Umbria

SPELLO'S INFIORATE

Main street in Spello covered in flower petals.

Spello is one of the most enchanting and unspoiled towns in Umbria. It is only a short drive from Assisi (overrun with tourists, in my opinion) and has some shops, restaurants and a magnificent view from the top of the town. On Corpus Domini, the 9th Sunday after Easter, the main street in Spello is adorned with flower petals, making an incredible scene of "flower art". The flower path begins at the arch and continues for nearly a mile. It is something not to be missed. The dates for 2018 begin June 3. For more details, click here.
