Panzano in Chianti, within the beautiful Florentine countryside was historically a land in dispute by the cities of Siena and Florence due to its important location. The situation was the cause of numerous destructions and reconstructions so that today only the original medieval historic center remains incorporated into the bell tower of the church. On approach, the town's ancient characteristics are in evidence with part of the original walls surrounding the town. Moving inwards one meets modernity in Piazza Gastone Bucciarelli with its shops and restaurants. The rest of Panzano has the typical atmosphere of Tuscan towns, rich with sights and activity. The region produces world renowned goods such as cured meats, wine and other local specialities, all of which help to make life a pleasure. Villa ? City center: 4,3 km Panzano ?
