Orvieto

An ancient city perched a top the flat summit of a mountain, Orvieto is a hidden masterpiece.



With an amazing clock tower at the peak of the main street, this small town holds nothing but medieval delight for visitors. The town is still today surrounded by its defensive walls and the city is built so close to the edge, it has landings almost cliff side. 

It is home to a stunningly unique cathedral with stripes of white and a greenish black. We had some time to explore this quaint town, with sides streets to get lost down but always the Main Street to find your way back to.
