A view from midway up Assisi.
The city itself sits on a small mountain overlooking the countryside, giving it regular and spectacular views.

Same view, slightly different direction.
I might try to make a panorama sometime...

Looking over a wall.
It was a bit clowdy, so there's all these "Circle of Life" like rays cascading across the countryside.

Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi
It's a World Heritage Site, and for good reason. The city seems to be very religious, and caters to pilgrims to Saint Francis.

Part of an open columnade outside the Basilica.
This is actually a street, too.

Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi, looking up.
The Basilica is built, like the rest of the city, on a strong incline. This is looking up from the lower part.

More Landscape.
Interesting factoid: this is Umbria, not Tuscany.

Sun Reflecting on Roads
I don't know what they pave them with. Gold? Dreams? Candy?
