The Mount Tezio is a mountain (961 m) dell ' Umbria center, located about 10 km north of Perugia. The name Tezio derives from the ancient Romans and the Etruscans , who wandered under the slopes of the mountain to worship the goddess Teti. Archaeological research is currently underway, from which a more conspicuous use of the mountain could emerge from the Etruscan population.

ACQUASPARTA Borgo Medioevale - Umbria - HD
© CLAUDIO MORTINI™◊
E' posta su di un colle a circa 350 m s.l.m. da cui domina la valle del Naia, affluente del Tevere.
E' al centro di un vasto territorio tra il variare delle colline e dei monti prospicienti, ricco di vegetazione e di sorgenti di acque curative e da tavola.
La ricchezza dal punto di vista idrico del suo territorio ne ha da sempre caratterizzato la vocazione termale, tanto che proprio per le sue acque già in epoca romana essa trasse il suo nome: ACQUAS PARTAS, ad indicare la sua posizione tra le sorgenti dell'Amerino e Furapane.
Conserva ancora l'aspetto di un centro medioevale con una suggestiva cinta muraria e una caratteristica Porta Vecchia che nei secoli passati consentiva l'accesso al paese.
Tutt'oggi si può ammirare la piazza restaurata davanti al Palazzo Cesi Il Palazzo Cesi risale alla seconda metà del XVI secolo e all'interno sono conservate iscrizioni romane derivanti dalle rovine di Carsulae. Galileo fu in questo palazzo ospitato dal duca Federico Cesi.
la bellezza del paesaggio, la ricchezza di acque, il clima felice, le memorie storiche ed i monumenti artistici fanno di Acquasparta un luogo di soggiorno ideale.
MONTERIGGIONI Borgo Medioevale - Medieval village Tuscany - HD
© CLAUDIO MORTINI™◊
Situato all’estremità settentrionale del proprio territorio comunale, Monteriggioni occupa la sommità di una dolce collina dalle pendici coltivate a vigne e olivi.
Il castello venne fondato nel secondo decennio del Duecento dalla Repubblica di Siena, con il principale scopo di creare un avamposto difensivo contro la rivale Firenze Per secoli l’insediamento svolse in pieno la funzione per cui era stato creato, respingendo di volta in volta una miriade di assedi e attacchi. La sua funzione militare venne meno a partire dalla metà del Cinquecento, quando l’intero Stato Senese, di cui il nostro borgo faceva parte, venne annesso a quello fiorentino.
Monteriggioni conserva ancora oggi gran parte delle strutture del XIII secolo e si configura come un luogo assolutamente unico nel panorama dei borghi medievali toscani.
La cinta muraria, realizzata in pietra, abbraccia la sommità di una collina con uno sviluppo lineare di circa 570 metri.
Dalla superficie esterna sporgono quattordici torri a pianta rettangolare, mentre una quindicesima è addossata alla cortina interna. La loro imponenza dovette essere assai notevole anche nel Medioevo, tanto da suggerire a Dante una famosa similitudine con i Giganti collocati nell’Inferno: “[…] però che, come su la cerchia tonda / Monteriggion di torri si corona, / così la proda che ‘l pozzo circonda / torreggiavan di mezza persona / li orribil giganti […]” (Inf., XXXI, vv. 40-44).
______________
Located at the northern end of its municipal area, Monteriggioni occupies the top of a gentle hill from the slopes cultivated with vineyards and olive trees.
The castle was founded in the second decade of the thirteenth century by the Republic of Siena, with the main aim of creating a defensive outpost against rival Florence. For centuries, the settlement took place in the middle of the function for which it was created, rejecting each time a myriad of sieges and attacks. Its military function was less from the middle of the sixteenth century, when the whole Senese State, of which our village was part, was annexed to the Florentine.
Monteriggioni still retains much of the thirteenth century structures and is designed as a unique place in the panorama of medieval towns in Tuscany.
The walls, made of stone, embracing the top of a hill with a linear development of about 570 meters.
Fourteen towers protrude from the outer surface with a rectangular plan, while a fifteenth is placed against the inner curtain. Their grandeur had to be very significant in the Middle Ages, much to suggest to Dante a popular similarity with the Giants placed in Hell: [...] However, as of the round / Monteriggion circle is crowned with towers, / so the brink that 'surrounds the well / torreggiavan middle person / giant horrible them [...] (Inf., XXXI, vv. 40-44).
Merano Italy Christmas Market ( Alto Adige / Südtirol ) Christmas In Italy
In this video we'll go out and I'll show you some of my favorite things at the Merano Italy Christmas Market. Each christmas market you go to in Alto Adige / Südtirol has it's own little unique items, but there are quite a few items you can find at each one... and yes even when it comes to food. Bolzano Bozen also is another market to check out, but I have to say I really prefer the one in Merano, and not just because I live here ;) But they are both great. All of the markets in the region are so much fun and so festive. The markets are also a fun thing to see as they are something a little different from the average Italian christmas market (mercatino di natale / weihnachtsmarkt) that you youd find outside of Sudtirol / Alto Adige . Christmas in Italy has many different flavors and these are just a few of them.

Lago Trasimeno, Umbria – My Secret Italian Island!
There aren't many secret places left in Italy, so I was thrilled to discover the amazing island of Maggiore on Lago Trasimeno in Umbria. Italians seem to know about it, but very few foreign tourists make the trip, so lucky you – I've just let you in on the secret!
Quiet hillsides covered in olive trees, lakeside garden cafes, woodland walks, boat trips, lace-making, grilled fish from the lake, and one hotel, where you can wake up to the sound of lapping water – seriously, what are you waiting for?
The wonderful Glynis Charlton shared her secret island with me – you can find out about her Italian writing retreats at
