Giardino Segreto
GARDEN
The garden is a total delight, it ha been carefully planned and is lovingly tended. It is possible to distinguish two different areas in the garden: "il giardino della luna" (the garden of the moon) a shadier, more appropriate area for reading, rest and meditation, "il giardino del sole" (the garden of the sun) sunnier and lighter.
In five minutes or so on foot one can leave the walls of Pienza behind and become immersed in the natural beauty of the surrounding Parco Naturalistico della Val d'Orcia. Aside of waving fields of grain, olive groves and vineyards there are areas of protected natural woods teeming with wild boar, deer, pheasant and other animals.

Val d'Orcia
Val d'Orcia, this fascinating oasis of nature and culture, is set among acres of olive groves, oak forests and vineyards. The river that gave its name to the valley is little more than a creek for the better part of the year. Prone to dry up in the summer heat, it becomes, come fall, an... Read more

The year following his papal nomination, he hired the architect Bernardo Rossellino to transform his obscure village into a city. Piazza Pio II opens up in the centre of the little town and is the hub of Pienza’s urban structure. The little Renaissance square was studied to welcome the urban constructions being built at the...

Montepulciano
The history and layout of Montepulciano, nicknamed the “Pearl of the Renaissance”, derives from its strategic position. The town is located south of the province of Siena, between the Valdichiana and Val d’Orcia (at 605m), and was always coveted by Florence, Siena, Perugia and Orvieto. Today, it is surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, and... Read more
Montalcino
It was made famous by Brunello, one of the world’s best red wines. But Montalcino is also a magnificent city of art which, from its hill, dominates the 3000 hectares of vineyards (1500 for Brunello) that have given it fame and wealth.
