Discover the beauties of Umbria while you remain home in the midst of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
People in countries around the world are now being asked to practice social distancing—to stay home and avoid crowded places—in order to help “flatten the curve” of the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. These are unusual days, everyone has to give up their regular habits and we are all called to put common sense and civic duty in first place.
While you wait to start traveling again, we want to bring Umbria into your house. There’s a lot to discover about Umbria even from afar. Here is a complete list of virtual tours, videos, live webcams, online collections, readings and digital broadcasts on Umbria that you can enjoy for free. These will keep you (and any youngsters) entertained while we all do our part to ensure that these trying times are one day behind us.
The list is constantly updated and if you have something you’d like to add, please email us at info@letorridibagnara.it .
