Tucked right in the geographical center of the nation, Umbria likes to call itself “the green heart of Italy,” and rightly so. Not only does it possess some of the most fertile farmlands in the country, it also has an imposing ridge of dark-green mountains running its entire length as well as across its northern borders. This means that, unlike in Tuscany, here you can drive along a nice, flat four-lane highway while gawking at the scenery – instead of being INSIDE the scenery, which can sometimes be a little daunting! As you wend your way from one valley to another, you’ll want to stop along the way in some of the most pristine medieval villages Italy has to offer, including Todi, Montefalco, Bevagna, Spello, Trevi, Norcia, Narni and the most unforgettable of them all, Gubbio. And guess what: these aren’t even Umbria’s major attractions! The Big Three are Assisi, birthplace of St. Francis and site of two landmark churches and a foreboding castle; Orvieto, home to what many consider the most perfect gothic church in Italy; and the regional capital, Perugia, famed for its perfectly preserved cobbled streets, its patrician palaces and oh yes, its delicious chocolate!
