The bench, located in a very panoramic place, can be reached from a dirt road uphill that starts near the tabernacle which is located right on the border between the provinces of Prato and Florence along the provincial road that goes down from the Pinone pass to Vinci.

The giant bench is worth a visit because from up there you can enjoy a beautiful view of the valley of the Empoli area and Vinci.
The giant benches are requested by structures that are located nearby (farm holidays, places of refreshment, etc.) and that must be installed in places of landscape interest and financed exclusively with donations without the use of public funds. This initiative was promoted years ago, and is still supported by the designer Chris Bangle, who was "chief designer" of BMW / Rolls Royce between the 90s and 2000s. The request to install a giant bench is examined by the Big benches community and approval is eventually given, if the requirements to grant it exist.
