The only Italian city whose historic center is crossed by a waterfall... #tuttitaly
The Island of Liri is a small town in the province of Frosinone, in the region of Lazio. This town is unique because its historic center is crossed by a waterfall, creating a breathtaking panorama.
The waterfall of the Island of Liri is formed by the Liri River, which splits into two branches right in the center of the town, creating an island.
Tourist attractions
The so-called "Cascata Grande" stands as a living work of art, a harmonious fusion of the enchantment of nature and the essence of humanity.
This unique spectacle seems unprecedented in Europe, a hidden treasure that leaves anyone who approaches it breathless.
The waterfall is about 27 meters high and offers a spectacular view, especially during periods of high water flow.
In addition to the waterfall, the Island of Liri boasts a rich historical and artistic heritage. In the historic center, you can admire ancient churches and palaces that testify to the history and culture of the town.
Adjacent to the historic center is Boncompagni-Viscogliosi Castle, an imposing medieval fortress that offers a panoramic view of the waterfall and its surroundings.
Gastronomy
Traditional dishes are prepared with high-quality local ingredients. If you visit this charming Italian village, don't miss the opportunity to taste potato gnocchi, fettuccine, chicken with peppers, and "sagne e fagioli" (pasta with beans). And to conclude, a traditional dessert like the delicious ricotta tart or the tempting apple cake is an absolute must.
