A miniature village, hardly searchable on the Internet. It is located on a hill, and at the very top there is a small park with picturesque views. If you're looking for a place to drink a bottle of wine at sunset, this is one of the best places in all of Tuscany.

The park is located on the site of a historic 14th century fortress (Rocca Tolomei) and there is also a historic church (Chiesa di San Michele Arcangelo). The place is very quiet and cozy.
