A Tuscany must: San Gimignano and its Towers

Jan. 31, 2011 - PRLog -- San Gimignano is probably the most fascinating medieval symbol of Tuscany. Its wonderful medieval towers are an irresistible lure and you can only follow the road, leave the car out from the village and go in. Discovering this village of Etruscan origin that stands on one of the pillars of the famous Francigena road. Crossing the San Francesco bastion and over Porta San Giovanni, gentle ups and downs bring you to the triangular Cisterna square, ancient home of markets and festival.
From here you can enjoy a view over a wide part of the village. The tower of Palazzo Pellaro, Palazzo Tortoli, the twin towers of Ardinghelli and a few ancient San Gimignano villas. In the small lanes all around you can visit shops of ceramics, food and wine, antiques and souvenir as well as a real estate agency where you can find a few great opportunities of villa rentals in Tuscany. All housed in in old buildings where you can still notice fascinating features of medieval age that make of these stores fascinating places where shopping.
San Gimignano is also renowned for being located in the very heart of the Chianti area. All around are stunning landscapes, famous wine estates and farmhouses with olive groves and sunflower fields. Its a surprising place where time slows down, where dramatic sunsets remain in your memories and the scents of nature make a fantastic single whole with the flavours of Chianti wines, maybe tasted close to the swimming pool of your luxury villa in Tuscany. An unforgettable experience if you have the chance to rent one of the very few holiday villas in Tuscany.
Renting a holiday villa in Tuscany means to live one of the most romantic experience you can live in your life. There is a rmagical atmosphere, especially if you had the opportunity to book one of the luxury villas to rent in Tuscany near places like San Gimignano.
