Terni is a large modern city and Saint Valentine's church is on the edge of town.
So it is not so easy to find the church.
“If Saint Valentine had been born in a city in America, they would have built a theme park there.
But as he was born in Italy, you could enter Terni without knowing it was Saint Valentine's hometown," an American friend said to me.
In the square in front of the church, Saint Valentine's Festival is held on February 14.
Many couples, young and old, attend the festival.
Inside, the church looks like any other Italian church, but two baskets overflowing with letters would catch your eye.
The priest has to deal with 50,000 a year.
Of these, 10,000 come from Japan.
Saint Valentine is well known in this country, too.
In spite of its connection to Saint Valentine,Terni has few advantages.
“We wish more tourists would visit Saint Valentine's hometown," a city official says.
The local government hopes to make Terni into a modern city.
They built a new footbridge to link the church with a parking lot for cars and buses.
The Saint Valentine Foundation is working hard to make Terni into more than a city which comes to life only one day a year.
For example, it has helped to organize a concert dinner with TV personalities.
But one of its concerns is not to let the religious meaning of Saint Valentine be lost among the commercial activities.
However, some local people argue that, since the chocolate, cards, and candlelight dinners of Saint Valentine's Day are a huge business the world over, they wourld over, they would be foolish if they did not take their share of it.
