Italy - Tuscany
Pienza
A Karen Brown Recommendation
From Monticchiello, continue on the back road to Pienza. This is one of our favorite walled hill towns in Tuscany, a real gem that mustn’t be missed. The town is perched on the top of a hill and is pedestrian-only so you need to park your car outside the walls. It is no wonder that the town is so perfect even though so tiny: it was here in the 15th century that Pope Pius II hired a famous architect, Bernardo Rossellino, to totally redesign the town where he was born, making it into a masterpiece. You will find many restaurants if you are inclined to dine.

Romantic Tuscany
Pienza is a marvelous renaissance town in some of the prettiest Tuscany countryside. Nice buildings, flowers at the windows, and the small shops of Pecorino cheese: everything invites You for a stop.
