Itinerario
Perugia, the regional capital, is an ancient city located in central-northern Umbria. The historic center is built on the high hills along the right bank of the Tiber River. We will meet each other and start our walking tour of Perugia exploring its old Roman Ruins. During our tour you will also experience the athmosphere of a medieval Italian hilltown by visiting local handicraft shops and having a walk through typical little alleys. After a lunch break (not included) we will move to Assisi. The focus of our tour there will be the Basilica of Saint Francis with its magnificent frescoes by Giotto (13th - 14th C. ), one of the most important artists of Italy in the Middle Ages.
The upper marble basin has twelve sides divided into twenty-four smooth panels of pink Assisi stone. Each one is separated by an equal number of white Carrara marble statuettes set on ledges between the panels. Some of the figures represent personages from the history of the city and legends, while others are symbolic.
The Rocca Paolina, or Paolina Fortress, is right in the historical centre of Perugia and one can enter via a door at Porta Marzia or the escalator system that connects Piazza Italia with Piazza Partigiani.
The Cathedral of St. Lawrence is located in the historical centre of Perugia on Piazza IV Novembre, its southern façade facing the square. An early church dedicated to the proto-martyr Lawrence, who died in Rome in 258, was built here in the 9th century on top of the old Etruscan-Roman forum of the city. There is no trace of the first building.
The Etruscan monumental arch (III B.C.), North-oriented, belongs to the first City walls. With its 11 m. high and because of its excellent state of preservatino, it is considered as the most impressive of all the ancient Etruria.
The Basilica of Saint Clare is a church dedicated to and contains the remains of Saint Clare of Assisi, a follower of Saint Francis of Assisi and founder of the Order of Poor Ladies, known today as the Order of Saint Clare.

The temple was built in the 1st century by will of Gnaeus Caesius and Titus Caesius Priscus, who were two of the city's quattuorviri and also financed the construction.
