beginning as a rural activity to the dawning of the
technological age, is the theme of the Oil Museum

shows how oil has been produced in rural society for
centuries.

All the villages surrounding Lake Garda offer a wide
chioce of restaurants, trattorie, pizzerie, winebar and
pianobars for who wants to enjoy the local food and
enjoy the magical evening views of the lake.
I recommed
moving away from the lake if you wish to find some of
the best local restaurants. I found that Caprino
Veronese offers some very good pizzerie and trattorie. I
recommed Ristorante Al Vignol,
Pizzeria Alle Querce
and Ristorante Cima 11.
