A medieval holy city on a hilltop

[World Heritage Check-in] Medieval Ancient City in Italy: Assisi, the first stop of the National Day trip to Italy! Assisi, a medieval religious town in central Italy. There are many tourists but few Chinese people... [World Heritage Name] "Assisi: Basilica of St. Francis and Other Franciscan Relics" (287 World Heritage Sites checked in by this special forces soldier [World Heritage Tour Summary] Assisi is a slender medieval ancient city surrounded by 5 kilometers of walls. It is also the birthplace of St. Francis, the founder of the Franciscan Order of the Catholic Church. The Basilica of San Francesco was built in 1228, two years after the death of St. Francis. It includes two-story churches and the tomb of St. Francis on the lowest floor. As a model of religious architecture, it led the subsequent development of European architecture and art. The creators of a large number of murals inside are all great artists such as Giotto, mainly telling the idea that all things in the world are one and all people in the world are brothers. [Experience] This small mountain town is a 3-hour train ride from Rome. There are many ancient buildings and many beautiful and interesting art shops in the city, which are worth a walk. I also happened to watch a religious ceremony. The Umbrian plains were so beautiful at night when the lights were on, and the dinner was delicious too! Reasonable price! [Transportation]: From Rome Tiburtina Train Station to Assisi Train Station, there is one train at 14:38 at noon and one at 18:01 at night. After arriving at Assisi train station, go to the station bar to buy bus tickets, 1.3 euros per ticket, only cash is accepted. Then you can get off when you reach the ancient city. (Don’t miss your stop or it’s too far). Recommended for a one night stay.
