Varallo (Piedmontese: ''Varal''), commonly known as Varallo Sesia, is a ''comune'' and town of about 7,400 inhabitants in the province of Vercelli in the Piedmont region of Italy. It is situated in Valsesia, at above sea level and some north-northeast of Vercelli and northwest of Novara. Once called Varade, it is divided in two boroughs (Varallo Vecchia and Varallo Nuova) by the Mastallone stream. In 1971 Varallo was awarded the Golden Medal for Military Value for the deeds of its population against the German occupation in the late stages of World War II. ==Geography== The valley of the Sesia is very narrow at this point as it nears its source. Varallo lies on the left bank where the Mastallone flows into the Sesia. The town is surrounded by the foothills of the Alps and is not far from the Monte Rosa, which is visible from the surrounding hills. 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「Varallo Sesia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
