Microcosmi è l’app che valorizza il territorio proponendo itinerari e tappe suggerite dai Rotary Club del Distretto 2032, che comprende le province del Basso Piemonte (Alessandria, Asti e Cuneo) e della Liguria (Genova, Imperia, La Spezia e Savona). Il progetto nasce con l’ambizioso obiettivo di offrire uno strumento unico, capace di suggerire percorsi e luoghi selezionati da chi quel territorio lo vive e lo conosce profondamente, per garantire al visitatore un’esperienza autentica e indimenticabile. Un’area di rara bellezza, ricca di cultura, storia e tradizioni, segnata dal passaggio di grandi protagonisti del passato come Annibale e Napoleone. L’app non si limita a presentare le mete più note, ma accompagna alla scoperta di luoghi meno conosciuti al turismo internazionale, autentici “microcosmi” di straordinario valore storico, culturale e paesaggistico. Un’occasione inedita per esplorare le eccellenze del Basso Piemonte e della Liguria. La guida è uno strumento dinamico, costantemente aggiornato e curato dai Rotary Club che ne sono editori. Funzionalità principali L’app consente di: - Filtrare percorsi e tappe per categorie di interesse (cultura, storia, arte, religione, eventi) o tramite ricerca libera. - Effettuare filtraggi per provincia, Rotary Club o modalità di spostamento (a piedi, in bicicletta, in auto). - Accedere direttamente alle proposte turistiche dei singoli Rotary Club del territorio. - Utilizzare un sistema avanzato di geolocalizzazione che mostra la propria posizione sulla mappa e segnala le tappe più vicine. - Applicare filtri per area di interesse nelle vicinanze. - Scoprire una proposta turistica del mese, pensata in base al periodo dell’anno. L’App è parte dell’iniziativa dell’Anno 2021–2022 del Governatore Silvia Scarrone, in collaborazione con la Commissione per la Tutela e lo Sviluppo del Territorio, presieduta da Carlo Zoni.

Visit Sabbioneta is the app of the Ideal City, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, built by the will of Duke Vespasiano Gonzaga with the aim of materializing the Renaissance conception of the Ideal City, where art, architecture, and urban layout represent the highest expression of classicism. This app will accompany you in discovering the history - from its origins to the present day - of the city of Sabbioneta, recognized as one of the "Most Beautiful Villages in Italy" for its uniqueness and beauty. Thanks to an artificial intelligence engine, places and events are described and related to the daily needs, tastes, and interests of tourists, citizens, commuters, or anyone interacting with the city. Visit Sabbioneta will reveal the territory to you with its naturalistic itineraries and cycling routes, and introduce you to the many monuments and places that characterize it: the Museum of Sacred Art, housed in the rectory, the Synagogue, symbolizing Jewish Sabbioneta, the walls, the gates, and the fortress, as essential elements of the urban layout, the religious buildings, the Column with the statue of Minerva, the Gallery of the Ancients, or "Great Corridor," the Garden Palace, also known as "Il Casino," the Ducal Palace, the oldest among the buildings constructed by Vespasiano, and the iconic Teatro all'Antica. A virtual assistant, through advanced technologies such as beacons, geofences, QR codes, will accompany you from the streets to the parks, from the monuments to the interior of museums, providing you with a wide range of possibilities: receiving information tailored to your preferences, organizing visiting itineraries, and participating in events of your interest or interactive gamification. With Visit Sabbioneta, you will always be updated on news and the many scheduled events: music and theater festivals, film screenings, sports or food and wine events. Thanks to this app, you can plan your visit to the Ideal City more effectively, accessing schedules, contacts, and precise addresses of all tourist attractions at any time, as well as the various forms of accommodation in hotels, B&Bs, and residences in the area, along with numerous restaurants, trattorias, pizzerias, ice cream shops, and bars where you can find refreshments and taste local products. Through the native interaction of the most modern virtual reality, augmented reality, and 360° video systems, the app allows immersive and assisted visits to monuments, museums, and individual artworks, both on-site and remotely, in order to make Sabbioneta's culture accessible to the world.
