo provvedimento!
Please give this video a thumbs up for all his hard work!

@@StillWanderer yes, we often don't notice the things close to us. "L'erba del vicino é sempre più verde"😉
@@geraldinehadiwidjaja7421 ) molto molto vero Geraldine

Artena looks like a place that rains a lot because of the green on the ground. Makes me wonder if it's slippery to walk when the ground is wet. As always, a wonderful insight to one of the many beautiful towns in Italy. Although I'm more of the type that loves the big city hustle and bustle, I look forward to quiet stays where I can clear the mind and re-energize myself. Good job!!
Haupia, very glad to see you back; indeed, some part of Artena are more in the shadow compared to others parts: I sensed that the sunshine didn't light much some parts. while others near the main church are more blessed in this. I'm preparing for the crowdy towns and cities starting again from this Summer; some will come)
But very glad to know you enjoyed also Artena. A big ciao from here and see you soon
@@StillWanderer Ciao Ric! I've been watching your videos on my TV but I don't know how to post a comment using the remote control. LOL Hey, I'm going to message you through Patreon. Hopefully, it goes through. Buongiornata!!
@@Haupialani Haupia, ahhh ok, I'll be checking then in Patreon) I never tried watching the videos on a TV set actually... I'll try with my home set to see how they are rendered

شيماء! يسعدني دائمًا رؤيتك) مدينة جميلة بالفعل أرتينا ... إنها قريبة جدًا من المكان الذي أتيت منه أيضًا)
أتمنى لك يومًا سعيدًا وأراك قريبًا كما هو الحال دائمًا
Another charming town, another beautiful trip👍
In appearance, those old towns resemble each others, but each of them has its own personality, Artena as well 🤗
Thank you, Riccardo, for your great work, have a happy weekend!
Dear Ioana, ciao. Ahh yes, sometimes they seem similiar but then, just after some small venturing inside, it's all different. Some corners, some alleys... Loved Artena, quite a long walk to reach the top before starting the video though, it wasn't very easy)
WIsh you also a nice Sunday and see you soon as always then. A big ciao
Amazingly beautiful Artena ❤❤, ascending and descending pathways always fascinates me . There is a profound liveliness in its silent atmosphere . And the history which goes back to remote past is amazing . 😊😊
My best wishes to you for a peaceful and wonderful time ahead . Your efforts are really praiseworthy .
Dear Rajyashree, always a pleasure seeing you here) Ahhhh... to climb up before filming honestly wasn't easy at all... I arrived at the top with all the camera and stuff and was literally exahusted and had to relax for a long time. Though... I'm 40 and not 20 anymore, so... it makes sense)
Thanks to you as always Rahyashree and see you at the next one (maybe back in Tuscany)
@@StillWanderer Age is really a factor but the perfection in your work is amazing it is really a rare quality . I have seen so many walking videos but no one can match this channel . Beautiful ❤️❤️
@@rajyashreeyadav68 Thank you Rajyashree, always very happy to read such words to be honest! It's still a hobby for me, but glad it can be appreciated as such!
Bella serata Riccardo 🇦🇹🇮🇹💕......mal sehen was du heute für uns hast.....😉
Ja was soll man schreiben.Wunderbarer Ort 💕mich erfreut es immer wieder wie der kleinste Winkel / Ecke hüsch hergerichtet werden.Deine Drohnen Aufnahmen sind wunderbar.Vielen lieben DANK Riccardo.Deine Mühe...Geduld....und deine Gesundheit sollen dir noch lange erhalten bleiben.
Cia💕🍀🇮🇹🇦🇹 Grazie 🥂 schönes Wochenende noch für dich😉
Liebe Dagmar, es ist immer wieder schön dich hier zu sehen und immer die erste zu kommentieren! Ich bin etwas spät dran, da ich dieses Wochenende zur Arbeit in Norditalien und endlich wieder zu Hause war. Ich bin wirklich gerührt von Ihren Wünschen und Ihrem Segen, und ich sage Ihnen bei dieser Gelegenheit dasselbe.
Ich liebte Artena auch, es ist nicht allzu weit von meiner Heimat entfernt, fand es aber sehr faszinierend. Es ist teils düster, teils glänzend. Ein wahres Juwel.
Wünsche dir einen schönen Sonntag liebe Dagmar und bis nächsten Freitag (vielleicht in der Toskana...) :)

Danke Riccardo 💕das würde mich sehr freuen..... dann bis Freitag 😉
Pass auf dich auf 🙋♀️🍀

Another jewel in your crown of beautiful towns in central Italy. The drone footage just took my breath away, as you can see the other towns down in the valley. Thanks for another great work. I enjoyed the tour. P.S. I saw your video last week but just forgot to leave a comment.
Dear Esther, always a pleasure to see you enjoyed the last addition. Artena is indeed in such a position to command all the valley there, even though I found out that after 3 pm the sun doesn't light it very well and it can be a little gloomy, perhaps only in winter though. In the morning it's instead very well lit. A gem of a town indeed... truly liked it , although reaching the top before filming from down below was quite a struggle)
What a gorgeous place to visit 🙂 Great work my friend 💯👍
Always glad to see you back here dear Artistry, and thanks for your words) I hope to continue with this rythm with this hobby which I truly love. Wish you a nice Sunday
Oi, Ric! Fascinante como toda a Itália. A atmosfera é incrível! Às vezes, acho que você deve sentir o aroma das cozinhas das nonnitas 🥰 Obrigada pelos momentos encantadores. Espero que você esteja saudável e totalmente recuperado. Abraço, Ric! ✨✨
Ahhh sim Mari, você não imagina as conversas que tenho com muitos vovôs e vovós nessas cidades, principalmente quando estou me preparando para filmar ou quando termino. Ou às vezes as cenas são cortadas porque eu troco algumas palavras aqui e ali. Ainda assim, ainda não me ofereceram algo para comer)) Mas às vezes um café foi oferecido)
É realmente uma parte da alegria filmar durante os fins de semana e esquecer minhas lutas diárias no trabalho etc... Eu amo esse hobby e espero poder continuar com esse ritmo.
Desejo um bom domingo querida Mari e até breve como sempre!
It's very pretty! Thank you for the tour!
Grazie my dear Jess! How's the little one? :)
@@StillWanderer she's good!
You?
@@jessicabey275 I've passed some tough days, but now it's much better Jess. Life goes on, with its usual ups and downs
I enjoyed taking this virtual walk with you. Have a great weekend. Greetings👍
thanks!
Love your video. But you I know I wish you could tour inside one of those homes along the way so we could just get a glimpse of what they look like. Would be interesting to see!!
Ciao Carol, this is not the first time that I receive such question.... up until noe I wasn't able to just becuase I didn't want to enter into privacy things.. but I could ask for the permission sometimes , it could be quite interesting indeed... I will try in the future about this. If some old inhabitants decide.it would be surely interesting for the viewers to see how they really are.
Very interesting place. Great tour.
Merhabalar uzun bir zamandan sonra tekrar seyretme fırsatı buldum , bizim ülkemizde çok büyük depremler oldu ve buyuk bir trajedi yaşanıyor . Bu görüntüler beni biraz gerçek gündemden uzaklaştırdı. Her zamanki gibi huzuru geçmiş zamanda buldum İtalya nın klasik kendine has mimarisi o daracık sokaklar , taş duvarla , kendine özgü taş evler saksıda çiçekler ......sanki zam an durmuş ve bir anda gözlerimi kapatıp kendimi o evlerde buldum. Çok teşekkürler ....
Sevgili Bilcen, son zamanlarda seni burada görmedim ve hemen sebebini hayal ettim... Televizyondan korkunç haberleri ve görüntüleri gördük ... korkunçtu demek hiçbir şey söylememektir... Bir memleketten olmak 2009'da olduğu gibi depremlerden de çok zarar gören, sizi belki daha iyi anlıyoruz...
Umarım bu küçük video o zor günlerde en azından birkaç dakikalık bir kaçış ve huzur verebilmiştir... Sırf günümüzün çılgınlığını düşünmemek için bu kasabaları hafta sonları da çekiyorum.
Güçlü olalım ve geleceğin olmasını bekleyelim.
Sana buradan sıcak bir kucaklama ve kocaman bir sıcak selam gönderiyorum
@@StillWanderer çok teşekkürler çok sağolun 🤗

I thought this was a lovely Italian town, and I couldn't help but again feel captivated by its beauty. Every turn unveiled an array of charming sights - from the characterful, rustic buildings to the picturesque valleys nestled in the surrounding hills. The town indeed seemed to be built like layers of a cake, with its various levels that must have challenged the legs but perhaps rewarded the soul? I am wondering out of all of these little villages if you have favorites? I kept a record of my favorites for a while but eventually gave up since almost all of them ended up on the list. 😀
CIao Deana! Always a pleasure to see you back. The correlation about the town being like a layer of a cake is so spot on. It wasn't an easy task to reach the top before starting filming to say the least, it was quite a breath-taking event (in the painful way of course:))
Hard to say which are my favourites... but surely, amongst the latest ones, I must say Picinisco and Navelli; I truly loved Labro for instance... and it's not a famous walk or town, but surely.. it's hard to say. Every one has its own charme, and I'm not writing this to appear a kind of naive or "too kind dude" - some are more favourite than others for sure, but it's hard to say which)
@@StillWanderer Thank you for your dedication and all of your hard work. I hope you give yourself a rest in between walks. This one did look quite difficult! We so appreciate it, though, as you take us along on your journeys. I will go back and watch Picinisco and Labro. All of the small towns are so beautiful. Thanks again.
Great video! Are there many places to eat out? Cafes, trattoria, etc?
Ciao Arturo, I must say that up in the old village I didn't see them actually (in the old town per-se). There are a few a little further from after the filming was finished, in the square down below. I could see a small bar in the square near the end though... but the majority (restaurants, trattorias) are a little downhill from the old town. Still, highly recommend Artena, it's a rough diamond I reckon
Симпатичный городок с интересной историей, уникальным ландшафтом и красивыми видами!
Спасибо Риккардо за хорошую прогулку!
Спасибо, дорогой Пафнутий, всегда рад видеть тебя здесь, мой дорогой друг. Артена тоже очень понравилась... один из тех городов, которые я предпочитаю, если честно - одинокий, мало людей и туристов вокруг. Действительно фантастическое тихое место действительно Artena.
Желаю хороших выходных Пафнутий вам и вашим близким.
Это была утомительная неделя для меня. Я просто отдохну в эти дни
@@StillWanderer да тихий и спокойный городок, а ещё мне понравились картины на некоторых стенах домов, я думаю скорее всего они работы местного художника.
Спасибо Риккардо за добрые слова и вам желаю крепкого здоровья, удачи и хорошо отдохнуть, а также набраться сил.

Как они выносят мусор я видел только 4 контейнера у мерии.. А старики как живут ? Очень красиво, но похоже без молодых это вообще не жизнеспособно.
@@sigizmyndtavricheskii4520 ну наверно в определённые дни и время какая-то уборочная компания собирает мусор.
Старики везде живут.
Schön, dank dir kann ich diese Dörfer auch sehen. Es ist so leer auf den Straßen, wie viele Menschen leben hier noch?
Lieber Frank, was für eine Freude, dich wiederzusehen! Es ist schon eine Weile her, muss ich sagen. Freut mich zu hören, dass alles in Ordnung ist. Eigentlich war es in Artena etwas seltsam, nur wenige Leute, fast niemand. Aber man muss bedenken, dass im historischen Teil vieler Dörfer in Italien oft nur ältere Menschen leben und dass sie nach und nach unbewohnt werden. Die Lage dort oben ... Ich habe gesehen, dass sich der Großteil der Bevölkerung in der neuen Stadt am Fuße der alten befindet :( Es ist traurig, aber das passiert oft ... und ich denke, es wird immer schlimmer in der Zukunft Leider
I didn't think I would find a town as evocative and beautiful as Sorano, but I think this might be it. Gorgeous narrow streets with a story in every stone. I think the stairs would kill me, though!
It's indeed a stunning town, though quite different from Sorano, Ken. It's a bit more "gloomy" Artena, in some misterious way, while Sorano and its surrounding (especially those) are a little "brighter" and the area is less populated and more.... medieval. Just out of the historical town of Artena it's a rather busy and crowdy area :/ But stunning town indeed Ken
ARTENA sembra una visione dell'apostolo Giovanni nel libro dell"Apocalisse: " E vidi il cielo aperto, ed ecco! una città altissima, cuasi impossibile da concepire, sospesa nel vuoto come nidi di aquile o do rondine. Là tutto è stupore. Si percepisce la vicinanza dell'antica Roma, tra le montagne lontane.
Una città molto antica, ma ordinata, pulita e ben tenuta. A volte, sembra un set cinematografico per un film speciale. Sembra una città molto seria, austera, ma sorprendente con le sue decorazioni domestiche, piene di umorismo innocente, come l'annaffiatoio su un altare, i giocattoli tra le plante, la minuscola piazza cittadina, i piccoli e colorati quadri nell sue strade, persino una bicicletta color calypso incastonata in un muro.
Si vede che bisogna fare gandi sforze per trasportare un oggetto pesante su per le ripide strade della cità. Dicono che solo gli asini possono portare la spazzatura lungo quelle strade impossibili. Ma che, attraverso di loro, circolano anche molti anziani che vivono in città.
Mancava solo un gatto, quindi sarebbe stata possibile una Biancaneve ei sette gatti, invece della scultura Biancaneve ei sette nani.
Salutti Riccardo Laziale del mar Tirreno !
Caro Juan, come sempre rimango stupito dal tuo racconto di come hai visto (e interpretato) le immagini sullo schermo o sul monitor.
Mi ha colpito molto la frase "... città molto seria, austera, ma sorprendente con le sue decorazioni", dato che anch'io ho avuto quest'impressione.
Ad angoli più scuri facevano da contrappeso lati pieni di luce e colore, e poi di nuovo in angoli più scuri... e così dicendo, sempre ora l'uno, ora l'altro.
Un carattere forte e fiero Artena. La bicicletta in quel vicolo era molto caratteristica e quella via molto colorata, e poi si è aperta a quel mini-giardino con i nomi delle piante.
Bella Artena, forte e fiera. Ma sopratutto orgogliosa.
L'hai saputa descrivere in modo magistrale Juan!
Ti mando un caloroso abbraccio
Riccardo Laziale del Tirreno
Italy is like a candy store, one never knows what place to choose, thanks again for making these videos.
I'm wondering why do some people place bottles of water outside their doors?
During my walks in the villages of central Italy, I too have always wondered what the bottles on the doorstep were for.
So I asked some ladies.
It seems that the bottles are placed to keep the cats away, who sometimes mistake the doors of the villages for bathrooms!
Thanks to you dear Asbjørn and glad to see you back here. Stefano actully explained the reason which was rather obscured to me as well!
Ciao Stefano, interessante... non me l'ero mai chiesto ma bello scoprirlo
@@StillWanderer Ciao , in verità negli articoli che ho trovato nel web , su questo argomento , si parla di 'leggenda metropolitana'.
Alcuni 'esperti' dicono che le bottiglie , servono come invito , ai padroni distratti , a provvedere alla pulizia.
I quadrupedi , secondo gli esperti , non si spaventano certo per i riflessi generati dalle bottiglie.
Che sia una credenza o che sia un metodo efficace , sta di fatto che , le persone che abitano in questi borghi , dicono che mettono queste bottiglie per allontanare cani e gatti.
Thanks for the answer, I had thought about drinking water for people passing by and perhaps some superstitious reasons, but not that it would keep cats away. Thanks again.
La ringrazio per questo bel video di Artena, che conosco bene (ma non vi abito) perché e' il paese di origine della mia famiglia paterna.
Grazie a Lei caro Severino, e felice che il video sia piaciuto. Sono di quelle parti, zona castelli romani, ma Artena è sempre stupenda ogni volta che ci rivado.
❤ Beautiful 🇮🇹
Thank you Planetizzy)
Me encantan tus videos, son muy completos, pero he de decir que me gustaban mas cuando no tenían ese efecto de "ojo de pez", saludos.
Ciao Micheal, gracias por tus palabras, y siempre me alegra saber que los videos se pueden disfrutar. De hecho, algunos videos más nuevos se han filmado con una configuración y una cámara diferentes (gopro) y la lente es quizás demasiado "ojo de pez". Estoy empezando ahora a volver a un enfoque menos extremo. Algunos videos serán así porque ya los filmé, pero a partir de ahora los más nuevos serán un poco menos extremos.
También vi que es demasiado estrecho tal vez
Ah Artena, where every house has a spectacular view of the countryside
Ah Jeff, you're actually right there. I can imagine those few who don't have the access on the countryside are just the unlucky 2-3% of the population there)
Se solo non avessimo devastato l'intera valle con costruzione sparse a caso e ovunque!

Dovrebbe rientrare tra i borghi più belli d Italia
Daccordissimo Andrea, molto molto bella Artena
Eat your heart out, Statham. First.
The struggle between Hugo and Jason is starting to shape up as a titanic struggle :)
Ciao Hugo) Back in my little town just yesterday evening. I was in north of Italy due to work and while going back I stopped at a little town in Tuscany and filmed it... Perhaps next friday I'll show it. A stunning town, so tiny it was almost comical (!) but absolutely stunning
questi borghi sono carinissimi. Ma quello che da italiana mi fa rodere e' la mancanza di valorizzazione. Eppure basterebbe poco. CI sono video simili sulla francia i borghi sono veramente molto simili pero' li abbelliscono con fiori vasi di ceramica tendine ecc. e fanno benissimo a farlo.
Ciao Fiore, andrebbero più tutelati, sono d'accordo; Artena però mi è piaciuta molto. L'ho trovata una cittadina con un carattere duro ma gentile - alcuni scorci ed alcuni angoli erano magnifici
@@StillWanderer dovrebbero sviluppare pure dell'artigianato locale che venderebbero online pure all'estero. Come fa Deruta per capirci e altri paesini. In questo modo si crea un mercato interno e i borghi farebbero cassa dando la possibilita' di essere piu curati. A me dispiace vedere tali bellezze storiche cosi trascurate sembrano quasi rimasti al dopo guerra. Scusa il mio sfogo. Amo molto queste realta' medievali.
@@fiorefiorellino3857 Sono d'accordo con te Fiore - in effetti è un gran peccato... basterebbe poco, già...
Il problema delle piccole località del Lazio è la vicinanza con Roma...è difficilissimo sottrarre turismo a Roma, per altro io ricordo come erano questi paesini 30 anni fa, e devo dire che oggi è stata fatta una riqualificazione notevole...ti assicuro che era molto peggio!
Ciao proarte, purtroppo è così ... Io sono della zona dei castelli romani e non sono più un giovanotto ormai è ricordo la differenza già a 20 o 30 anni fa. Comunque spero che possano migliorare anche col passare del tempo e anche non essendo borghi molto più noti come altri. Di migliorie ne sono state fatte (non ovunque...ma in molti luoghi si) anche se spesso vedo piccole chicche con potenziali enormi ma che con difficoltà riescono a valorizzarle
Uuuuuh...
Anyone else notice something strange about this town??
Hi Fudd, what exactly? Very curious)
@@StillWanderer for a mountain town like that the doors were beautiful and looked very expensive.
Had more flowers than I would have expected also.
@@fuddcar Indeed Fuddcar, it was a nice discovery for me as well I must say - a mix of many things. Glad to enjoyed it)
Hmmmm... this one seems a little... neglected? Of all the hill towns you’ve shown, this one looks like it could have those 1 euro homes for sale. The views are great, but it appears to be large enough of a town that when enough people leave (sadly), it really shows, because you have more obvious abandoned buildings. Still cool, but not « I want to move there » cool. That said, this represents, in a way, the « honesty » of your channel. Not every town is a gem in Italy (at least, not unanimously), and you show it all. I’ll say it again : Meloni should make you the minister of tourism my friend. Say goodbye to over tourism that’s ruining the Cinque Terre, and say hello to responsible tourism in Tuscany, Lazio and Umbria!
Ahh but Hugo, I just loved Artena instead! It must be my character perhaps, but I adore these kind of towns. Surely not so posh.. and not so polished as many others but with a strong character. . It's like one of those old rough man with a story to tell, as I imagine it. But of course I know what you mean by that. And always glad to know these kind of towns are enjoyed as well, as they are basically the ones that I started with 3 years ago. I took your suggestion by heart and will now ask Mrs. Meloni for the role that I correctly shoud I aspire to... I will let you know. In case, be prepared to be my Vice-Minister my dear Hugo :) We should also draft a plan and an economic aid for Panda 4x4s for these rural towns actually
@@StillWanderer I totally get what you mean, and this is why your channel is great : something for everyone. Mind you, I didn't say «eew, yuck, what a shithole» and turned the vid off! But in the end, this was a bit less to my liking.
Likewise, a few months ago, you featured another old town that was almost too perfect, almost as if it was a NEW town, made to look like an old one. That wasn't awesome either. I prefer a happy medium!
Either way, it sure beats the run-of-the-mill bland suburbs that popped up in the 60s to 80s here in Canada.
And yeah, when you become a minister, I'll gladly play a supporting role. Being Canadian, I'm used to being part of a country where the government spends money it doesn't have, so buying a Panda for every rural family in Italy shouldn't be a problem for me to implement.
@@hugolafhugolaf lol Hugo, being an Italian I can wholeheartdly understand this and also I am quite used being in a country where the governemnt spends money it doesn't have,... But it's even more "artistic" here compared to that, trust me: here sometimes they spend money on things that aren't just...needed.
(I was reading the news days ago... and something like this popped up - there was a big uproad as someone found out that some money sent because of covid will be spent on.... stadiums and flowers. Sometimes I just want to pretend it's part of a theatre and a nice funny plot)
@@StillWanderer Sleep easy my friend. Canada is giving incentives for drag-queen summer camps. Yes, for kids. We're fucked. I'm not joking. «A Vancouver theatre that receives taxpayer funding from provincial, federal and local governments is hosting a drag queen camp for kids as young as seven where adults groom them to become drag performers.»
meravigliosa!!
Bellissima davvero Artena, Sara. Mi è piaciuta molto, prima volta che la visitavo. Ma che scarpinata arrivare fin lassù prima di filmare :)
Cinquant'anni fa e più , le vie ed i vicoli dei borghi , erano pieni di vita , di botteghe e negozietti, ora danno l'impressione di essere deserti e dimenticati.
Si parla tanto di pnrr e di come i politici non sanno spendere i soldi (?) , che ,magari propongono la costruzione di stadi!
Perché non dare (oltre ad altre mille emergenze) degli incentivi ai giovani per ripopolare questi preziosi e magnifici centri storici e le campagne circostanti?
In questo modo risolveresti più cose con un solo provvedimento!
Totalmente d'accordo Stefano...
