vintage market in Portobuffolè. April, Sunday 13th


Portobuffolè is the smallest town in Treviso province. just 800 people are living there. however, it's a charming little corner, with a quite important artistic and historical value, in spite of the small dimensions.
in 1300, a noblewoman called Gaia da Camino received the town as a wedding gift from her husband (what a nice gift, a town!) an it seems that made its beauty and importance grow in the following years. now we still can see elegant buildings from XIV-XVI sec.






we visited on a cloudy sunday. the green was greener than usual, the sky whimsical like it should be in april.
every second sunday of the month, an antiques market is held. i think the town makes a beautiful frame for it.

we wandered for the tiny streets. our eyes alternately catched by a funny object or a frescoed façade, an old toy or a nicely shaped window.











we eventually saw a cat on a leash. and a wisteria forest.









we bought another lambretta advertising from 1967 and took an analogue selfie in a vintage mirror.
