Trevi is an ancient hill town in the Perugia province of the Umbria region in Italy. It is situated on the lower slopes of Monte Serano, overlooking the Clitunno River plain, and lies between Foligno and Spoleto. Known as Trebiae during the Roman era, it was a key point along the Via Flaminia and is rich in historical relics. The town features medieval stone houses, narrow cobblestone alleys, the Romanesque cathedral of Sant’Emiliano, and Renaissance palaces, earning it a place among "Italy's Most Beautiful Villages." Surrounded by olive groves, Trevi is celebrated as the "Olive Oil Capital of Umbria," offering picturesque landscapes and a serene rural charm.

May is a great month to visit Italy; it's already warm, but not too hot. There are a lot of tourists, and the line to the fountain is long. You can expect to wait about 20 minutes. Then they let a certain number of people in for 5-10 minutes, then kick them out. #Italy #Rome #trevi #TreviFontaine
