Val di Chiana and Cortona
The Val di Chiana boundaries blurred as the lightness of its dawns, like the glow of the sunset reflected in the motionless sea of Crete, biancane of rare beauty, in the ravines dell'Orcia, which glimmered on the waters of Chiusi and Montepulciano , which sank in the deep mystery of Etruscan civilization, exploring the labyrinth of Porsenna, bouncing on the uneven Cetona and eventually flow into vital sources of Chianciano and San Casciano.
Visiting it means get in tune with his tuning fork that vibrates all agreements: from those of history fades into legend and mystery (the Etruscan civilization, which is woven throughout the self) to that of the pleasure that is being (in miraculous waters of Chianciano Terme, Montepulciano and San Casciano dei Bagni) and greedy enjoyment (the great wines of Montepulciano, the culinary influences of Sinalunga with a delicatessen of the highest lineage, the extra virgin olive Trequanda) than of beauty that is substantiated in the landscape and architecture (exploring Cortona, Sarteano, Torrita di Siena el'aristocratica rural Cetona you will have real dimension) to those of natural suspended between myth (the oasis of Chiusi, alienating the severity of the Monte Cetona ) and harmony of living that is the hallmark of this area, rich of ancient.
The Val di Chiana (from closed to Arezzo) is entirely carved from Maestro della Chiana Canal, built between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries to reclaim the plain impaludatasi during the Middle Ages, now lined with a beautiful bicycle rides suitable for families.
