Along a path, we unknowingly walked to VIA santa caterina, a non-vehicle road outside Pienza looked up, shocked! Amazed! Dream-like Tuscany, right in front of you! In the early medieval period, the Orcha Valley was a must-have road between the towns of Florence and Siena and Rome. The Pope baptized, sacrificed, preached in Rome, and in a sense was the conductor of the whole of Italy, headed by the Pope. At that time, “church power” was higher than “imperial power,” and the towns of Florence, Lucca, and Siena were divided, even in war. In the valley, there are many hospitals, farmhouses, and stations. For centuries, it has maintained the original Tuscan landscape, the starry towns and the cottages scattered among them, forming a region with comprehensive characteristics of history, art, architecture and environment.

    Orcia is located in Siena province in Tuscany, central Italy. Since the Middle Ages, Orcia has been a must-have for pilgrims to Rome, with countless hostels, hotels, hospitals and inn stations in the valley. For centuries, it has hosted a large number of pilgrims and tourists, facilitating their travel.

    Pinza is a mini-town, the only main street is only twenty minutes from start to finish, and the size of the church and palace is almost negligible in Italy, so where is the pastoral scenery in the photo? Out of the gate on one side, the terrain slightly downward, and then a turn, the idyllic scenery of Tuscany under the mountain came to my face! Along the wide platform, overlooking the entire Orcha Valley, is exactly what I think of Tuscany! The sunset is gold-plated, and the mountains in the distance are covered in rose-colored sunsets. Occasionally, tourists or local residents walking their dogs share the quiet beauty with a smile.

    Large undulating slopes, farmland harvested on the slow slopes, rural farmhouses on the top of the slow slopes, rows of cypress trees in the countryside, and the famous "little ears" churches dotted with them, forming the picturesque scenery of the Orcha Valley today!

    Pienza is a small town built on the mountain, and one of the six world cultural heritages. In the various elements of Italy, it is not to mention ice cream. It is so happy to see these two little aunts eat cold! The Church of the Little Ears is in the Orcha Valley not far from Pienza. This is a small church that can't be smaller. Because it was a net red spot in the Tuscan sun, it planted a few pine trees next to the church. Because the pine trees pointed upward, some people felt like the ears of the elf. I think it looks like the ear cover worn by an old man in northern China in winter. Anyway, the nickname Church of the Little Ears is still in the same language, indicating its characteristics.
