Lovely little town on a rock and a unique "duomo"

by effeti - last update: May 9, 2005

Orvieto - a town dominating the valley from his high rock - has more than his cathedral (medieval narrows streets, buildings, romanesque churces).
But the cathedral alone is worth a visit.
The facade is gothic.... but forget the gotic of the northern origins.... The colours and the lights generated here an "italian gothic" that is quite different fron the ancestor.

Pros:"Unique position, worth a vissit for the cathedral alone"
Cons:"You have to park the car in certain places"
In A Nutshell:"Along the highway. Stop there!"
