The Horti Leonini are a magnificent example of a classic Italian garden, laid out around 1580 by Diomede Leoni, after whom it is named. Leoni was a connoisseur of ancient and Renaissance art who, on behalf of the Medici, acquired works of art from Roman circles. Francesco I de' Medici himself gifted him a plot of land in the heart of San Quirico d'Orcia, where the Horti, which still retain their original appearance, would later be established. The gardens are divided into two sections: The lower, diamond-shaped area is enclosed by walls and clipped holm oaks and consists of triangular flowerbeds bordered by a double boxwood hedge. At its center is a sculpture attributed to the Sienese artist Bartolomeo Mazzuoli, depicting Cosimo III de' Medici (1688). In the other section stands the head of Janus Bifrons, a Roman-era sculpture that symbolically marks the boundary between the more natural and the formally designed parts of the garden. A travertine staircase leads to the upper plaza.

The Horti Leonini are a public garden located in the ancient bastions of San Quirico d'Orcia (province of Siena). The Horti have maintained their original structure to this day, constituting a well-preserved example of a classic 16th-century Italian garden and a model of park arrangement revived in subsequent centuries. taken from: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horti_Leonini ═════════════════ 👇 here is the video in 4K 👇 https://youtu.be/MUBZ51VCcuE

Bagno Vignoni is a small medieval village built more than a thousand years ago, in the heart of the Val d'Orcia. Peculiar to this village is the main square, consisting of a thermal pool (where it is not possible to swim) which makes the landscape truly unique. Below the hill on which the village stands there are two other pools with thermal water. The water flows from above the city to the ponds, overflows and flows into the river.

Bagno Vignoni is a small medieval village built a thousand years ago amidst rolling hills and winding roads. There is a swimming pool in the main square, and below the hill there are two pools with thermal waters. Water flows from above the town down to the ponds, overflows through them and flows into the river.

Between the town and the freely accessible part of the thermal baths is the Parco de Mulino, an excavation site of three mills that were probably operated here on the water.
