Everything can be easily reached by foot in a few minutes!<br \/>\nAlso, many are the museums in town that host unique pieces of the Etruscan and Medieval periods.

Other than art, history, culture, landscapes, Orvieto is also a town rich in events and festivals. Among the most important ones, we<br \/>\nlist Umbria Jazz Winter, a jazz festival that collects visitors from all over the World between Christmas and New Years, Orvieto con Gusto, a wine and food<br \/>\nevent that exalts the amazing culinary tradition of Orvieto, and the Umbria Folk-Festival during the Summer.<\/p>\n<p>Among the most important religious events, we recommend a visit during the Corpus Domini, and the Palombella.
