Sienese countryside beyond imagination
Today we will accompany you to discover an iconic and unique land. The land immortalized by the painters of the Middle Ages and Renaissance has now become an international film set.
The Tuscan landscape par excellence, famous all over the world. We will cross the lunar landscape of the Crete Senesi, along one of the most scenic roads in Italy, before arriving in the Val d’Orcia declared a Unesco World Heritage Site since 2004. An incredible combination of farms, hills dotted with cypresses, meticulously landscaped gardens and vineyards; extraordinarily well preserved historical centers with architectural wonders from the Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance periods. We will discover Pienza, the city built by Pope Pius II in the fifteenth century as a utopian Renaissance city and today famous for its cheese, Pecorino di Pienza. Through other streets with breathtaking views, we will arrive in Montepulciano from the low door to the Piazza Grande with the Palazzo Comunale di Michelozzo and the Duomo with a tasting of the excellent Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Below, the temple of San Biagio by Antonio da Sangallo the Elder, one of the most important churches of the whole Italian Renaissance.
