Perugia, Italy

Why Walk Perugia

Perugia sits majestically on a hilltop, its Etruscan walls still visible beneath medieval layers. The Corso Vannucci leads to the Piazza IV Novembre, anchored by the Fontana Maggiore and the Gothic Cathedral. The Galleria Nazionale dell'Umbria holds masterworks by Perugino and Pinturicchio. The Etruscan Arch, over 2,300 years old, is one of the finest surviving Etruscan gateways. Perugia is Italy's chocolate capital — Perugina is headquartered here. Escalators built into the hillside pass through the underground Rocca Paolina fortress ruins, connecting the lower and upper town.
