Next stop Spoleto., Charleston's sister city. It took us 8 escalators to come up to this hill town from parking in lower town. The castle/fort known as LA ROCCA required an additional elevator ride. This town wad once the capital of the region and stretched from Rome to the Adriatic on the east coast. The via Flamina goes right through it and is still the main route used today. We were the only ones in the fort and wandered around amongst the displays amazed at the feat of building such a huge structure on such a high hill.
