Abruzzo is known as the “green region of Europe” thanks to the highest dolomite peaks, the Gran Sasso and the Maiella massif.

In Abruzzo events and festivals are mainly related to the tradition and to religious celebrations, such as:
– the feast of Saint Antonio Abate in Collelongo in January
– the “Ritual of the Serpari” in San Domenico in Cocullo every May 1st, where a procession follows the statue of the saint tangled by non-poisonous snaks collected in the surrounding mountains by the serpari (the serpents guardians).
– also on May 1st the Virtues Feast is celebrated in Teramo
– the “Virgin Mary Running Through the Square” in Sulmona ( on Easter Sunday)
– and the Thanksgiving holiday in Introdacqua (November)

In Tornareccio, in the province of Chieti, all year round it is possible to visit A ​​mosaic for Tornareccio, an extraordinary open-air museum where 96 mosaics are installed on the walls of the houses.
