LANDSCAPE
From Porano there is an amazing panoramic view of the Duomo of Orvieto and other natural views of the valleys of the rivers Tevere and Paglia. The historic center is still defined by a ring of medieval walls, largely intact, and thus the village retains the typical fortified, characterized by narrow alleys, steps, and architectural remains from different historical periods.
