La Scarzuola
La Scarzuola is a magical place, an architectural complex in Umbria that was once a convent associated with St. Francis of Assisi. In the 19th Century, it was abandoned and left to ruin. But in 1957, the Milanese architect Tomaso Buzzi purchased the site and converted it into a multi-faceted architectural complex mainly built with the remains of the convent. Buzzi built the complex as his interpretation of the ideal city, and it's filled with secret passageways, hidden gardens, and beautiful sculptures. It's a place where you can wander for hours, discovering new things around every corner. And it's the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
