All the vitality of an economic asset centre in the slopes
of the Subasio
Bastia Umbra distinguishes from every other surrounding country and above all from the near
cities of
Assisi, Spello and
Perugia, for the different character
of its activity. It rises on the lowland underlying the hill of Assisi, and it
is a sparkle economic commerce centre devoted to the industry, the agriculture
and the craftsmanship. Like an antechamber of Assisi, it constitutes almost the
natural complement of it, valorising to the best the material aspects of the
human industriousness. The main features that has made Bastia Umbra famous in
Italy and in the world is its prestigious
Fair Center '' Umbriafiere '', where
periodically take place appointments, conferences, exposures and fairs of
national and international importance. This fair vocation has distant
traditions, that in 1581 in Bastia, begun to have an important fair that
recalled vast crowds from the whole surrounding territory. Bastia has
maintained faith to this ancient tradition, as vital and modern economic
Umbrian fulcrum.
