Umbria

Umbria is an Italian region bordering Tuscany, Lazio and Le Marche. Often called the country's green heart, it's known for its medieval hill towns, dense forests and local cuisine, particularly foraged truffles and wines. Hilltop Perugia, the regional capital, is the site of medieval Palazzo dei Priori, housing the Galleria Nazionale dell'Umbria art museum. Pedestrianized Corso Vannucci is the focus of city life.
