Citiva di Bagnoregio and Orvieto

Scroll down to content

Citiva di Bagnoregio means “dying city” but I found so much life and beauty at this little 7th century village that is perched high upon a rock outcropping.

Flower pots everywhere
Little bridges and laneways

These little residents were waiting for some gelato from Anne

The building on the left had lost the back part of the building in a landslide

I totally loved this little gem of a town and the people in it. It’s tiny and will only take an hour to check out all the nooks and crannies.

Orvieto

Orvieto is another beautiful little town perched high on a rock cliff and is located not to far from Citiva di Bagnoregio so we visited it on the same day,

I have had the thirst for adventure and travel my whole life. Recently I took up photography to capture some of the beautiful places, special moments and wonderful people in my life.
