2. Situated in a position dominating the town of Orvieto which sits perched on a volcanic plug, the cathedral's façade is a classic piece of religious construction, with a large rose window, golden mosaics and three huge bronze doors, while inside resides two frescoed chapels decorated by some of the best Italian painters of the period with images of Judgment Day.

3. Orvieto has a labyrinth of grottoes in the silent darkness of the rupe (rock). The distinctive geological nature of the mass of stone on which it stands allowed its inhabitants to dig, in the course of about 2500 years, an incredible number of cavities extending, overlapping and intersecting beneath the modern structure of the city.

About Rom

Rom samlar nästan tretusen år av historia i en stad som går att upptäcka till fots, från Colosseum och Forum till barockpiazzor och Vatikanens konst.

Det antika Rom syns fortfarande öppet i stadsbilden. Colosseum, Forum Romanum och Palatinen ligger tillsammans i stadens hjärta, Pantheon står kvar med sin öppna oculus och rester av tempel och akvedukter dyker upp mellan flerfamiljshusen. På andra sidan Tibern rymmer Vatikanstaten Peterskyrkan, Vatikanmuseerna och Michelangelos fresker i Sixtinska kapellet.

Top-ranked sights in Rom: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
