The Chiesa di San Martino Vescovo is the parish church of Tromello, located in the province of Pavia and belonging to the diocese of Vigevano. This church, dedicated to Saint Martin of Tours, has a rich history and eclectic architecture. Here are some of its features: Exterior: The facade of the church has a striking cotto structure with frescoes in the lunettes of the portals. Above the portals is a large painting depicting Saint Martin and the Poor Man. The adjacent square bell tower is divided into several levels and has an elegant cupola. Interior: The interior of the church consists of three naves with pillars supporting arches. Notable works of art include: An altarpiece depicting Our Lady of the Rosary, painted by Guglielmo Caccia. Two canvases depicting the Madonna with Saints and the Descent from the Cross, made by Giovanni Battista Crespi. Other paintings by Pietro Ramella and Paolo Maggi.

According to legend, some pilgrims wanted to attend midnight mass in the city on Christmas Eve in 999, but due to the thick fog their boats could not cross the river. Suddenly, a man dressed in red arrived and promised that he would immediately build a bridge in exchange for the first soul to cross the bridge. The man in red was the devil, and only the Archangel Michael, who had come from the nearby church, recognized him. Michael pretended to agree to the deal, but once the bridge was built, a goat crossed it first. The bridge is therefore also known as the Ponte del Diavolo ("Devil's Bridge").

The covered bridge has its origins in Roman times. The current one was constructed in the 14th century and covered in 1583. Upstream of the bridge you can still see pillars of the original bridge, reconstructed after the Second World War. A memorial stone on the bridge tells that Albert Einstein stayed in Pavia for several months and loved the place.

Rebuilt in the mid-fourteenth century to replace the old Roman bridge (whose pillars can still be seen), it connects the historic center of the city with the picturesque medieval village beyond the Ticino, a traditional town of washerwomen, gravel diggers and fishermen. Its feature, which makes it the evocative symbol of Pavia, is its roofing, commissioned by Galeazzo II Visconti in the aftermath of the conquest of the city, and the presence of an eighteenth-century chapel, dedicated to St. John of Nepomuk. Bombed in World War II, the bridge was rebuilt in the early 1950s.

The "anello della lanca del Lido" is a scenic route in the Parco Lombardo della Valle del Ticino, barely 9.08 km long. The route departs from Cascina Cantarana, runs along the banks of the Ticino River, passes the Bosco Grande and later the Lanca del Lido. You only have the purple color if you use the overlay for mountain biking.

Carbonara al Ticino is a municipality in the Italian province of Pavia, located in the Lombardy region. It has approximately 1,418 inhabitants and has an area of 14.78 km². This picturesque town is located in the eastern Lomellina, close to the right bank of the Ticino River. The name “Carbonara” has its origins in the ancient Sylva Carbonaria, a vast forest between the settlement and the Ticino, where charcoal was periodically produced. Carbonara's history dates back to the Lombard period, and it was once a royal fief.

The village and surrounding area are home to a sedentary colony of white storks. The nests are visible in some parts of the city and surrounding areas (for example: at the entrance to the village, for those coming from Gropello Cairoli or Bereguardo, or at the A7 exit of Gropello Cairoli on the left), but in the particularly they are concentrated in the area of Cascina Venara in Zerbolò (signs in the city center). The Cascina is also home to a hostel. For several years, the number of nesting storks has stabilized in about ten pairs that breed and guarantee a good number of newborns every year. Since the species tends to live in groups, the presence of the sedentary colony forces storks, engaged in migration, to stop and, in most cases, to nest and reproduce. (Wikipedia)
