Todi, a cosy and intimate resort situated south of Perugia, rises on the top of a sweet hill which overlooks the Medium Valley of the river Tiber. Its municipal territory is one of the largest in Umbria, and it gathers plenty of smaller hamlets.
The city, which was settled for the first time during the Etruscan Age, later became a Roman colony, and was then turned into a medieval city-republic. It still retains the aspect it achieved during the Middle Ages, and still cherishes outstanding monuments and sumptuous historical buildings. Todi has recently been included in the famous Cittaslow association for its excellent products and genuine local staples.

Those who decide to spend their holidays in Todi will have the possibility to choose among a remarkably wide array of hotels and guest houses. The local farm houses and bed and breakfasts, which are idyllically set just in the heart of Todi's glorious countryside, are the ideal accommodation facilities for those interested in spending pleasant moments amidst lush hills and sunny landscapes while enjoying a closer touch with nature. Those looking for the utmost privacy and freedom will have the possibility to stay at one of Todi's modern residences. Not to be missed are Todi's typical inns and guest houses, which give guests the possibility to eat tasty traditional specialities from Umbria.

The tour of the city should start from the central Piazza del Popolo, which is commanded by the Gothic Palazzo dei Priori, that was erected between the XIII and the XIV century, Palazzo del Popolo and the adjoining Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo, which is home to the city's Museum-Picture Gallery that in turn cherishes precious archaeological finds dating back to the Etruscan-Roman Age as well as interesting Renaissance artworks, such as a valuable Spanish painting. Not to be missed is the XII-century Duomo (which is also known as Cathedral of St. Annunziata), whose interior cherishes a wonderful sixteenth-century reproduction of the Last Judgment by Ferraù da Faenza. The lovers of history and art won't miss the opportunity to visit the beautiful XIII-century Romanesque Church of St. Fortunato, whose interior contains precious artworks from Giotto's school and whose crypt cherishes the mortal remains of four saints and the tomb of Jacopone da Todi.
Todi is often the venue for amazing festivals and cultural events, such as Todi Arte Festival, which takes place here in August . It is dedicated to several different types of art, such as visual arts, theatre, music and literature.
