URBINO LE MARCHE
When thinking of an artistic Italian city to visit, especially in the central regions, many flock to Florence, Assisi, or Siena.
However, at half the cost, and very rich in art and culture, is Urbino. It is situated in the Le Marche region. It’s a bit off the beaten path when planning a tour throughout Italy but it is a must-visit.
It is full of palaces, Renaissance architecture, art, and narrow streets. In fact, during the 15th and 16th centuries, this town was a cultural capital of the Renaissance. Today it has a vast amount of history and sites to see and it’s much less crowded. Created by italy4travellers
Created by italy4travellers Speaking of off the beaten path, Urbino is not on the main train transit lines. It’s easiest to reach by car from the coast along the Adriatic Sea. From the town of Pesaro, there are busses year round. If you pay a bit extra, you can grab the 45 minute express bus, otherwise it may take longer to arrive there. https://italy4travellers.com/
