Alessi Outlet step by step~

Alessi, one of the most famous company in metal products. By understanding how to use design, they hired famous designers to design their products and had great success.

As there are outlet shop next to Alessi factory, selling their products with the price cheaper than Alessi shop, so we decided to go their to buy something. Alessi factory, located in Omegna, it takes more than 2 hours from Milan, and need to change the train one time in Novara.



Old train with a “dog door keeper” inside, after I took this photo, it put it’s head from the window “wo wo, no foto”!



A really small train station with nothing there.



The train that we took from Novara to Omegna, old train but still clean with good condition! Not easy to see in Italy~

After arrive to Omegna, there are no signs to show you how to go Alessi factory. Actually there are one arrow with “Alessi -->”, but if you follow that way... I promise you will never arrive to Alessi factory. As we didn’t saw any web-pages share with this information, so I would like to share here.



Follow the sign “information” on the right.



And until you see this place, information center will be on the left, but they will not open on Sat after 1:00pm.



After pass by the “information”, you will see this church, get on the bus there and it will arrive near Alessi factory. (Or you can try to call taxi, just call the number show on the "Taxi" sign, some funny thing will be happen~~)



At first we try to walk by ourself without ask anyone...finally we saw this!! Alessi’s Anna~



Anna Anna!



The front entrance... building with the same appearance as my friend told me... but actually this is not the factory...this is the “Alessi Logistica”, but they dont have any signs to show you how to go Factory...damn! we waste so long time for this...



Finally we follow the pic6 and took bus there... until you see this sign, please get off the bus.



Follow the sign and finally we arrive Alessi factory... the building look like the same as before’s one...



Part of the things that we bought!
