I can’t decide which I like best…sunrise or sunset. Both look wonderful in Orvieto.
An early morning walk around the edge of town revealed the fields below covered by fog.
The other side of the town, at the end of the day was just as lovely.

Such beautiful photos Debra. We were lucky to visit Orvieto during our recent trip to Italy and it is such a magical place!

Fantastic photos!! Orvietto is a wonderful hilltown and your article reminded me of walking around those old walls and looking down on the early morning fog covered lowlands…thank you!

I vote for sunrise. It’s all beautiful, but that light is about hope and beginnings. I love that.

Yes, I know what you mean. It is much the same here in my little bit of Chianti, particularly this time of year when the sun is low in the sky.

I’ve wanted to go to that region for some time … so some day! Meanwhile, between sunrise and sunset was probably a wonderful day!

I have the same issue, trying to choose between sunrise and sunset. All of these photos are stunning!

I’ve always been a sunset girl but that’s more because I like sleeping too much! Gorgeous photos!

Gorgeous photos! Make me feel like an early morning walk.. Although I do prefer to go jogging just before the sun goes down! But skiing just after dawn is a must..

I’m not a jogger, but I like the sound of early morning skiing.

Such a pretty place! We stumbled upon it once on our way between Rome and Florence and I’m so glad we did! We didn’t spend much time there as it was just a quick stop, but I’d love to stay in the old part. Did you stay in a B&B, or did you just spend the day there?

We stayed at a very pleasant hotel in the main street. I have been several times to Orvieto and will be back there soon.

Why choose? Love and enjoy both. By the way, there was a spectacular sunset in Brisbane yesterday. Jezz

Reblogged this on MLT at Large and commented:
Fellow Italophile Debra has posted some wonderful photos of Orvieto. I loved the place when I was there in June and thought this worth re-blogging. Ciao for now.

I like sunset better. Then again, only because I work so early ever since that I don’t get to see the actual sun rising during workdays.

Beautiful! I was in Italy (Lucania, or should I say Basilicata) for just a few days in September, and already I want to return!
