Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A neighborhood that would have a lot to say but that unfortunately gives the feeling of being totally abandoned. Dirt around buildings that seem to fall on themselves ... but this is the impression that you get when you turn around the whole city that appears dirty and desert (main street without people and shops closed), without in a flowerbed worthy of being called so and so much green on the walls and along the walls thanks to the wealth in parietarua. A city not worth visiting. Better to focus on neighboring countries that were instead happy surprises

The mediaeval quarter of San Pellegrino is superb, so much beautiful 11th-13th century architecture. The unique buildings with an external staircases called “profferli” go from the ground floor to the first floor. Some buildings are linked together via a covered bridge, which forms a passage to the second or first floors, this in turn creates an arch at street level with a sheltered area. Some houses don’t front onto the street and have a shared internal courtyard called a "richiastro". The standout building in the mediaeval quarter is Palazzo degli Alessandri built 13th century, it consists of three floors, numerous arches and dominates Piazza San Pellegrino. Chiesa di San Pellegrino was first mentioned in 1045, however there is very little left of its original appearance due to modifications made in the 19th century. The church was bombed in 1944 and reopened in 1951.
The buildings are beautifully preserved and when walking through this section, it is easy to imagine carts, animals, markets and people in mediaeval times going about their business. Just leave yourself time to wander and soak it all in, it wouldn’t hurt to make sure there is plenty of room on that memory card either.

Viterbo is not one of the mot popular cities in Italy for tourists, but it is absolutely fabulous. The fact that is is not so busy makes it more attractive. A must see in Viterbo the medieval area called Quartiere San Pellegrino. Just roam the streets and feel like a time traveller. There are some hidden gems in this area that will make lasting memories.

I found out after visiting San Pellegrino that it is the biggest original medieval area in the world and it actually is. It is amazing to walk around and get lost in the tiniest streets you have ever seen. We had our baby in his stroller and it was ok on the ancient pavement but in up and down streets we were better off with a baby carrier. Dont miss it.

If you want to explore Italy off the beaten path then you should visit Viterbo.
This lovely town north of Rome is a little gem and the medieval quarter of San Pellegrino is stunning.

The San Pellegrino quarter is one of the best preserved and maintained medieval neighborhoods we've seen in any Italian city. It's charming, clean, and located very near to the cathedral and papal palace.

We had much too little time to see all the attractions in Viterbo, so we selected the San Pellegrino quarter. It is a very charming area with old houses and narrow streets. There is a market Saturday morning, which occupies the central parking lot. But we found a place nearby.
We will come back to Viterbo, next time we are in the area.

Fascinating little quarter. Be aware its an isolated peninsula from the rest of the medieval city and will rquire back tracking our a climb down and up the valley. Makes it very untouristy.

Interesting place, very well preserved, in a town, Viterbo, that is a bit outside of the typical tourist tracks in Italy. In addition to the great medieval architecture, the area has a lot of bars, trattorias, pizzerias and restaurants, places to hang out and enjoy the local and regional cuisine and wine.
