Orvieto is a charming hilltop town known for its stunning Duomo and beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. The town sits atop a volcanic rock, which gives it a unique character and adds to its breathtaking scenery. Visitors can explore the narrow streets and alleys of the historic center, with its charming shops, cafes, and restaurants.

The main attraction in Orvieto is the Duomo, a magnificent Gothic cathedral that dates back to the 14th century. It is considered one of the most impressive churches in Italy, with stunning frescoes and intricate carvings that adorn its façade and interior. Other popular sights in Orvieto include the Palazzo del Popolo, a medieval palace that now houses a museum, and the Pozzo di San Patrizio, an impressive well that was built in the 16th century.

Orvieto is also known for its excellent wines, particularly the white wine made from the local Grechetto grape. Visitors can explore the vineyards and wineries in the surrounding countryside, or sample the wines in one of the many wine bars and shops in town.
