Perugia,
the Umbria region's capital, is one of Italy’s best preserved medieval
towns. Founded more than 2000 years ago, it has a long-standing cultural
and artistic tradition, which continues to this day. A walk down the Piazza
IV Novembre, the town's historic main square, will enable you to view
the splendid facades of several medieval and Renaissance structures, including
the town's large and majestic Cathedral . You may also visit the Palazzo
dei Priori, one of Italy's most famous palaces, built in the 13th century
from red and white marble, and which today serves as a cultural center
with music festivals, live concerts, films and other cultural events taking
place throughout the year.
