Slow travel, slow food, nature and art: a taste of Umbria

Umbria is Italy's green heart, a small, unique region of beautiful green landscapes and rugged countryside, where tradition and warm hospitality are typical of a lifestyle unchanged for centuries.

It’s the ideal destination for your wedding ceremony, if you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of the more popular areas of Italy. There’s plenty of suggestive venues, from quiet small family-run properties to 5 stars luxurious spa hotels: a magic combination of rural elegance and Italian charme.

 

This lovely welcoming land is a maze of medieval villages, historic towns, hidden fortresses, picturesque hilltop castles. Winding roads lead to fortified battlements, tucked away in the mountains often accessible only by car. It’s also home to wonderful architecture: Perugia, Assisi and Todi have delightful old city centres with ancient buildings and splendidly ornate cathedrals.

 

Umbrian food is simply delicious, traditionally made with local ingredients, like truffles, pork cold cuts, porcini mushrooms and its wonderful world famous red wines from Orvieto, Torgiano and Montefalco.
