I loved Assisi. Funnily enough I didn't have any idea what it would be like, so no expectations to be disappointed - or I suppose fulfilled. I did expect it to be busy, and it was, but it didn't feel particularly crowded or touristy.
The major attraction of course is the Basilica, tomb of St Francis, two levels, great frescos, no photography allowed inside. The town is small, a slightly different overall colour of stonework to either Siena or Arezzo, relaxed, friendly and steep.
A few random photographs. I would definitely go back to Assisi should the opportunity present itself. It was lovely. Note the random statue photo! I see odd statues wherever we go these days.
And then it was on to Rome
