Chianciano Terme: a town with thermal baths is a municipality in the province of Siena, Tuscany, Italy. In the 5th century BC the Etruscans built a temple dedicated to the god of Good Health close to the Sillene springs where the town stands today. During Roman times luxurious Roman villas were built near the thermal baths. Today, the town is considered among the finest health resorts in Italy especially with its therapeutic water that is reputed to cleanse the liver via an increase in the production and excretion of liver bile. Among the more notable spas are Acqua Santa, Acqua Fucoli, Acqua Sillene, Acqua Santissima (which also advertises itself as a spa for those with respiratory problems), and Acqua Sant'Elena (which advertises that the calcic-alkaline bicarbonate in its water can treat kidney and urinary tract problems).

AREZZO (Tuscany-Italy) - TOUR DELLA CITTA' -
Arezzo (Arretium in latino, Aritim in etrusco) è un comune italiano di 99 587 abitanti, capoluogo dell'omonima provincia in Toscana. Conosciuta nel mondo come Città dell'oro e della Giostra del Saracino.La città di Arezzo è situata alla confluenza di tre delle quattro vallate che compongono la sua provincia. Direttamente a Nord della città ha inizio il Casentino, che è la valle percorsa dal primo tratto dell'Arno; a Nord-Ovest si trova il Valdarno Superiore, sempre percorso dall'Arno nel tratto che scorre fra Arezzo e Firenze; a Sud si trova la Val di Chiana, una pianura ricavata dalla bonifica di preesistenti paludi, il cui più importante corso d'acqua è il Canale Maestro della Chiana. Tramite l'agevole valico del Torrino e la valle del Cerfone, si ha accesso a Nord-Est alla quarta vallata, la Valtiberina, percorsa dal primo tratto del Tevere.Il territorio del comune è molto ampio e vario: si passa dalla pianura che si apre sulla Val di Chiana e sull'Arno, alle colline, a Sud della città, a zone montuose, soprattutto ad Est. Come conseguenza della grande estensione del territorio comunale i comuni che vi confinano sono numerosi: sul lato della Val di Chiana ci sono Civitella in Val di Chiana, Castiglion Fiorentino, Cortona, Monte San Savino e Marciano della Chiana; sul lato del Valdarno superiore ancora Civitella in Val di Chiana, Laterina e Castiglion Fibocchi; sul lato del Casentino Capolona e Subbiano; sul lato della Valtiberina Anghiari, Monterchi e i due comuni umbri di Città di Castello e Monte Santa Maria Tiberina (toscano fino al 1927).-Get Lost ( extended instrumental ) - JD Dohnal-Ho creato questo video con l'Editor video di YouTube (

CORTONA, ITALY - travel shorts
Cortona, Italy is one of the most famous the Tuscan hill towns although it's important to realise that Cortona is more of a Tuscany hillside town than hilltop town and consequently has a great many steep streets and lanes and only one horizontal one - by no means unique in this part of Italy. Nevertheless, for anyone visiting central Italy, the sights of Cortona are definitely worth a day at the very least, preferably two days. The Cortona Museums house world-class art, ranging from Etruscan and Egyptian in the Cortona Etruscan Museum, through early Renaissance in the Cortona Diocesan Museum. Cortona is well-endowed with a variety of Renaissance architecture even though the prevalent character of the townscape is mediaeval. The main piazza of Cortona, Italy, Piazza della Repubblica, has a wonderful ambience and forms the focal centre of Cortona. The highest point on the hill of Cortona is dominated by a huge Medicean fort from which the visitor can admire not only the town but the entire Val di Chiana.
Cortona has an active calendar of performing arts events, and hosts a famous annual antiques exhibition, the Cortonantiquaria, as well as a monthly antiques and bric-a-brac market. There is also a not-to-be-missed folkloric crossbow competition, the Giostra dell'Archidado on the last last day of Cortona Mediaeval Week in late May or early June.
Cortona is easily accessed by rail from Rome and Florence but the nearest station is Camucia-Cortona, three km away, requiring a bus or taxi ride to reach the centre of Cortona. Walking uphill to Cortona proper is for the fit only but one is rewarded by access to a number of Etruscan tombs along the route.
Tuscany - Chianti - Montalcino - Montepulciano
Tuscany is a region in Central Italy. It has an area of about 23,000 square kilometres (8,900 sq mi) and a population of about 3.7 million inhabitants. The regional capital is Florence.
Tuscany is known for its beautiful landscapes, its rich artistic legacy and vast influence on high culture. Tuscany is widely regarded as the true birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, and has been home to some of the most influential people in the history of arts and science, such as Petrarch, Dante, Botticelli, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo Galilei, Amerigo Vespucci, Luca Pacioli and Puccini. Due to this, the region has several museums (such as the Uffizi, the Pitti Palace and the Chianciano Museum of Art). Tuscany has a unique culinary tradition, and is famous for its wines (most famous of which are Chianti, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Morellino di Scansano and Brunello di Montalcino).
Six Tuscan localities have been designated World Heritage Sites: the historic centre of Florence (1982), the historical centre of Siena (1995), the square of the Cathedral of Pisa (1987), the historical centre of San Gimignano (1990), the historical centre of Pienza (1996) and the Val d'Orcia (2004). Furthermore, Tuscany has over 120 protected nature reserves. This makes Tuscany and its capital city Florence very popular tourist destinations, attracting millions of tourists every year. Florence itself receives an average of 10 million tourists a year by placing the city as one of the most visited in the world (in 2007, the city became the world's 46th most visited city, with over 1.715 million arrivals).
