Pretty town in the Sky

by moacha - last update: Jul 29, 2007

Duomo/Cattedrale

The north 120km in Rome, Orvieto swell up the land into the plain.
The history of Orvieto is old and goes back to the Etruria age before the B.C. ancient Roman age.
The golden age was built as a pope's isolated village in the 13th century.
This towm is so small that the end of a town to another end does not have no less than 2km.
There is magnificent Duomo at the center, for such a small town . It is so big!
Duomo is the symbol of this town.

Alleyway to the center of this town

The rows of houses along the street which goes to the west from Duomo leave the medieval images.
It is intolerably attractive for me,on the ground of my favorite stones.
There is called " Quartiere Vecchio "
Probably, you will be good to enjoy a stroll.

The view from this town

If you go to the corner of this town, you can see the splendid countryside surrounding Orvirto.
These views are so wonderful.
It is as if magic, I have the feeling which am in clouds.
I lapse into the illusion which am looking down on the mountains and the town from the sky.

In case like this, you can feel the most charm of this town.
