Enjoy the idyllic scenery and leisurely pace in the small Italian town of Volterra
#I miss the rural scenery of Volterra, a small town in Tuscany, Italy
In the small mountain town of Volterra, 🥳enjoy the rural scenery and leisurely pace, and relax! Looking out from the arched porch of the ancient building, it is a very healing rural scenery.
The small town of Volterra is almost completely surrounded by the 13th-century city wall. Walking to the edge of the city wall is a good place to see the scenery. The green rural scenery around is very healing.
Every corner of the town is full of medieval style. And on the 2nd and 3rd Sunday of August every year, a large medieval festival and special market called "Volterra AD 1398" will be held. 🥳Locals dressed in medieval costumes will shuttle through the town.
And I like to linger in a small town with not many people and wander around aimlessly. Although the town is not big, there are many special shops. There is a shop called Ali Alabastri Lavorati Italiani in front of the bus station, where you can find many special crafts and souvenirs.

🏛️ Stone, Wind, and Memory – Volterra, Italy
#mediterraneanvibes
📍 Volterra, Province of Pisa, Tuscany Region, Central Italy — set high in the hills between Florence and the Tuscan coast
Volterra is a city carved from ancient stone, where Etruscan walls and Roman ruins whisper stories to the wind. Perched on a ridge above the Tuscan valleys, it feels older than time, yet alive with quiet elegance. Unlike its crowded neighbors, Volterra moves slowly — each step echoing through cobbled lanes and shadowed archways.
The Piazza dei Priori anchors the historic center with medieval pride, while alabaster workshops offer a softer kind of art — translucent, luminous, and shaped by hand. Outside the walls, the vast Balze cliffs drop dramatically into silence, reminding visitors of nature’s power and the town’s fragile strength.
Volterra isn’t polished — it’s real, textured, and soulfully aged. A place to listen more than to speak.
🧭 Tips for Visitors:
• Visit in the morning or late afternoon for soft light and emptier streets
• Perfect for history lovers, slow wanderers, and Etruscan-era enthusiasts
• Wear sturdy shoes — the streets are uneven and hilly
• Try local wild boar dishes, pecorino cheese, and handmade pici pasta
• Combine with San Gimignano or take the scenic route through Val di Cecina
