The region of Lazio in central Italy is probably best known as the home of the Eternal City of Rome, but much of it is rural.  Covering most of west-central Italy, the landscape here transitions from the coast to a broad plain to the foothills of the Apennine Mountains as one moves from west to east.  This drone video by top contributor druno beautifully captures the varied landscapes of the region; particularly beautiful is the rather dramatic way in which the plains give way to the mountains.

Italy's Apennine Mountains isn't a single chain but actually a series of three chains which run down the "boot" of Italy, in most places forming the boundaries between different historical regions.  In this drone video, you'll get an aerial view of some spectacular Apennine landscapes around the town of Castelluccio.  It's located in the far southeastern corner of the province of Perugia, the larger of the two provinces of Umbria; the Emilia-Romagna region lies to the east and Marche to the southeast.

Contributor Enricocif created this beautiful drone video of an important Italian fortress.  Gradara Castle is located in a town of the same name in the Marche region of east-central Italy.  The original structure dates to the 11th century.  Distinguished by its 800 meter (about 2.7k ft.) outer wall, it's one of the biggest tourist attractions in Marche.  Gradaro Castle was also believed to have been the scene of a semi-mythical love story which is part of Dante's Divine Comedy, one of the great works of literature.

AirVuz contributor Alessandrone brings us this excellent drone video of the Italian hilltop town of Trevi.  It's located about a two-hour drive north of Rome in Perugia, one of the main provinces of the Umbria region of Central Italy.  Known for centuries for its fine olive oil, it's situated on the slopes of the foothills of the Apennine Mountains, overlooking the Clitunno River.  The video features footage of some of the top sights of this ancient city, including the Romanesque style Duomo of Sant' Emiliano and the Madonna delle Lacrime.
