Discover Sulmona: Italy’s Hidden Gem in the Heart of Abruzzo ❤️

+ A Delicious Pizzelle Recipe

Thank you to everyone who completed the Flavor of Italy survey. We are working through all the responses, but one thing was abundantly clear: everyone wants to learn about off the beaten path, unique places in Italy. This weekend, we headed down to Molise and we stopped in Sulmona, Abruzzo on the way back: just the kind of place you've all been asking about!

Nestled in the heart of the Apennines, Sulmona is one of Italy’s best-kept secrets. This charming town in the Abruzzo region, surrounded by the towering peaks of the Gran Sasso and Majella massif, offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. While lesser-known than Tuscany or the Amalfi Coast, Sulmona rewards visitors with an authentic Italian experience, stunning architecture, delectable cuisine, and a fascinating past that stretches back to ancient Rome.
