Farmhouse in Castiglione d'Orcia
The Palazzo di Geta Agriturismo is located 32 miles south of Siena on the border of the villages of Castiglione d'Orcia and of Pienza, surrounded by the wide and enchanting landscape of the Val d'Orcia region.
The Val d'Orcia area became one of the Unesco World Heritage sites in March 2005. Here is the original justification reported in the Unesco web site:
Criterion (iv): The Val d'Orcia is an exceptional reflection of the way landscape was re-designed in Renaissance times to reflect the ideals of good governance and to create aesthetically pleasing pictures.
Criterion (vi): Painters from the Siennese School, which flourished during the Renaissance, celebrated landscape of the Val d'Orcia. Images of the Val d'Orcia, particularly depictions of landscapes in which people are shown living in harmony with nature, are now considered strongly representative of the Renaissance and have profoundly influenced the development of landscape thinking.
