Sperlonga Italy

Sperlonga is a medieval village built atop a cliff overlooking a stretch of the Mediterranean known as the Tyrrhenian Sea. Though it’s well-known in Italy, most Americans have never heard of the town, and those you might encounter there probably work in Europe or have family ties there that bring them back. Still, it’s one of the Borghi piu belli d’Italia, “the most beautiful villages of Italy,” designated by the Borghi Italia Tourist Network, an organization dedicated to bringing visitors to Italy’s lesser-known cultural wonders. Sperlonga fits the description. The old city is a whitewashed warren of passageways and staircases opening onto cafes and shops, decked in flowers, with a beach-view piazza at the very top where people promenade from sundown until the late hours.
