In the middle of Italy now and climb up to the hill top medieval town of Assisi. Here is the tomb of the most revered saints of Italy, Saint Francis of Assisi.
We visit the Basilica of St Claire who founded the order of nuns called the "Poor Claires" , as well as the two churches dedicated to St Francis, the lower one containing his tomb.
This place truly inspired a sense of reverence and is inspirational given the relics and holy art works present.
Together with Bethlehem, it is one of the world's most popular Christian pilgrim destinations.
