HELLO THERE!

Today we have made some changes in the design of the blog. First, we have changed the backgroung and use a picture that represent our trip to Trento, because as you know we are going to go to Trento the 11th of March.

Then, we changed the title to: Thinking about Trento, because the entries of our blog are about things we will see there and in addition the teacher assigned us the topic of the economy of Trento to explain it to the class. 

We put more pictures to make the blog more colourful instead of boring (from our point of view, obviously).

María will not come to Trento but me (Elena) yes, so we have talk about what we can do to have active the blog from two places (Trento and Granada) and this is our plan:

María will be posting things about what they will be doing in class and me will be telling you the things that we are doing there and posting some pictures if i have internet connection, if not when I came back to Granada I will post it all. 

See you soon!

ECONOMY OF TRENTO

The city owes much of its unique economy to its position along the main communication route between Italy and Northern Europe and to the Adige river which prior to its diversion in the mid-19th century ran through the center of the city.
The Adige river was formerly a navigable river and one of the main commercial routes in the Alps. The original course of the river is now covered by the Via Torre Vanga, Via Torre Verde and the Via Alessandro Manzoni.

The share of services (financial intermediation and real estate, public administration, community services and activities of households) in total gross value added is higher than the Italian average.

- Tourism is vital and mostly related to the exploitation of natural amenities, sky resorts, etc.
- The share of agriculture is also higher than average, while the importance of industry is lower than in the rest of Italy. It´s concentrating on valleys.

It exists 862 exploitation dedicated to the ecological agriculture.



The principal activity it´s concentrating in the flats areas and take precendence the smallholdings.
