getting lost in perugia’s winding streets

I spent the morning wandering through Perugia, hoping to find this famous medieval arch and the old aqueduct everyone talks about. The streets here twist and turn so much that my phone’s map gave up on me twice! After climbing what felt like a hundred steps, I finally stumbled onto the arch—honestly, it looked like something out of a movie, with ivy creeping up the stones and locals chatting nearby. But here’s the thing: the aqueduct isn’t even filled with water anymore, it’s just a walkway now! I expected to see water flowing, maybe even hear the sound of it, but nope—just people walking their dogs and students rushing to class. Has anyone else been surprised by how different these historic sites look in real life compared to what we imagine? #Perugia #TravelStories #ItalyAdventures #Travel
