PIENZA
Pienza is the typical Italian small town with picture postcard views all around.
Pienza is a rare example of Renaissance town design. Often described as the ”ideal city” or the “utopian city”, it represents one of the best planned of Renaissance towns, where a model of ideal living and government was attempted, based on the concept of a town able to satisfy the needs of a peaceful and hardworking populace.
In 1996, UNESCO declared the town a World Heritage Site, and in 2004 the entire valley, the Val d'Orcia, was included on the list of UNESCO's World Cultural Landscapes.
Nowadays, Pienza is part of a territorial system called “Parco artistico, naturale e culturale della Val d’Orcia”, which aims to preserve the extraordinary artistic heritage of the five municipalities which constitute it.
The town today makes some of the most famous Pecorino cheese in Italy.
In itself a pearl, it is close to all authentic towns and villages around Siena, and Tuscany’s cultural treasures.
Montepulciano is only 15 minutes by car with its world famous vineyards, Siena a little bit further.
