Umbria

Umbria is known as the green heart of Italy and is a land that time forgot. Tranquil, timeless and untouched, Umbria's landscape remains virtually unchanged since the great masters such as Perugino, Luca Signorelli and Piero della Francesca lived there. Birthplace of Francis of Assisi and St. Benedict, there is a spiritual element to Umbria and also a rich artistic and cultural inheritance. It's major towns such as Perugia, Todi, Assisi, Gubbio and Orvieto abound with magnificent works of art and the countryside abounds with rolling hills, olive groves, golden corn and fields of sunflowers.

Le Marche is the third region, alongside Tuscany and Umbria, that makes up the area. and is sometimes translated into English as "The Marches".

The region lies on the eastern side of central Italy, between the Adriatic Sea and the high Apennine mountains and much of it remains unspoilt by the ravages of mass tourism.

In this wonderful region you will find places where time really has stood still. Whether you want to admire masterpieces of Renaissance art and architecture, trek across wild uncharted mountains or hunt out the best of the catch in a Mediterranean fishing port, Le Marche has enough to keep you busy for years. And you will rarely have to jostle with hoardes of other foreign tourists.

Many visitors who come to Le Marche are looking for a taste of the "real" Italy, unsullied by mass tourism, yet welcoming to foreigners - if that's what you want, you won't be disappointed.
