Cute Orvieto

What the hell, you were going to Rome? - can you ask me. I was, but on my way there i decided to make small stop in strange place called Orvieto. Why? I dont know, maybe because i liked its name?)

You know i havent regret about this decision even for a minute! Orvieto is really cute town. It so tiny, small, bright, and sunny that i didnt want to leave. Main attraction is Duomo (for sure) - extremelly beautiful and huge for this place. Town is situated on the hill, so you can go upsairs by Funiculore (so cute ans small, take it!!) or stairs. All town is very small, so you dont need a lot of time there, but you want it, because it is so amazing.

Do you remember that i mentioned rumor that Tuscany is knowen as the mot beautiful part of Italy. Well,Orvieto is part of Umbria and i can say that i liked it for sure not less than famous Tuscany, even more, maybe)

Also i have to mention local cousine (sure!) First of all this place ois famous for its whitw wine that is called (you not gonna believe) Orvieto (i tried it and i loved it - do the same!- shop at the train station, 5 euro). ALso Umbria is famous for its truffles - so in Orvieto you can et almost everything with it) Well, i tried raviolli already, that's why i stayed with pizza. Do really want me to describe that orgazm of taste that i had?)) But the best part about it is prices there - well, just go and check it out)

You know i spent there just 4 hours and was so impressed that even came back after, but after, now - Rome!
