Tuscany Guide on Siena, Chianti, Cortona and the Coast of Tuscany...

Tuscany is truly a blessed land. Created by the genius of man and nature, Tuscany was first civilized by the Etruscans around the 8th century.

Tuscany is a fantastic country of majestic mountains, placid lakes, idyllic islands, splendid cities and wonderful walled villages. An ideal climate plus warm and gracious people make Tuscany one of the wonders of Italy. Not to mention the wine, cuisine, cypress trees, snaking sandy roads leading to rust-colored farmhouses and moss-coated castles as well as sculptured symmetrical hilltops.
