… in the villa district Obermais-Maia Alta
What defines an authentic holiday in Merano? Well … first of all Merano as a backdrop is a clear must! The
spa town in the valley with its splendid art nouveau houses. With the Passer Promenade and the Tappeiner Way, adorned with beautiful flowers and plants of all sorts.
