The small village of Bastia Umbra, which develops along the banks of the river Chiascio, just in the heart of the valley that separates Perugia and Assisi, is an outstanding combination of modern architectures and impressive medieval buildings. Idyllically set just in the heart of the fertile plain which extends between Mount Subasio and Assisi, it is a thriving commercial hub and one of the most developed cities of the surrounding area, since it is home to the important UmbriaFiere trade fair district.

Bastia Umbra gathers a remarkably wide array of accommodation facilities, which are able to suit even the most demanding requirements of both tourists and business travellers. Those looking for the utmost comfort and relax will have the possibility to stay at the city's most elegant hotels, which are hosted inside ancient historical palaces or just in the heart of enchanting landscapes, as well as to experience the local residences, which boast excellent price-quality relationships. Bastia Umbra's family-run guest houses welcome guests with the utmost warmth and hospitality, and give them the possibility to taste genuine local specialities from the surrounding area. Business travellers will have the possibility to stay at modern hotels provided with meeting rooms, which are equipped with modern facilities and state-of-the-art technologies.

Bastia Umbra, which has been a thriving trade centre since the nineteenth-century, has welcomed large numbers of both exhibitors and purchasers since 1969, when it hosted the first Fair of Agriculture. Starting from 1980, the local Exhibition Centre has experienced constant growth. Nowadays UmbriaFiere  stages plenty of trade fairs dedicated to agriculture, which attract the largest number of professionals, but also organizes interesting construction, electronics, antique and food and wine trade shows. Furthermore, the Exhibition Centre is often the venue for important conventions, business meetings, public contests and amazing shows.
The city's most representative monuments concentrate in the old town. Not to be missed is the fourteenth-century church of S. Croce, which is situated just in the heart of piazza Mazzini and boasts a splendid white and pink facade which was largely built of local limestone from Monte Subasio. Its interior is embellished by precious frescoes by Bartolomeo Caporali and Tiberio d’Assisi, and also hosts the famous trypthic by Niccolò Alunno.
The tiny village of Rocca Sant’Angelo, which is situated 9 kilometres far from Bastia Umbra, is dominated by an ancient Franciscan monastery whose interior is embellished by splendid frescoes which were realized by Giotto and his pupils in the XIV and XVI centuries.
The city's most famous events are the Palio of St. Michele, which takes place in late September and gathers the inhabitants of the four districts of the city, who perform several challanges and competitions, and the so-called Rinchinata, a religious procession which takes place every Easter.
