Borgosesia
A small town on the Sesia River in Piedmont's alpine Valsesia valley, Borgosesia has a café and restaurant scene and a concentration of churches that both exceed what its size might suggest, along with a strong visual character that rewards photography. The largest settlement in the valley, it sits close to the mountains and within reach of UNESCO World Heritage sites in the wider region.
