The town
Chianciano Terme is a city in Tuscany known for its therapeutic springs that have been healing Romans since ancient times.
The meeting point between Umbria and Tuscany, the territory of Chianciano Terme (province of Siena), is located in an ideal contact line with various sources of excellences: the landscape of the Val d'Orcia - not by chance recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site - the wine hills of Montepulciano, the Renaissance treasures of Pienza. To finalize this list we find Chianciano, the most famous spa town in Italy. The Etruscans and the Romans were already well known for their appreciation and understanding of the beneficial properties found in the mineral waters of this town.
