Itinerary
The Val d’Orcia Park of Art, Nature and Culture is listed amongst UNESCO sites as a cultural landscape. This recognition was awarded in 2004 by the World Heritage Committee for the excellent conservation of the landscape – thanks to intelligent intervention by man – and for the inspiration it gave to Renaissance artists.
