Location
Tuscany: Val d'Orcia
Val d'Orcia's cultural landscape reflects Renaissance humanist principles from the 14th and 15th centuries. The area features fortified hilltop towns along the Via Francigena, the ancient pilgrimage route to Rome. Under Siena's influence, artists' depictions of the 'perfect landscape' in frescoes inspired actual environmental modifications.
The region showcases extraordinary diversity with its patchwork of fields, vineyards, and distinctive clay hills forming characteristic gullies and rounded reliefs. The extinct volcanoes of Radicofani and Monte Amiata have enriched the soil, whilst thermal springs dot the landscape.
The iconic cypress trees create visual harmony, standing as natural landmarks that have become synonymous with the Tuscan countryside.
