An underrated destination but nothing less than an accolade of Italy's primitive heritage, Spello is a Renaissance paragon. Roman arches form the gateway to this hilltop town, characterized by an obsession for flowers and a gift for producing the region's finest olive oil.
In Spello, nearly every window has a flower box, and each courtyard is brimming with whimsical displays of colored blossoms. Look on a map, and you'll find Spello perched on Mount Sebasio in the central region of Umbria, wedged between the neighboring towns of Assisi and Foligno.
