The face of this region is characterized by gentle hills. A paradise of silence stretches along the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea in wild, mostly untouched nature. Initially, the road follows the gently rolling hills through tiny villages, cypresses, old natural stone houses as well as the remote country houses on top of the hills. Juniper and myrtle forests pass by.
Already in spring, red poppy carpets cover the still green valleys and hills, later, when the summer spreads its heat over the country, the fields shine in the bright yellow of the sunflowers sprouting everywhere. Late autumn bathes the landscape in the dark red of the leaves and grapes. The harvest season appears as a long festival.
Chianni lies in the middle of the pleasant, lonely hilly landscape. Here you will find peace, relaxation and security. In the tranquil place itself there are all shops for daily needs: baker, butcher, newsagents, bank, post office, hotel, two restaurants, two bars, hairdresser, doctor, pharmacy, shops for daily needs etc.
Chianni is the ideal starting point to explore the most interesting places and landscapes in Tuscany. Visit the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, the towers in San Gimignano, the Field of Miracles in Pisa, Piazza del Campo in Siena, explore the city walls of Lucca and the Ombra della Sera in Volterra - or visit the wide, white beaches of the Tyrrhenian Sea at Vada, Castiglioncello or Tirrenia.
"Tuscany is not in Italy, but Italy in Tuscany", Goethe noted in 1776 during his famous trip to Italy.
The apartment in the center of Chianni is wildly romantic in the middle of the Tuscan hills, rural and quiet, with a view of the medieval town of Chianni.
Paradise starts here.
The best way to move around in medieval Chianni is on foot; there are few parking spaces. There is a public, free parking lot directly below the house. There are bus connections from Chianni to Pontedera and to Rosignano Marrittimo. In Pontedera there is a train connection to Pisa & Florence.
