Meran in South Tyrol: culture, shopping and thermal baths

This worldwide famous thermal and health resort lies at 324 m above sea level in a natural basin where three important valleys meet. Merano is well-known for its unique and exceptional Mediterranean microclimate: a true rarity if you think about its location in the heart of the Alps! The city’s favourable position at the foot of the mountains provides the perfect conditions for the growth of Mediterranean and subtropical plants which make the already splendid gardens and parks even more impressive.

Often called “the Pearl of South Tyrol”, Merano is a resourceful town with thousands of offers all year round: an active cultural centre proposing films, theatre and musical performances, exhibitions and events, an exclusive shopping resort with elegant boutiques and shops under the Arcades and, last but not least, an international thermal and health resort with a long tradition now enhanced by the new Thermal Baths.
