Under the ground
Under the groundOrvieto stands on a block of tufa, and the people living on top of it spent centuries digging into it: cellars, wells, quarries, and pigeon holes cut straight through to the open face of the cliff.
Low passages and stairs in places — if being underground is not your thing, the path round the base of the cliff shows you the same holes from outside.
Orvieto at its real position from Rome, with everywhere else we list behind it — so you can see how far out this one is.
