CULTURE
Land
If you want to visit the main square (Piazza del Popolo) and all its small alleys, just follow the Corso Matteotti from the “Porta Romana,” and it will lead you directly to the square. If you’re tired from all the touristy stuff, you can take the small elevator – located only 100 m from the main square – down from the small park (don’t dally in the elevator, even though it would be nice to contemplate the magnificent panorama of the valley – you can do that from the park).
To visit: Tempio di Santa Maria della Consolazione – Tempio di San Fortunato – Monumento a Jacopone – Teatro Comunale – Palazzo dei Priori – Palazzo del Capitano – Palazzo del Popolo – Piazza del Popolo – Museo Civico e Pinacoteca – Cattedrale – Parco della Rocca – Monastero delle Lucrezie – Convento di Montesanto – the Roman cistern.
