Masterpiece of a medieval city ... with the most giant Christmas tree in the world... #tuttitaly
A truly spectacular village, a masterpiece of a medieval city, rich in historical and artistic testimonies and ancient traditions found intact in its folklore and products.
Gubbio is the oldest city in Umbria, as evidenced by the Roman Theater's remains and the Eugubine Tables in the Civic Museum.
Walking through the historic center, you will come across many craft shops where you can buy products related to processing ceramics, leather, iron, and gold.
It is also impossible not to be attracted by the irresistible aromas of typical local products, such as the prized white truffle that accompanies pasta, salami, and cheese.
A curiosity of Gubbio that includes in the Guinness Book of Records is the Christmas tree, undoubtedly the largest in the world. The tree uses the entire façade of Monte Ingino, the mountain that dominates Gubbio, where 450 colored
lights are placed, powered by kilometers of electrical cables. A life-size nativity scene is created at the base to match the tree's grandeur.
We, with our child, had fun discovering every hidden alley of this wonderful village, considered among the 25 most beautiful medieval cities in Europe ...
