Limone sul Garda, Italy Walking Tour – The Lemon Town of Lake Garda (4K HDR – Captions)

    Squeezed between sheer cliffs and Lake Garda, Limone was reachable only by boat until 1932 — isolation that made it famous twice: for the world’s northernmost lemon gardens, and for a longevity gene in its residents’ blood. Join me for a 2-mile walk through the old port and the historic Limonaia del Castèl.

    🏛️ ABOUT LIMONE SUL GARDA
    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
    Despite the lemons everywhere, Limone’s name likely comes from the Latin “limen” — boundary — marking the old border between Brescia and the Bishopric of Trento. Monks brought citrus here in the 13th century, and the town’s terraced limonaie became the northernmost commercial lemon gardens on Earth, shipping fruit to Germany, Poland and Russia until disease, southern competition and the brutal winter of 1928–29 ended the trade. Centuries of isolation also preserved something remarkable: in 1979, researchers found Apolipoprotein A-1 Milano in residents’ blood — a heart-protecting mutation traced to a single 17th-century couple that has helped a dozen of the town’s 1,000 residents pass 100.

    1. Colours are oversaturated and I don’t think it's a problem of my monitor but rather of the source. Somebody chime in to confirm or refute my view.
