Today dawned sunny and warm, and we were off early to the "dying town" of Civita di Bagnoreggio in the province of Lazio. This little village qualifies as t,he smallest town in Italy with only 20 year-round inhabitants. The town is built with volcanic tufa rock, which erodes easily, and in the 1990s a bridge had to be built to link the hilltop with the rest of Bagnoreggio. It was quite a steep walk up to the village, but once we got to the top it was well worth the effort, everywhere we turned there was a photo op. Above are a few of those photos.
