The Borgo Antico, a surprising visit

In the historical center there is unique and magical atmosphere. The time here seems to have stopped. Children still play on the streets, while seniors get together to talk on the doorsteps of the doors of houses that recall the old days, so full of charm and simple life. The narrow streets are entwined in a maze of alleys, there are ornamental plants on balconies and “mugnali” (external staircases) and many small details filled with charm and history. Towers, palaces, ancient churches and monuments. Following a fascinating journey between narrow alleys, treading the ancient streets paved with local stone, the magic and relive the feeling of a medieval village!
