Umbria
South from Florence, north from Rome, is Italy's heart, the geographic centre of the country, Umbria.
Remarkable for its lush hills and mountains, and wonderfully preserved medieval towns.
A long way from either coast, what is to be enjoyed in Umbria is the rolling sea of green. The impressive slopes give way to an even more impressive cluster of medieval towns, among them; Perugia, Orvieto, Gubbio, Assisi, and Spoleto.  
 
Assisi is a town in the province of Perugia, Italy, in the Umbria region, on the western side of Mt. Subasio. It is the birthplace of St. Francis, who founded the Franciscan religious order in the town in 1208. On September 26, 1997 Assisi was struck by the devastating earthquake that shook Umbria. The Basilica of San Francesco d’Assisi was badly damaged by the earthquake. Part of the vault collapsed, killing four people inside the church and carrying with it a fresco by Cimabue. The edifice was closed for two years for restoration.
The Basilica of San Francesco d’Assisi (St. Francis), is a World Heritage Site.

in the photo: the square in front of the basilica and a pinch of the rolling sea of green.

Hi Tsilla

Good repetition of the fg arches with excellent sharpness & colour. Perhaps Id burn in the bg highlights a little? The people add scale. Tfs!
