This is the second time I've been here to see the artistic Holiday Lights that adorn nearly every street in the historic center. Certain areas have themes, the park also has a theme. This year it was a zoo with dozens of huge animals. The city is very walkable, and there are a lot of interesting shops in town to check out as well.

My travel policy: whenever I am walking by and find a church open -- I go in. One never knows when it will be open again. On a Sunday I was fortunate enough to find the door open, so I went in. There was a volunteer guide, and she gave me an insider's view of the architecture and explained the history. As other reviewer's wrote, this was originally a palace for the Longobardi ruler -- there is a wonderful book for sale that shows the floor plans and photos which help to explain the transformation of an ancient 8th C. palace into the present day church. It is a fascinating story. My review can only add on to others' reviews. Worth a visit.
