Shopping a Bolzano: Thun, vino e cioccolato

A must-visit stop is, for example, Thuniversum, the atelier-retail point of the famous artistic ceramics brand Thun, on via Galvani, where you can admire and purchase the pieces that made its history. From the sweetest adoring little angel, hostess of the house, to the majolica stoves, from tea and coffee sets to small charming decorative animals, up to the nativity scene figures: there is only the embarrassment of choice, and the pleasure of giving a welcome gift to others or yourself.
Another place not to miss is Naturalia, on via Brennero 28, a large store of natural food and cosmetics, which testifies to the South Tyroleans’ attention to organic products and body health, and their sense of responsibility towards nature. Inside, foods and all other products are grouped rationally, from fruits and vegetables to personal hygiene and cosmetics items, and for four-legged friends, there are organic feeds that are healthy, tasty, and nutritious.
For sweet tooths, a stop absolutely not to be overlooked is Chocolat Moschen, in Piazza Erbe, a small shop but with endless delights, starting from white, milk, or dark chocolate; pralines, nougats, bonbons, not to mention the enticing little bags, boxes, and gift packages.
Finally, another must are the wines and spirits of South Tyrol, of which you can find a rich selection at the Enoteca Gandolfi, on via Druso, with shelves full of reds, whites, rosés and pleasant tastings that help to discover the deep, heroic culture of this land.
