Cavour Square

Vercelli is a lovely city center of modest size but with a unique charm: worth seeing are the central Piazza Cavour, the porticoes, the Basilica of Sant’Andrea with the 10th century “Vercelli Book”, the metropolitan cathedral of Sant’Eusebio and the “Arca” exhibition center near the church of San Marco.

Between Greggio and San Nazzaro Sesia, the Cavour canal is about to enter the siphon that makes it pass under the Sesia river. Thanks to this little bridge-lock between the fields, it can be crossed with ease.

A water source runs through the church underground. Looking at the facade, on the right you can see the water flowing. Inside, behind the altar, you can see the underground source.

The prosperous 13th-century Vercelli is still visible in the town's predominantly medieval layout, dominated by its beautiful basilica. In addition, the Sacred Mountains nearby, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, are an interesting tourist destination in this ancient textile region.
