Umbria is the only region in Italy that is both landlocked and without bordering other countries.
It's situated in Central Italy and guarantees a lot of beautiful, green views - it's been called as the most beautiful garden in the world.
This is an extremely tranquil place; there is no fear of huge crowds.
There are a lot of significant historical sights in the medieval town of Assisi. St. Francis was born there, and Umbria's a major religious center. In the famous Basilica, there is a large number of important art.
Tasty wines and black truffels, wonderful medieval hill towns (Montefalco, called the Balcony of Umbria, is a great example), ceramics... Lots of enjoyable things for every senses.
