When visiting beautiful Tuscany in May, a highlight for us was the charming, centuries-old town of Pienza. Surrounded by the rolling hills, tall cypresses and rambling estates of the Val d'Orcia, with views that people typically associate with Tuscany, Pienza is a great place to spend a few hours. Best known for its delicious pecorino cheeses, purported to be the best in all of Italy, Pienza also has a lot of talented artisans, like this leatherworker who created high-quality leather goods. Pienza is definitely worth a stop on any trip through Tuscany, and bring a hearty appetite - its huge selection of rich cheeses and meats is delicious.
