Charming little town. Great local restaurants! The cobble stone walkways, arches, entrances -- you just feel the history walking into the city.
Monticchiello is a beautiful small walled village on a hill-top between Montipulciano and Pienza. We were told the population consisted of about 90 persons. There are several restaurants and overnight possibilities as well as an art gallery and a nice dress shop. The views both inside and outside the walls are superb. It is definitely worth a visit.
This is the quaintest, most sedate and peaceful hill top village on earth. Perched up on high is a collection of iggldy piggly terracotta tiled houses all immaculately kept with great pride from the owners.wonderful flower arrangements adorn the houses, the views are breathtaking.If you want a place to chill and see your last days out this will do fine.There are restaurants but no sign of a shop at all !! Worth a visit and marvel.If nothing else get to see Monticchiello once in your life.
Wonderful little hilltop town, with great restaurants. Lovely to spend an afternoon or evening. It's a place to get away from it all as it's very quiet town. But has a great bar and restaurant.
It's just an amazing village, like jumping back in time of some hundred years. I had the feeling it is not so touristic as Pienza (there were only few people, very quite and nice). But it's as beautiful as Pienza, and with an excellent restaurant (Osteria La Porta). Simply lovely.
Not too much to see here. A typical small hill town, but still interesting. But the main reason we came was to eat lunch and La Porta was excellent.
and dont miss to take a picture of the zypressi serpentines you find this in every calendar from Tuscany
just a perfect old town on a hill. Nice drive up. there is even a pull over spot for photos just before the town. Found reasonable close parking for a fee
This is a very nice little town but packed with really good food. It's a good place to explore and enjoy the scenic view.
Beautiful little town with a great restaurant - La Porta. Only took an hour to see the whole town, but it was worth it. In the most picturesque part of all Tuscany, in our opinion.
