Umbria
Often referred to as the green heart of Italy, Umbria's beautiful countryside is rich in history, culture, cuisine (especially truffles)... and wine! Bordering Tuscany, Umbria is just a short car or train ride away from Florence and Rome. The region is home to many UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including Assisi, the church of San Damiano, L’eremo delle Carceri, the Santuary of Rivotorto, the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli and Palazzo del Capitano, the church of San Salvatore in Spoleto and the Tempietto del Clitunno.
