Itinerary and highlights
Pienza is a small village in southern Tuscany, in the famous Val d'Orcia! It is located about 20 km east of Montalcino and a few miles west of Montepulciano in the beautiful region of Val d'Orcia south of Siena, among soft and poetic hills and fabulous views. Pienza enjoys a truly strategic position perched on the top of a hill, overlooking the entire valley with a breathtaking view.
This charming village is widely known as the "ideal" city of the Renaissance, created by the great humanist Enea Silvio Piccolomini, who later became Pope Pius II.
There are several interesting places to visit, such as the Cathedral, the Pope's palace, and the suspended garden.
But Pienza is also the city of cheese! Apart from its historical and artistic importance, is also the town of the cheese, the famous pecorino di Pienza for which customers will kindly be guided to experience a little tasting!
The city rises on the crest of a tufa hill between two valleys, in a very suggestive panoramic place; it is a fascinating medieval town with also many Renaissance palaces. Above all the Duomo, with its beautiful frescoes by local artists!
Piazza Grande is the main square. closed by beautiful palaces including the town hall with a beautiful civic tower that can be claimed to enjoy a breathtaking panorama. The famous Vino Nobile di Montepulciano has been celebrated by poets and can be considered one of the main attractions.
Here there is the chance to have a wine-tasting experience and some lunch and enjoy life doing some shopping through the narrow streets of the old town.
