This area is steeped in history and culture, providing a tranquil alternative to the bustling tourist centers while still offering a wealth of experiences.
One of the town's most notable attractions is the Villa Torrigiani, a stunning example of 16th-century architecture with its magnificent gardens and ornate interiors. The villa is a testament to the grandeur of Italian nobility and provides a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the past.
