True jewel (June 24th)
The Val d’Orcia, as captured in this breathtaking photograph, is the most precious and shining of all the jewels in Tuscany’s crown, blending natural splendour with rich history. It’s no wonder that the Val d’Orcia, which is in the province of Siena, in Italy, is a favoured destination for travellers seeking peace and beauty. The charming town of Pienza, known as the “ideal city of the Renaissance”, offers stunning historical gems like the cathedral and Palazzo Piccolomini.
Just a short drive away, San Quirico d’Orcia enchants visitors with its beautifully preserved Horti Leonini gardens and the ancient Collegiata Church. Staying in one of the cozy Val d’Orcia agriturismi provides an authentic taste of Tuscan countryside life, while the best hotels in Val d’Orcia offer luxurious retreats with panoramic views.
It’s not too good to be true, it’s Val d’Orcia.
