Spring

Summer
Summer stretches the day across the center, and evenings linger on terraces while residents and visitors drift between dinner, gelato, and unhurried walks after sunset.

Winter gives the streets a cleaner outline, with shorter days, warm windows, and a calm center that favors early dinners, practical errands, and slow evening returns.
