After leaving Rome, you can admire the splendid views of the Roman countryside from the splendid town of Civita di Bagnoregio, one of the most special places in northern Lazio. Civita di Bagnoregio is located between Lake Bolsena to the west and the Tiber valley to the east, in the spectacular valley of the gullies. The village is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy and is famous for being called "The city that dies". Inhabited by only sixteen people and situated in an isolated position, Civita can only be reached via a pedestrian bridge in reinforced concrete built in 1965 that can only be covered on foot, enjoying a breathtaking view. The cause of its isolation is the progressive erosion of the hill and the surrounding valley, which gave birth to the typical forms of the gullies, clearly visible from different points of the village. Inside the town it is possible to visit different commercial activities, buy typical products, admire the particular urban structure, visit the church of San Donato, which overlooks the main square and which houses the S.S. Wooden crucifix, Palazzo Alemanni, site of the Geological Museum and Landslides, the Bishop's Palace, a mill of the sixteenth century, the remains of the birthplace of St. Bonaventure and the door of Santa Maria.
