Col de Tende ((イタリア語:Colle di Tenda); elevation 1870 m) is a high mountain pass in the Alps, close to the border between France and Italy, although the highest section of the pass is wholly within France. It separates the Maritime Alps from the Ligurian Alps. It connects Nice and Tende in Alpes-Maritimes with Cuneo in Piedmont. A railway tunnel inaugurated in 1898 and a Road Tunnel inaugurated in 1882 run under the pass. The latter tunnel is 3.2 kilometre long and is among the oldest long road tunnels. French historian François Guizot states that the road was first developed by Phoenicians and later maintained by Greeks and Romans.〔''A Popular History of France From The Earliest Times'', Volume I.〕 ==See also== * List of highest paved roads in Europe * List of mountain passes 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Col de Tende」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
