The Province of Rieti<\/strong> is at north of Rome. It\u2019s the least culturally rich, but not naturalistically. It is partly formed by the hills of the Sabina<\/strong> covered with olive trees, and partly mountainous with peaks of the Apennines that exceed 2000 meters of altitude. Several dams formed lakes.
Its capital Rieti<\/strong> is a pretty and interesting city that was Roman, located in a plain surrounded by mountains where abounds the waters descending from the summits. It was for a long time an \u00abaquatic\u00bb city with canals. The plain is now drained.
Nearby are pretty mountain villages, lakes, shrines, and natural sites between the Sabine Hills<\/strong> towards Rome, the Reatino<\/strong> further west and the foothills of the Apennines to the north and towards Amatrice to the east.
The shrines of the Valle Santa<\/strong> were especially frequented by Saint Francis.<\/p>\n\n\n
