Montopoli is set in the heart of Tuscany, between Pisa and Florence, in the Val D'Arno. There are many interesting places to visit: San Miniato, has a Diocesan Museum and is famous for the white truffle; the town of Vinci is the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci and hosts a wonderful museum in his honour; Montelupo Fiorentino hosts an important museum of Renaissance ceramics works; and Artimino, with a collection of wonderful Medici villas. This area has been continuously inhabited since the Etruscan times and almost all the villages in the surrounding hills are ancient and it is not a rare event to come across Etruscan finds and archaeological excavations. This colourful landscape of rolling hills dotted with medieval villages, castles and lanes flanked with tall dark green cypress trees, epitomises the Tuscan scenery. The area is scattered with historical towns and medieval villages, castles and country churches and a landscape with golden meadows of wheat dancing in the breeze, vineyards, olive groves and fields of sunflowers. In Lajatico, Andrea Bocelli, the famous tenor, was born and it is in the heart of Valdera that he created the famous Teatro del Silenzio (the Theatre of Silence), where the natural landscape creates a breathtaking setting. In the summer months some of the biggest international musicians and names in opera gather for a special performance. Casciana Terme has thermal waters and spa facilities and is a pretty town with piazzas and cafès serving the local wine. The città d’arte (cities of art) close by, full or art treasures and breathtaking architecture include Volterra, San Gimignano, Siena and Florence.
