Trentino is renowned for its mountains, such as the Dolomites, which are part of the Alps.<\/p>\n
The region is not so industrialized, and agriculture remains important. The most important produce comprises apples (50% of national production, together with South Tyrol) and other fruits, vegetables and grape.<\/p>\n
