 The Crete senesi area: "A dip in nature"

"The Crete Senesi are a travel experience that should be done at least once in a lifetime: roads that wind up sinuously like asphalt snakes on soft natural undulations, farmhouses against the backdrop of yellow expanses of wheat, countryside dotted with sharp cypresses, while at sunset the daylight fades into the purple and honey of the horizon."

The Thermal Spas: water is life. 

A blue thread crosses Rapolano Terme from the source of the first aqueduct to the precious thermal waters: venerated since Etruscan times, since the nineteenth century they have been a primary economic resource but also an opportunity for exchange and encounter of cultures.

The Museum: the Grancia and the Olive Oil.

A journey back to the Middle Ages for learning about the “Grancia”, an ancient fortified farm owned by the Hospital of Santa Maria della Scala, passing through the charming rooms of the Oil Museum, an old oil mill describing the secrets of this excellence of the territory.
