Urbino

It blew me away!

... for 3 months.
I fell in love with this city. I long to back like one would long for a lost love.

The only tourist attraction is La casa di Rafaello. Urbino is where the famous artist was born.

Otherwise, if you want to experience Italy like a local, not a tourist, come here. No TV’s (I think I saw two playing calcio games the whole time I was there), wonderful porticos and bars… AMAZING people.
You will need to know a lot of spoken Italian though.

Now this is a pearl. No tourits and lots of history. (In Italy there is histoy everywhere though….) We spent a couple of hours here last summer on a day trip from Rimini.

I was only here for a few hours, so I can’t say much about it. I did appreciate the town’s architecture and old world feel.
