2 recommended sightseeing spots in Val d'Orcia

#Traveling Abroad ⛪️ Vitaleta Chapel A tiny little chapel standing alone on a hill. This is also famous as a Tuscan view. The building is constructed differently from the front and back, so it looks great from either side. When I visited in early May, the back side was beautiful with yellow flowers in bloom. And what was surprising was that it was this bright at 7:30pm. The sun sets in Tuscany in May around 8:30pm. This is the view even at 7:30pm. It was just dusk, and the grassland was shining gold, making it very beautiful. This chapel is very popular. The parking lot was full even at 7:30pm, but there were not many people? 📍Free parking 3JCR+5R parcheggio x vitaleta, 53026 Pienza SI, Italy 📍Chapel Chapel Vitaleta, 53027 San Quirico d'Orcia SI, Italy 📍San Galgano Monastery It is a roofless monastery in ruins. The weather was good on the day I visited, and the beautiful blue sky could be seen from the monastery, which was also like a work of art. There are some mirror objects inside the monastery. The beautiful Gothic architecture is attractive, and weddings are sometimes held here. 📍San Galgano Monastery Strada Comunale di S. Galgano, 53012 Chiusdino SI, Italy Hours: 9:00 to 18:45 Parking: Free parking available (wide and good) 📝The toilets inside the monastery were clean and comfortable. Admission fee: 5€ for adults. It's best to buy your ticket in advance from the official website. You can also buy it on-site.
