What is the cost to take the train roundtrip from Rome to Italy? What is the name of the train station in Rome?
How long will the trip take each way? How do I get the fastest train i.e. express?

You can visit the following web site , (which has a trip planner that will give you stations, departure times, changes, train numbers, and costs), at: (www.ferroviedellostatato.it/homepage_en.html). Gary
The train will leave from the Termini Station in Rome. Gary
The correct web site: (www.ferroviedellostato.it/homepage_en.html). Sorry for the error. Gary
1. The cost depends on which trains you take and if you buy a discounted ticket (premium trains only). It appears that the cost of the round-trip will be between 18.80 and 40 euro, second class.
2. There are many train stations in Rome; the one you probably want is Termini, the main station, as Gary said. But note that many of the regional trains that you could take also stop at Roma Tiburtina on the way out of town (i.e., after Termini).
3. The trip takes from Rome to Assisi takes from 1 hour 39 minutes to 2 hours and 41 minutes, depending on which trains you take. Note that the fastest trips often involve a connection. I assume the reverse is also true, but I haven't looked.
4. The fastest train depends on the time of day. The regional (slower) trains run all day, but the faster trip solutions do not, so it depends on when you want to leave for Assisi.
As Gary notes, there is no substitute for you going to the Trenitalia or Ferrovie dello Stato website (these both end up in the same place) and doing the trip solution yourself to see the difference in the times and prices, then come back and ask us specific questions. Note that you should choose a date next week; train schedules don't change that much over the year, and if you pick a date too far in the future (generally more than 60 days), some trip solutions won't appear...

Here St. Clare spent her monastic experience from 1212 and founded the Order of St. Clare. In the "small hut of linens in a corner of the house" San Francesco wrote the first draft of the Canticle of the Creatures.
The Lower Church - the entrance in the church is the fine double portal surrounded by three beautiful rose windows and a portico, added in the 15th century.
The austere Romanesque-Gothic plan of the building has the form of a double T-shape.
The interior (unfortunately you cannot take the pictures), which consists of a single nave divided up into five bays, has a double transept and a semi-circular apse. In the dim light ehich pervades the whole church, the star-spangled blue vaults are quite breathtaking.
In the middle part of the nave, a staircase leads down to the Crypt, where the sacred remains of St. Francis are contained in a stone urn.
The most impressive frescoes can be seen in the Chapel of St. Mary Magdalena, by Giotto and his schol. In the Chapel of St. Martin there are some magnificent frescoes painted by Simone Martini, while in the presbytery there are frescoes painted by Giotto and Cimabue.
I only stayed in Assis a few hours; it was a stop during the trip to Florence. I’ve been surprised with the city because I didn’t knew anything from the city and I don’t expected to find a city almost all made of stone and rocks with small streets also in stone with gifts shop in every corner
