THE TOWNS OF TUFO<\/b><\/p>\n
Pitigliano, Sorano and Sovana are considered the “villages of tuff”, and they are part of a very extensive area called Archaeological Park of Tuff characterized by the Cave Ways, ie real canyons trapped between suggestive and steep tuff walls.<\/p>\n
The tufa rock is the element that characterizes the whole area, which stands out for the striking spurs of tuff that give the villages an ancient dress of rare beauty.<\/p>\n
SORANO:<\/b><\/p>\n
After only 9 km from Pitigliano you will arrive in Sorano, literally carved into the rock, ancient towers, alleys and streets, niches and cellars to explore.<\/p>\n
The thing that you will be left with of Sorano is the panorama of the city from the Leopoldino Masso. A fortified terrace “carved in the living rock” built by the Grand Duke Leopold, who seems to emerge from the mountain.<\/p>\n
SOVANA:<\/b><\/p>\n
A small village that will stay in your heart. The charm of the old town is medieval.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s all concentrated in little space, demonstrating the importance of this city built on a stone of tuff. Few houses and only one street.<\/p>\n
PITIGLIANO:<\/b><\/p>\n
Pitigliano is nicknamed the Little Jerusalem, for the historical presence of a Jewish community, always well integrated in the social context. It is a jewel, an enchanted and fascinating place that seems to emerge from the tuff rock on which it rests.<\/p>\n
The ochre-coloured buildings look like one with the rock.<\/p>\n<\/div>
