The 20 Most Beautiful Spring Destinations You Should Visit

CASTELLUCCIO, UMBRIA, ITALY

Umbria, the underrated region next to Tuscany, is known as the “green heart” of Italy. In April and May, the countryside becomes dotted with violets, primroses, crocus and red poppies. The little Umbrian town of Castelluccio di Norcia in particular is famous for its spring flowers. The annual Flowering of Castelluccio di Norcia is when almost 6 square miles of grazing land between the Sibillini Mountains turn red, white and blue with thousands of flowers.
