Soriano Nel Cimino, Italy

Serendipity!
How did we end up here? Well, we were nearing the end of our time in Istanbul, decided to check the time share to see if anything had opened up in the region, and saw one for Italy. We grabbed a flight to Rome, and a train to Soriano Nel Cimino.
This is an old town in the hills North of Rome. There are several churches and church bells ring frequently. The view from our 3rd story window is of the 13th century Orsini Castle. Our hotel is 17th century (the pink building in the photo). The town is built on a hilltop and has winding narrow roads and lots of steps. The train track actually goes under the town and out the other side of the hill.
