Surreal medieval citadel perched high on a crumbling tufa plateau in the Valley of the Calanchi

Civita di Bagnoregio ("The Dying Town")

Personal Travel Notes & Description

One of Italy's most extraordinary sights, just 20 minutes from Montefiascone. Perched atop a golden tufa cliff slowly eroding over centuries, it is accessible only across an elevated pedestrian suspension footbridge over breathtaking clay canyon badlands.

Insider Tip & Advice

Visit in late afternoon when day-trippers disperse; the golden hour light hitting the calanchi canyons is unforgettable.
