Balboutet, Italy - Walking Tour (4K UHD)

A hamlet in the municipality of Usseaux, Balboutet is located in Piedmont, north-west of Italy. Here, time has stopped to a rural past made of flowered balconies and stone houses. But the main characters in town are the sun, the sundials, and the swallows...Come see why!
Balboutet is a tiny village next to Usseaux: we’re in the heart of Val Chisone, 50 kilometers from Turin in Piedmont, Italy.
If you want to step into an Alpine fairytale village, this is the place for you! Even swallows think this is a very special place...You’ll be surrounded by stone houses with lovely decorations, wooden balconies and doors, as well as some representations of a rural past not to be forgotten.
Balboutet also celebrates the sun and the passing of time with amazing sundials and some other curious artifacts...Are you ready to discover them?

Looking for more beauty? Let's explore Usseaux! 👉bit.ly/usseaux

[@Notyouraveragesenior]

The things you don't see are what I liked the most. Clean no trash, no graffiti, no overhead power lines, no iron bars on the doors and windows. no cars, except at the parking area. I loved the carpentry work. Obviously a very skilled craftsman in the area. An old village, updated with a fresh vibe.

[@alessandrocrescini]

Just the mountains and the greenery and the sky, and charming houses, is already beauty to admire and observe.

[@Voyatours]

Exactly Alessandro, your comment couldn't have portrayed Balboutet any better!

[@telmapegorete5955]

Deve ser maravilhoso morar neste lugar tão tranquilo e tão lindo amei o vídeo

[@Voyatours]

É verdade mesmo, @Telma. Balboutet foi a vila mais tranquila que conheci até agora na Itália. Gostaria de descobrir outras aldeias como esta no canal?

[@nesrintor8715]

Bitmesini hiç istemedim,bu kadar güzel korunmuş,tertemiz,şehirlerden bile daha güzel,emeği geçen herkesi kutluyorum.💐🦋👏

[@Voyatours]

Kesinlikle! Bu kadar güzel korunmuş, tertemiz yerler bulmak kolay değil.

[@reemsmith3556]

Love Italy , I wish I can visit it again, may God bless the hands of those who built these beautiful houses, and the Engineers who designed it, it’s the most beautiful town, I have ever seen so far, thanks for sharing this video with us, god bless all people living here , love from Australia.

[@Lets_walk_Moscow]

This village looks very cosy 😍

[@Voyatours]

Yes, it is indeed!

[@carolinedevorahstephen7435]

Beautiful mountains & love the charming houses in this village.

[@Voyatours]

Agree Caroline, must be peaceful living in such a quiet area. 🙂

[@manoelagranato5688]

Obrigada,amei 😊

[@Voyatours]

Que legal que você gostou, Manoela. Espero que um dia você visite o Norte da Itália, tem muitas jóias escondidas como Balboutet!

[@liaoliveira2985]

Que lugar maravilhoso, tranquilo e muito lindo.As flores tão viçosas .Isso é um paraíso. Obriga por esse vídeo ❤

[@Voyatours]

Sim, é um lugar mágico mesmo! Cheio de cores e flores por todo o vilarejo 🖼️. Fico feliz que tenhas gostado do vídeo! 🤗 Já pensaste em visitar a Itália um dia?

[@augustaoliveira4033]

Esse lugar passa um tranquilidade. !!!

[@Voyatours]

Debe ser tranquilo vivir en un lugar tan apacible, ¿verdad, Augusta?

[@geraldinehadiwidjaja7421]

This is a beautiful village. Love how the people have the flowers. Worth exploring!

[@Voyatours]

Absolutely, Geraldine! It was incredibly cute, and everything felt so cozy. I noticed it's quite common for the villages in this area, as you'll notice in the tour of Usseaux I just posted. They're just 2-km away from each other.

[@augustaoliveira4033]

Amei esse vilarejo

[@user-xn8pd2re3n]

Like a beautiful medieval fairy tail village so clean more like a german or Swiss mountain village wonderful so old yet very well looked after

[@Voyatours]

Totally agree! It's old yet so well-maintained. Wouldn't seem like Italy, right?

[@Ektor-yj4pu]

@Voyatours In northern italy it's not unusual.

[@Voyatours]

That's correct, Ektor. I was born in the south of Italy but now living in the north, and I definitely notice the difference. I suppose people associate Italy with that southern charm...or maybe I'm just biased 🙂

[@jimberry4871]

Wow. Just amazing!

[@Voyatours]

Pretty surprising, right, Jim? A true hidden gem in Northern Italy! 🙃

[@user-ui1sk2hs5d]

Beautiful village!!!! I love italy!!!!❤❤❤❤

A beautiful village. I really like the sundial and the period drawing of the two women.

[@zp2zn]

где вы увидели деревню, что в вашем понятие деревня?😊

[@sachinsalunke5495]

What a masterclass village

[@Voyatours]

Tiny rural places always hold a certain charm, wouldn't you agree, sachinsalunke?

[@ThillaiSundaramurthy]

unimaginably excellent ..the place, scenes n the video.. 👏💐🙏

[@Voyatours]

Thanks Thillai! Have you ever been to Italy before?

[@San_suh_eh]

Beautiful and peaceful love the ambience this is the kind of place where people must embrace just search the location😊

[@Voyatours]

San_Suh_eh then, you can't miss Usseaux! I just posted the tour. It's super pretty and chill. You'll love it! 😊

[@travisalejandro6690]

great place to visit in the future.

[@Voyatours]

Definitely, Travis. This rural place hold a certain charm....worth a visit for sure.

[@ingriddurden3929]

I could get used to that! what a cute little place. Might be a bit dangerous driving in winter, but the summers must be wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

[@Voyatours]

Absolutely Ingrid! Walking here feels so cozy and warm-highly recommended for anyone who enjoys rural places.

[@augustaoliveira4033]

Estilo bem interior que lindo

[@valguimaraesguimaraes5859]

Que lindo . Piemonte e lugar da Itália com muitos lugarsinhos iguais a este . Únicos. Conheci alguns lugares do Piemonte. Muita gente destes lugares migraram para o Rio Grande do Sul também alem dos da região do Veneto e de outras regiões. Amo isto . É para mostrar que a simplicidade de viver não quer que se more na sujeira e desordem . Enfim cada um sabe do que gosta não ? Beijos no coração para quem curtiu comigo.

[@Voyatours]

Ciao Val Guimaraes 👋, que outros lugares do Piemonte você visitou?

[@elzbietabrzyska6300]

Pięknie wydaje mi się że to bardziej francuskie! 😊❤

[@Voyatours]

To prawda! Molveno ma taki urok, że można by pomyśleć, że jest bardziej francuskie niż włoskie! 😄

[@user-mf5jg8cg8j]

Thank you for this trip, it helped me relax my mind watching and enjoying a lot of beautiful sights❤🌹🌷. My name is Natalie

GRAZIE X QUESTO VIDEO SPERO LO GUARDINO IN TANTI. INTANTO IO MI ORGANIZZO X ANDARE A VISITARE QUESTA MERAVIGLIA IN MOTO CON I MIEI AMICI MOTOCICLISTI QUESTA ESTATE IN ARRIVO TRA POCO.

[@Voyatours]

Grazie mille Ennio. In effetti, spesso non ci rendiamo conto dei tesori che abbiamo proprio vicino a noi...la Val Chisone è un perfetto esempio. A breve distanza troverai anche le altre frazioni di Usseaux, perfette per una gita di un giorno! Buona visita!

[@user-hanju5441]

[@mariethel6301]

Очень красиво . Иногда смотришь и у тебя такая настальгия . Когда ты попадаешь маленькие города в Испании и тебя берёт за душу . Благодарю .

[@Voyatours]

Спасибо, Marie! Вам больше нравится жить в маленькой деревне, как эта, или в большом городе?

[@antonietamentil7866]

La serenidad de un paraiso ...que belleza...caminar y escuchar los cencerros y el agua correr...que paisaje de montaña sacado de una fabula...me da curiosidad saber que hace la gente que vive alli.. hay niños? escuela?a que distancia estas de un hospital?vivo en la Ciudad de Cordoba..Argentina ...saludos

[@Voyatours]

Antonieta, ¡qué descripción tan evocadora! Me has hecho desear estar allí ahora mismo 😀. ¿Tienen lugares similares en Argentina?

[@antonietamentil7866]

si en Argentina tenemes hermosos paisajes de monrañas en mi provincia Cordoba y en la patagonia ...que es el sur del pais...son diferentes las arquitecturas...europa tiene mucha historia por todas partes ...y esos paisajes medievales me facinan .

[@Voyatours]

¡Qué interesante! La zona de Córdoba en la Patagonia suena fascinante. Espero poder ir algún día! 😊 Por cierto, me he dado cuenta de que olvidé responderte: el hospital más cercano está a 20 minutos en coche, y la escuela a 5 minutos. 👍

[@gloriaberthalet3503]

LO TRISTE de ESTOS PUEBLOS es que nunca se ve GENTE son tan HERMOSOS pero SOLITARIOS es una PENA ❤🌹💯👍🏠

[@Voyatours]

Tienes razón, es triste ver pueblos tan hermosos pero tan solitarios. ¿Qué crees que se podría hacer para animarlos un poco y mantener su encanto?

[@lizjulio3047]

Muito bonita a aldeia mas muito silencioso, eu ficaria depressiva ai, lugar que faria uma breve visita , realmente parece que parou no tempo.

[@Voyatours]

Entendo completamente, @liz! A vida em uma vila tão pequena pode não ser a escolha de todos 🙂. Mas é incrível saber que ainda existem esses lugares remotos que parecem ter parado no tempo. 🏞️

[@augustaoliveira4033]

As casas todas tem flores

[@aliwannigerry2060]

Like 371, great impressive footage capturing the beautiful alluring scenery that entice some of the viewers to keep on watching, thanks for sharing and bringing us to this wonderful relaxing place and stay safe always.

[@Voyatours]

Glad you enjoyed Ali, it's definitely a nice place to relax and enjoy the rural scenery.

[@DEN-gg1wk]

That place has no car? ..but i really like the beauty of nature

[@Voyatours]

at 31:20 you can see there's a parking area.

[@augustaoliveira4033]

A limpeza é uma beleza não se vê as ruas sujas isso é chama se povo educado

É verdade! A limpeza das ruas realmente é impressionante. Isso é o que se chama de povo educado.

[@Voyatours]

I filmed it late in the day, right as the sun was setting. Also, it's a very tiny rural community, barely 30 folks living there :)

@@Voyatours C'est très beau mais un peu top rustique pour moi, en plus le terrain est trop accidenté et j'ai des problèmes respiratoires mais par contre je parle l'italien

[@Voyatours]

Tout à fait compris, @monique! Ce sont certainement des points valables...Merci de les avoir mentionnés. 🙂

[@laurenmallon4963]

pretty but where are people? are there shops? places to rent to sleep for nights? places to eat? how do the people make a living? where do they shop?

[@Ektor-yj4pu]

There's probably a more populated village or town nearby.

[@Voyatours]

Yeah, people shop nearby 😉. You can see a hotel ("Nido delle Rondini") at 2:35, along with a tiny trattoria nearby. Not many people around because the village is home to less than 30 inhabitants and some of them were not in the village.

[@user-fk7lg7fg7q]

Esta plore kien esti fatige un uy decur ok
