Cortina d'Ampezzo, affectionately known as the 'Queen of the Dolomites', is a picturesque gem nestled in the heart of the Northern Italian Alps, in the Veneto region. Its striking beauty owes much to its prime location, surrounded by majestic snow-capped peaks and verdant alpine forests. Visitors are drawn to this elite winter sports haven not only for its extensive high-quality skiing routes - which once served as the scenic backdrop to the 1956 Winter Olympics - but also for its luxurious offering of high-end shops, charming cafes, and much sought-after Italian gastronomic experiences. Summertime reveals a different facet to its charm, attracting outdoor enthusiasts for hiking, rock climbing, and mountain biking, all awash in a panorama akin to a master artist's canvas. The town's old-world charm is reflected in its traditional Tyrolean-style wood-and-stone architecture, making Cortina d'Ampezzo a quintessentially romantic alpine getaway.
