Photography Tour in Gubbio
The best photos of Gubbio aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Piazza Grande will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Funivia Colle Eletto for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
Gubbio climbs the lower slopes of Monte Ingino in tiers of grey stone buildings connected by steep streets and stairways. The Palazzo dei Consoli, a massive 14th-century Gothic palace dominating the town from its elevated piazza, houses the Eugubine Tablets — seven bronze tablets inscribed in the ancient Umbrian language, among the most important documents of pre-Roman Italy. The Corsa dei Ceri, held each May 15th, is one of Italy's most dramatic traditional festivals.

A photography-focused walk pays attention to reflections, leading lines, and street scenes between the landmarks. Hidden photogenic spots like Funivia Colle Eletto reward those who wander off the main path.
