Valle d'Aosta has the distinction of being Italy's smallest region. Countryside characterizes most of the land, with ski resorts that draw international visitors. Because Valle d'Aosta was once part of the French-speaking principality of Savoy, French is still commonly spoken in this region even today. Medieval castles and clusters of chapels known as "sacri monti" dot the foothills of the Alps just to the north.
