/ Perugia, the main city of Umbria, Italy, offers many attractions including lively pedestrian lanes, palaces, art by native son Perugino, an underground city created in the foundations of a Renaissance palace, several universities, excellent hotels and restaurants. Perugia's location in central Umbria is surrounded by other historic towns easily reached by train, bus or car. While nearby Tuscany is more famous, this region of Umbria is a traveler's delight. We take you inside the cathedral and walk the little lanes that lead from one piazza to the next, following the original medieval layout whose roots reach all the way back to the Etruscans 3,000 years ago.
