ラヤーティコ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

ヴォルテッラのアルコ門は、エトルリア時代のヴォルテッラの主要な記念碑であり、イタリアで最も保存状態の良い古代の門の一つです。紀元前4世紀から3世紀に遡り、旧市街への南の入り口として機能し、元の防御壁の一部となっています。

Beautiful old town on top of a hill. Not too touristy compared to San Gimignano or Sienna center while bing equally as beautiful.

The Teatro del Silenzio is an open-air amphitheater created in 2006 thanks to Andrea Bocelli, originally from Lajatico, who convinced the municipality to create this evocative space immersed in the hilly landscape. The natural scenography is enriched by blocks of Tuscan travertine, while the stalls, dismantled during periods of inactivity, give way to an enchanting artificial lake. A unique place, where art and nature merge in a silence full of emotion.

Very worth seeing, you have to see it

Open-air theater in an impressive location. The view completes the experience.

The city of Volterra stands on a hill between the Era and Cecina valleys, surrounded by two historic city walls: one dating back to the Etruscan era and the other built in the thirteenth century. This city, known in Etruscan times as Veláthri, was one of the major city-states of ancient Etruria. During the Middle Ages, Volterra became the seat of an important episcopal lordship. Its fame is linked to the fine workmanship of alabaster, an art that constitutes one of the most significant contributions to Italian craftsmanship.

compulsory program! Definitely approach from the north. South and East are great runs!

The landmark of Volterra is the Porta all'Arco, the oldest preserved Etruscan city gate in Italy from the 4th century. v. It was once the main entrance from the south into the city, which was called Velathri in Etruscan times.
