Today we admire Castel di Tora, Most Beautiful Village In Italy in the province of Rieti, Lazio.
Castel di Tora stretches along the banks of the artificial lake of Turan, surrounded by a crown of dense woods dominated by the Mount Navegna (1506)
From the top, on clear days of the north wind, you can admire the dome of the Basilica of St. Peter in Rome with the naked eye.
In the village, buildings in exposed local stone with wooden roofs and brick roof tiles reveal typical typologies of rural architecture in a context of medieval anthropization.
Stone and water surrounded by the green of pastures and woods: this is Castel di Tora, “a nativity scene that floats on the water”.
