The region
Among the 20 regions of Italy, Umbria is the one that still offers the visitor emotions and surprises. It is rich in natural beauties, unspoiled territories, mineral waters, history among the oldest in Italy (the Umbrians, were in fact among the earliest settlers-invadors of the Italian peninsula), archeological sites, perfectly kept medieval villages, mysticism (think about St Benedict of Norcia, St Francis, and St Claire from Assisi!), great wine and food, friendly yet shy inhabitants that are just learning to deal with tourism.
In other words an ideal place to explore!
