About an hour's drive from Frallarenza in the direction of Viterbo, the medieval village of Civita di Bagnoregio looks like an unreal landscape, created by the gradual subsidence of the land and the erosion of the spur of tufa where resists, a handful of perched and isolated houses, now reachable only by foot through a concrete bridge about 300 meters long.
Civita is an enchanted place where time does not seem to roll over. The total absence of cars makes the atmosphere within Civita even more unreal.
The remains of the village, once the political and religious center of Bagnoregio, are all along the only road that crosses the entire town: Porta St. Mary, the Cathedral of St. Donato, until 1699 Bagnoregio Cathedral, the elegant Palazzo Mazzocchi-Alemanni, Palazzo Bocca.
But the real work of art is the landscape that surrounds the rock, to whose charm the visitor can not steal. The nature, that made so uncertain the future of the village, has eroded and shaped the clay hills, once smooth and accessible, surrounding the town to turn them into extraordinary natural sculptures. On the eastern end of Civita you can best admire the magnificent scenery of the Valley of Calanchi.
