2025 Orvieto Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

#Overseas Travel The Church of Sant'Andrea in Orvieto, located next to the town hall, has an impressive dodecagonal tower. This church was built in the 12th century and is more than 800 years old. It is very old. It was designed in Romanesque architectural style and has been rebuilt many times since then. The interior hall is very simple and plain, with a Latin cross structure. The cella houses some 14th-century frescoes. 📍 Church of Sant'Andrea 05018 Orvieto, Province of Terni #ItalianTravel #EuropeanTravel #OverseasTravel

#外游 Orvieto's cathedral⛪️ is particularly dazzling under the slanting sunlight🔅, and its stunning beauty makes me stunned😧 The cathedral is the symbol of this town and one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Italy. Construction began in 1290 and it looks very grand, bringing together a number of architectural styles, including Gothic and Romanesque. There are many ingenious details inside and outside the church, including rose windows, mosaics, bas-reliefs... The mosaics on the exterior walls tell the story and scene of the Coronation of the Virgin. 📍 Duomo di Orvieto Piazza del Duomo, 26, 05018 Orvieto #ItalianTravel #EuropeanTravel #OverseasTravel

#Overseas Travel I love climbing up the tower to see the scenery! There is an ancient tower in Torre del Moro called Torre del Moro, which was built in the late 13th century and is 47 meters high. Climb up to the top terrace of the tower to enjoy a 360-degree magnificent view, and you can see the magnificent cathedral in the city and the nearby countryside. The ticket price is not expensive, and it is worth a visit for those who like to see the scenery. 📍 Torre del Moro Corso Cavour, n° 87, 05018 Orvieto #ItalianTravel #EuropeanTravel #OverseasTravel

#外游 A small hotel in Orvieto with a super convenient location, just opposite the train station and next to the cable car station to the ancient city. The hotel is family-run. Although the rooms are old-fashioned, they are neat, comfortable and full of warmth! There is a small terrace. And the price is very economical. The breakfast is richer than expected, with a variety of homemade cakes, which are traditional and delicious, with Italian flavors. 📍 Albergo Picchio Via Giovanni Salvatori, 17, 05018 Orvieto #Overseas Travel #Italy Travel #European Travel #Cost-Effective Hotel

#外游 The theater in Orvieto, Teatro Mancinelli 🎬, is unexpectedly beautiful😛. The building was commissioned by the famous Roman architect Virginio Vespignani to design it in neoclassical style and was completed in 1863. In 1922, the theater was renamed in honor of the famous composer Luigi Mancinelli. There was a stage play being rehearsed when I visited. It felt quite special to be performing modern plays on the classical stage. 📍 Teatro Mancinelli Corso Cavour, 122, 05018 Orvieto #Overseas Travel #Italian Travel #European Travel

Monteleone d'Orvieto is an old medieval village in the north province of Terni. It is located on one of the hills that separate Orvieto from Città della Pieve; from that area you can admire a breathtaking view that sweeps from Tuscany to Lazio. Its ancient origin seems to date back to Etruscan times. During the Middle Ages, Brandetto Castle was built around the year 1052 as a defensive stronghold. Its remains are still visitable today. Monteleone's name seems to be a tribute to Pope Leo IX, who led the Christian Church during that historical period. #mynovgetaway #thanksgiving #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving

Sitting on top of a big butte of volcanic tuff, Orvieto retains large signs of its Etrurian past, so much so that the first thing that stood out to me was the light brown tones across its alleys and its roads. The Duomo cathedral is the main attraction. The church was built in the 14th century and is dedicated to the Ascending of the Virgin Mary. Aesthetically it might remind you of the more famous Cathedral of Siena, obviously because of its roman-gothic style! This one in Orvieto is one of the most significant in Italy. Don’t miss a visit to another landmark of note, like Torre del Moro for a sunset view of the town and the surrounding hills, Pozzo di San Patrizio and Fortezza Albornoz! Since we are in Umbria, food plays a unique role. Local cuisine is highly appreciated thanks to its cured meats and other traditional dishes. If you’re planning a road trip across Italy, don’t miss this part of the country for its authenticity. #italy #italytravel #italybeauties #umbria #orvieto #awesomepic #travel #town #oldtown

#5月好去地方2025 Civita di Bagnoregio is isolated on the top of the mountain and cut off from the outside world. The prototype of "Castle in the Sky" by Japanese animation master Hayao Miyazaki also comes from here; it is a "ghost town" that has been abandoned for hundreds of years. Because Master Hayao Miyazaki used this city as the theme, he created the animated film "Castle in the Sky", and also revived the deserted city to become the most popular attraction in Italy. From a distance, it looks like a city floating in the sky, as if it is a secret that cannot be described or explored. The Orvieto underground city needs to be transferred to a cable car, which is similar to the cave house in Turkey, but it is not seen due to lack of water. The most peculiar St. Patrick's Well and the spectacular underground city are suitable for human habitation. The countless holes in the cave are the habitats of birds. There is a beautiful church and Patrick's Well nearby, which are the highlights of the visit. It is worth mentioning that the glass and ceramic handicrafts in this elegant town are very beautiful and creative, which amazed me.

Orvieto was my last stop on the Umbria itinerary. After this I was to head to Rome. And luckily for me having somewhat exhausted myself. I was in need of a slow paced destination, preferably less people and more value. Also, from the previous night in the hostel, someone told me about a dish that mixed wine with chicken and is a speciality in Orvieto. I'm a fan of dishes where alcohol makes its way into the food. I was already excited about visiting this place. Orvieto is divided into two parts. The old town and the new. When i arrived at the train station. I was told this was the new town and I made my way to the old town to check into my hostel. That walk alone felt like i was already sightseeing in this authentic hill town. The daytime seems fairly busy. And since I began at the train station. Naturally I could see plenty of tourists around. The evenings were way quieter. The following day was very eventful as i saw some of the best things in Orvieto. The likes of the the National archeological museum, the cathedral, Palazzo del popolo, the museum of Claudio, St. patricks well and Torre del moro. You are likely to discover many other places that i might have missed. But my top recommendation and personal favourite is the underground city. So fascinating. #myhiddengems #orvieto #italy #summer #europe #summerdestinations #hilltown #greatfood #100waysoftravel

📍Via del Duomo, 9, 05018 Orvieto TR, Italy I visited L'Oste del Re, a famous pizza restaurant in Orvieto near Rome!! The pizza was shiny and it was the most delicious pizza I had in Italy👍🏻 #JulyTravelSupportEvent #RomeTravel

This is the Orvieto Cathedral, a representative building of Italian Gothic architecture. I didn't tour the interior separately, but the exterior of the cathedral was really huge and beautiful. In fact, there wasn't much to see, but Orvieto had its own cute feeling, so it was a nice trip near Rome. #JulyTravelSupportEvent #RomeTravel

I went to Orvieto, near Rome, Italy, for a day trip!! It takes about 2 and a half hours from Termini Station. ✨How to get there Take the train from Termini Station to Orte Station. Change trains at Orte Station and go to Orvieto Station. Take the funicular up to arrive at Orvieto!! #JulyTravelSupportEvent #RomeTravel

#TravelWithMe A perfect day trip from Rome is Orvieto, known as the "world's most beautiful city on a hill," which once flourished as a retreat for the Pope. The narrow, winding streets, arches, and rows of low, irregularly shaped houses made of tuff and basalt create a very beautiful sight. After taking a funicular and a small bus to the town on a small hill, you will be greeted by the Duomo with its spectacular façade. Its distinctive stripes, completed over a period of about 300 years, are a sight to behold without ever getting bored. A must-see is the Pozzo di S.Patrizio Well on the right hand side of Piazza Cahen. The well was built in 1527 by order of the Pope at the time to secure water in preparation for a siege. Carved into tuff, the well is 62 meters deep, 13 meters wide, and has two spiral staircases with 248 steps. The stairs are designed so that people won't collide when going down to get water and when carrying it back to the ground. Apparently people used to go down on horses, which is why the stairs are so low. The skylights are impressive, and just going down and up the stairs creates a fantastical space, which is interesting. By the way, in Italy they say that a spendthrift has "pockets like the well of San Patrizo." Perhaps as a reference to this, coins are thrown into the bottom of the well, in hopes that money will accumulate. 　 Orvieto

#Sightseeing 1 hour and 20 minutes from Rome. The impressive Orvieto Cathedral, with its glittering façade and striped façade, was built over three centuries by 33 architects, 152 sculptors, 68 painters and 90 mosaicists. ・The highlight is the San Brizio Chapel, with its murals by Luca Signorelli, who influenced Michelangelo's Last Judgment in the Sistine Chapel. You'll be enchanted by the intricate coloring. ・The façade of the cathedral shines most at dusk. Don't miss the sunset shining on the façade of the cathedral!

| How many colors are there in this sunset?.This is not a fairy tale, this is Umbria, Italy|||Umbria (Italian: Umbria), located in the central part of Italy, with its idyllic countryside and mountains, the picturesque Umbria is known as the "green heart of Italy". At the same time, the beautiful and mysterious medieval mountain villages are also one of the reasons why Umbria is famous. The capital of the region is Perugia, with a population of 150,000. It is 150 kilometers away from Rome, the capital of Italy, and Florence, which is famous for culture, art and fashion. The transportation by car, train or plane is very convenient. In Umbria, art and architecture, city and countryside, everything is so harmonious. Among them, the must-see monuments are the cathedrals of the cities of Orvieto and Spoleto. The grand palaces of Perugia, Todi, and Gubbio; the rectangular cathedral of Assisi, the hometown of St. Francis; the well-preserved medieval towns of Narni, Amelia, Foligno, Città di Castello and Todi; the quiet and bright Lake Trasimeno; the pure and open Narni Valley and the Sibillini Mountains that have preserved many mysterious legends... Everyone who has stopped in Umbria is intoxicated by its ever-changing and distinctive natural scenery. As early as the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, many artists have competed to depict her beauty.

Duomo Di Orvieto is a Roman Catholic cathedral located in the town of Orvieto in the Umbria region of central Italy. It is large in scale and was ordered to be built by Urban IV in the 14th century to commemorate the miracle of the Corpus Christi of Bolsena. It is said that in 1263, in the nearby town of Bolsena, a priest who traveled here doubted the doctrine of transubstantiation, and as a result, he found that his sacramental bread was bleeding a lot, so much so that it stained the altar cloth. This cloth is now stored in the Corpus Christi Chapel of the cathedral.

I visited Orvieto in northern Rome this November. I met two cats while staying at a small hotel. They came into my room and slept without permission, and ate my lemon cake and boiled eggs. I just love it. Really. I traveled for three months and spent the last days with them going back to my home country. All the other days were good, but the most memorable thing now is the cats.
