We were surprised by Merano. The city center is really nice to walk, with shops and restaurants on pedestrian only streets. The river walk is perfect for a long stroll and definitely visit the thermas. Without fail do the Tappeiner Promenade. Hike to Swiss Town and take the bus back down.
Great historic covered street but also huge range of shops and eateries.Cool to wander through on a hot day.
Nice shops with portico walkway. Can walk along river also. good cafes and restaurants. We spent a pleasant afternoon there.
What a wonderful place, Merano Spa town is breathtaking and a short visit is not sufficient but gives you a desire to return and stay to take in the alphine scenery and river that South Tyrol is famous for.Cake and coffee in a local cafe followed by a wonderful selection of ice creams make this pure heaven.
Merano is quite beautiful, with the river running through the center of town. The central area is about what you would expect in a city its size, with a reasonably attractive cathedral, plenty of restaurants, and a good deal of activity. You won't be wowed by it, but you will find that it is a very pleasant and relaxing place to be.
Just get out and walk around along the river, eat some gelato, sit on a bench, people watch, and relax with the beautiful scenery all around.
Whether a wet or dry day, Meran is a place worth visiting. Great selection of sights, shops and cafés and a covered arched historic gallery over most of the shopping area for all weathers. Highly recommended.
Pretty town, nice leather goods shops. Cafes with g orgeous cakes and pastries. Lots of buzz , market and lively atmosphere
This is a beautiful old town with tradition still strong . It is pleasant to stroll around and see the old buildings some beautifully restored some still in shabby state , but looking good and fitting in none the less. Its a good working historic town , so everything is here . Lots of great shops , some very good cafes and restaurants . I think you could quite easily spend a half day here shopping and looking around .
I liked walking along the river and admiring the beautiful architecture and the mountains. There were lovely shops which were great for window shopping.
