Do you only have one day to visit Terni? We’ll give you more than one reason to come back!
Morning: Art, history and flavors
Start your day with a stroll through the historic center of Terni. Explore Corso Tacito, among shops and cafes, and stop at the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, an architectural jewel that combines history and beauty.
Continue to the Basilica of San Valentino, the patron saint of lovers. It’s a perfect place to discover a romantic and spiritual side of the city. Touch the tomb of the saint to bring home some luck in love.
Stop at a typical trattoria and let yourself be won over by the flavors of Terni. Try the ciriole alla ternana, similar to strangozzi, they are seasoned with a simple sauce of garlic, oil, tomato and chili pepper., a game dish or a soup of lentils from Castelluccio.
Never end the meal without tasting the dessert symbol of Terni, the Pampepato! A mix of dried fruit (walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts), honey, chocolate, cinnamon and pepper, baked in the oven.
Afternoon: Nature and Wonder
After lunch, head to the incredible Marmore Falls, one of the most exciting natural spectacles in Italy. Walk along the paths that lead to unique panoramic points and enjoy the spectacle of the waters plunging from 165 meters. Let yourself be enveloped by the magic of the sprays and, if you’re lucky, maybe even spot a rainbow. Check the opening times of the water so as not to miss the wow effect!
