Dominating the Val di Chiana, Cortona stands on an olive-clad hill at about 600 metres above sea level. Its origins are lost in the nights of time, said to pre-date both Rome and Troy. Extensive traces of its Etruscan past emerge to document its role as one of the twelve cities of the Etruscan Confederation.

Recommended restaurants
La Loggetta - Address: Piazza Pescheria 3
Above Cortona's main medieval square, this attractive restaurant is housed in a 16th-century wine cellar. In good weather you can eat outdoors, overlooking the 13th-century town hall and dining on regional dishes and specilaties.

Tonino - Address: Piazza Garibaldi
It must be host Tonino's antipastissimo (an incredible variety of delectables). You can enjoy the view of the Chiana Valley and savour a Chianina steak quietly.
Recommended shops
Il Cocciaio - Address: Via Nazionale 54
For nice ceramics, with many pieces depicting the brilliant sunflowers that blanket local fields.
