Where Should I go: Vigo or Bressanone?
Vigo
Originally a small fishing town, Vigo has grown to become the most populated municipality in the region of Galicia in northwestern Spain. Remnants of the old world still exist in its historic center architecture and plazas, while the commodities of a modern city have blended into its boundaries. The old center remains the hub of activity with plenty to see and do, shopping and dining included.
Bressanone
Nestled within the rolling hills of the Italian countryside, this time capsule of medieval Europe is teeming with extensive culture and history. Located in the north-east of the Trentino-Alto Adige region to the south-east of Vipiteno, Bressanone is the third largest city and oldest town in the province. Moreover, Bressanone also works as the cultural and artistic capital of the region. The first mention of Bressanone as a formal township was in 901 AD when Louis III the Child, then king of Germany, named the territory Prihsna whose name later became Bressanone. Though located in Italy, due to its strong German roots, about 72% of the population speak German as their first language. Because of its vast history, Bressanone has a wide array of landmarks and sights that are just waiting to be explored, such as major ski resort the Plose, the Hofburg, the "Pharmacy Museum," and the Cathedral of Bressanone.
