(1) Do you know the Umbria Region?

I have just decided to present my Italian Region: Umbria. This Region is placed in the centre of Italy and it is full of woods (forests) so it is called "il cuore verde dell'Italia" (the green heart of Italy). The foreigns usually know Assisi such as only the city of Umbria because it was the birth city of S. Francesco. But I want to speak about other towns that I suggest you visit. I can begin to talk abaut my birth city: Spoleto. You can reach it by train from Rome in an hour and a half. This town is perched on a hill (S Elia Hill). It is a Romanesque town where you can find a beautiful castle (fortress) and especially you can visit the Romanesque aqueduct that is over 80 m high. The name of the castle is (Rocca Albornoziana) because it was build by Cardinal Albornoz and in that castle the daugther of Papa Borgia (Lucrezia Borgia) spent much time (you can see it in Borgias's series).
