Perugia, up on the hills
I will be here on July 2nd through July 7th.
What must I see and do? Where should I eat? How close to Florence am I? How much by train to get to Florence for a day or two? What are the low cost carriers if I want to fly to Sicily for a day?
Also up for meeting anyone there, since I am working and will be by myself.
Hi,
You may have to set aside more time to Sicily. 2-3 days. If you were in Calabria you could get the boat to Messina in 20 minuets. Sicily is well worth the extra effort.
Enjoy
Bye.
Hi there,

First, just have a walk through historical cenre of Perugia, its narrow streets,churchs, squares,try its trattorias, cafes,enjoy very tasty meals and very good wines...for info. just go to the tourism office in Piazza IV novembre and ask for brochures,...

One of the most impressive buildings in Perugia is the Palazzo dei Priori, the town hall built in medieval times. Construction began in the 13th century, and expansions were added in the 14th and 15th centuries. If you have the opportunity, go inside and take a gander at the spectacular Sala dei Notari, with its frescoes and murals.
The imposing Gothic construction from 14th century was rebuilt by Carlo Maderno in the first half of the 17th century. On either side of the bare facade are buttreses which continue around to the sides of the church. An elegant late 16th century portal and a double flight of steps decorate the facade.
The enormous stark interior of the church contains side chapels. The fourth chapel on the right is a part of the original building and contains an altar frontal by Antonio di Antonio di Duccio.The transept chapels contain many votive frescoes. Works of art include an 18th century organ, the Tomb of Elisabetta Cantucci - carved by Algardi, the Tomb of Danti family, the splendid tomb of Pope Benedict XI, the work of pupil of Arnolfo di Cambio.
The apse is lit by a large window, 23 meters in hight, beautifully decorated by Fra' Bartolomeo di Pietro and Mariotto di Nardo.

Q: Accommodation, Transport, Things to see and do "My wife and I will be in Perugia in mid Jan 2013. My wife has mobility issues and at times will need to be in a wheel chair. After..."
A: "Perugia is pretty hilly. You might want to rethink your base. How about Lucca? It's flat and would be more accessible to a wheelchair. Just a thought."
