Historic Centre of the City of Pienza

this is one my to go place in Toscane! definitely the best percorino cheese I have ever had in my luge! can’t wait to go back!

The current urban pattern and architecture of Pienza was basically dictated by Pope Pius II because this was his home town, and he had asked two architects from Florence to plan the construction as he wished. Pienza was thus called the “touchstone of Renaissance urban life” and was declared a World Heritage Site in 1996. In our visitors' view, there may not be so many gates - only one small, not spacious street, stretched out to the winding alleys, the center is the church and square, and two gates at both ends of the street mark the boundaries of the town. Major buildings such as churches and the pope's summer palace are built of sandstone, and most of the houses in the alleys are made of red brick. Every household is decorated with flowers on windowsills, balconies and even walls, and the door frames are built with flower bridges, and the fragrance of flowers is filled with air.

Follow the colleagues who are known as Europe Tong to go around, it is really worry-free, but the disadvantage is that when you look at it, you don’t have your brain. You only know the beauty and take it. When you come back, you can’t tell which is the photo. Of course, you can be immersed.

The most beautiful town, every corner is full of literary fan~~~ pienza will never regret it. There was once the birthplace of a papal, full of immortality.

The perfect town, really small, in addition to the beauty of cultural monuments, cheese and cold cutting are also a must, pienza cheese must be eaten! And the restaurant in the old town is worth punching!
