Riella – Pietrelcina Relaxing

This route takes us firstly to Riella, the area which joins on to the Castello and is one of the older parts of Pietrelcina.

Down this road is the convent of the Franciscan Sisters of The Immaculate who help to look after the Parish Church.

This video also looks at the various restaurants and houses in this area and then moves back up to the main square, turning once again and going down β€˜Corso Di Padre Pio’

It is this street that is used for the stalls and attractions which are set up for the annual festa of Our Lady of Liberty which takes place at the beginning of August.

The video finishes at a popular meeting place next to the main square.
