The first sighting of Bagnoregio is just awesome. You can read about this "hill" town at Rick Steves's site and get a more detailed walkthrough given online by Carol Martin Watts and Donald Watts. |
First sighting, zoomed in some. Erosion of the soft tufa rock caused formation. |
Going up. White rock to the right is striking.. |
Only 12 residents remain, but vacation homes are a draw now. |
