A travel into the territory of Terni, between
ancient wonders and new realities
The whole territory that surrounds
Terni, the second province of
Umbria,
introduces a notable variety and different solutions, perfect for satisfying tourists
needs even the more exigent ones. Some of its places are known from remote
times and are always a destination of an elevated flow of visitors, while other
cities only recently have valorised its own tourist potential.
The district is
dominated by the presence of the city of Terni, full of ancient history and
histories that is able to tell through its signs, symbols and the monuments
dislocated all over its territory.
Terni represents
in
Umbria and in Italy the myth of the modernization, represents a city
that even having firm roots anchored into the past has known how to emerge and
to excel in a very delicate sector, driving the nation toward an attended
industrial future.
It introduces
itself as the city from the two faces and the thousand lives. On one side, to
testify the ancient shine, the Roman finds, the medieval tears, and at the
other side the ultramodern factories. These last onesimpose themselves for their ambivalence; vanguard structures
converted for the production of special materials, but also document of a
radiant epoch in which the whole production of the precious steel entirely
depended on them. The imposing
Great Press was the image of this era, an
essential document of the city that Terni was and the hope for what will be.
