**WHY GO?**
If you've already been to Rome, a weekend in Tuscia is like stepping into another world: slower, quieter, and deeply authentic. Just a couple of hours from the capital, this underrated region between Lazio and Tuscany offers the perfect antidote to crowds and chaos: natural hot springs, medieval charm, ancient Etruscan wonders, and incredibly genuine local culture.
Begin your journey in ***Tarquinia, where you can walk among UNESCO-listed Etruscan tombs***, their vivid wall paintings offering a rare, intimate glimpse into a mysterious civilization that predates Rome itself. For anyone fascinated by ancient cultures and archaeology, this is a treasure trove.
Next we head to, ***Viterbo, one of Italy’s best-preserved medieval towns,*** where time seems to move differently. Wander the cobbled alleys of San Pellegrino, Europe’s largest intact medieval quarter, and explore the stunning Palazzo dei Papi, once home to 13th-century papal conclaves. The atmosphere is untouched, rich with stories, yet still under the radar of mass tourism.
We cap it off, by ***heading to Saturnia, where the Cascate del Mulino flows freely***, day and night. These warm, turquoise waterfalls are not only completely free to enjoy, but also steeped in history — the same healing waters were used by the Etruscans and Romans thousands of years ago. If you're a lover of thermal baths, this alone is worth the trip.
Between these stops, indulge in seasonal local food, rustic wines, and the warmth of a region that still lives in rhythm with nature and tradition.
So if you're yearning for something authentic, peaceful, and soul-nourishing, this corner of Tuscia is your perfect weekend escape — especially if you’re in love with hot springs, history, and the beauty of places that haven't lost their roots.
