Via Fontebella, Assisi, Umbria, Italia

Parking, Assisi style.

As always in Italian towns, especially ones in the hills, space is at a premium and you aren't likely to be popular if you try to haul around one of the oversized tank wannabes that inhabit Australian and American roads. That said, there were some vehicles that are larger than you might expect here. Behind the Fiat there is a white Merc which, while not quite an urban tank, is somewhat larger than you might think.

Still, if you're going to the Micromarket ("Prodotti Tipici Umbria"; food which is local to the region) on the left, you're more likely to be going by foot. Or were. Street View shows it having been open until June 2017. By September 2018 the building was vacant and a "To Rent" sign was in the display window. By June 2022 the space was occupied by a business called T'Art, which combines "Arte & Tartufo"; art and truffles. Hey, there are FAR worse combinations...
