What's with the flying lion?

[@81STAINLESS]

The lion is one of four bronze sculptures on the Duomo facade which symbolize the four Evangelists. The lion represents St. Mark (San Marco). The other three are the Angel (St. Matthew), the Eagle (St. John) and the Bull (St. Luke). The sculptures are attributed to Maitani and his followers.

Did you not try the famous Orvieto wine?

[@81STAINLESS]

We're glad you enjoyed our video. Isn't Orvieto lovely? Alas, we did not try the wine - I've heard it is excellent. We're not "foodies", so the local cuisine doesn't get reviewed - but I believe roast pigeon is a classic dish in Orvieto - that would have been interesting.
