“As soon as we leave Siena and the ring roads, we encounter a unique spectacle that we instantly fall in love with: gentle hills interrupted by erosive phenomena such as the biancane, hills on which there are marvellous farmhouses most often bordered by cypress trees that give life to wide and evocative views.”
