In Val d'Orcia, which has always been one of the most popular destinations for a holiday in Tuscany, one of the most interesting villages to visit is undoubtedly Pienza. We are in the province of Siena, in an area with a high tourist vocation, where the typical countryside villages blend perfectly with the surrounding landscape, creating a unique mix for which Tuscany is known throughout the world. With its historic center protected by UNESCO, which has declared it a world heritage site, Pienza attracts visitors from all over Italy and beyond, who come here not only to admire unique landscapes, but also to enjoy some of the local delicacies, first of all the famous pecorino di Pienza, as well as of course the gastronomic excellences for which Tuscany is famous, such as extra virgin olive oil and wine.
