Perugia is one of those cities that remains engraved in the heart even in a half day.
From the underground city to the panoramic terraces overlooking a wide landscape, open to discover, already from above,Umbria.
History is transformed into a living experience full of emotions. The Etruscans left their indelible imprint.
The Middle Ages saw the triumph of the large square, the aqueduct with its fountain.
Today Perugia is the university city, but also the city of jazz music and, why not, the city of chocolate.
Young, dynamic and accessible.
Mini metro and escalators make Perugia a car-free city.
