 visit certainly deserves Viterbo the chief town of province. Dista from the hamlet 24 Kms. For many it is the city of the Popes and the Middle Ages, but you/they can also admire you in the outskirtses archaeological sites etruschi and Romans. To walk in the district medioevale of St. Wandering it will bring back you in the centuries, to the milleduecento, moment of maximum expansion of the city. Splendid S. Lorenzo plaza, better known as Plaza of the Popes, for the presence of the thirteenth-century Papal Building embellished by the Gothic loggia.
