Bevagna, Umbria, Italy Complete Tour

If you'd like to get away from the crowds and explore a classic medieval Italian town, I suggest you head to Bevagna, in the heart of Umbria. You'll find many interesting sites in a small place that's easy to explore. It's only about 600 meters long, 300 meters wide, and it's flat. This is not one of those Italian hill towns that you have to climb up the steps and up and down the hills. It's easy. For a small town, Bevagna truly has a monumental piazza, one of the finest in Umbria. From above, we see the whole town with the largo with the bus stop, and the main piazza, and then the main street extending out from both sides of the piazza, with most of the shops and attractions along Corso Matteotti. The piazza is the central hub tying the town together, with that main street extending out both sides of it. We will save the quieter Corso Amendola for later as we take you from one end of town to the other. Cafés are the social gathering place of any Italian town. And here we've got two cafés on either side of the piazza anchoring the corners of those two main streets. Bar Centrale leading off towards Corso Amendola. And Bar Colonna, leading us in the direction of Corso Matteotti where we shall begin our walking tour of this wonderful little town. http://tourvideos.com/
