Umbria is a central region of Italy that borders Tuscany nevertheless, it’s far less touristy. This is mainly because its infrastructure is less developed, with far fewer trains and highways, but also because of its remote location. However, this makes it even better than Tuscany, as it has just as beautiful landscapes but without lots of tour groups and vacationers.
1. Gubbio and its Festa dei Ceri
Gubbio is a beautiful medieval city, most famous for its annual event, Festa dei Ceri (Candle Race)—one of the top things to do in Umbria. The event is held every year on May 15th to celebrate the 3 patron saints: St Ubaldo, St George, and St Anthony.
