Umbria's beauty can be enjoyed without too much fuss. Walking by Lake Transimene, biking on hill paths, or simply sitting in a cafe are all possible and, in fact, characteristic of the province's tranquil setting. A voluptuous landscape fixed at the heart of the country, hill tops adorned with century-old towns and villages, rich in agriculture and tradition, is Italy's green beauty, Umbria.
Perhaps it is the evocative nature of the place, or a certain enchanted air (we might almost say "mystic") that you breathe to some extent everywhere, but sooner or later whoever visits Umbria ends up thinking: Saint Francis, that great, gentle, tender and poetic Saint of happiness and meekness could only have been born here in Umbria. more info about Umbria
