If You Ever Have The Chance To Visit Marrema, Then Do Your Self A Favor And Do Anything That Passes Through Your Hand In Order To Visit Pitigliano. It's A Wonderful Small City, Surrounded By Astonishing Nature And Overshadowed By A Long History.Pitigliano Is Located 313 Meters Above The Sea Level; Built Over Steep, Tuff Rock, A Type Of Volcanic Magma. The City Itself Is Very Unique; In Fact, Its So Different From Its Surroundings That It Has Nothing To Do With The Classic Tuscan Farm Houses And Smooth Hills.The City Is Affected To Such A Level By The Tuff Rock It Is Built Over That It Appears As If Everything Evolves Around The Rocks Presence; As A Matter Of Fact, There Are Countless Human Made Cuts In The Tuff Rock. The Depth Of Those Cuts Varies Form Something Less Than One Meter To Over 10 Meters!Although You Will Actually Find Those Human Made Cuts In Reality To Be More Interesting Than What They Sound To Be (when You Have The Chance To See Them Of Course!), I Will Just Forget That And Give You Enough Reasons To Visit Pitigliano; Even If You Take Into Consideration Nothing Of What I Have Said So Far!Pitigliano Is Famous For Its History, The Majority Of The Sights Prove That; After All, Its Considered To Be A Historical Place. You Can Pay A Visit To The Orsini Fortress, A Very Interesting And Well Preserved Medieval Type Fortress. After That, You Might Visit The Cathedral Of SS. Pietro E Paolo Or The Church Of Santa Maria. If You Are Fascinated About Old Time Wars Then You Can Also Move Around The Town And Study The Great Protecting Walls And The Huge Gates; The Area Of The Town Where The Walls And The Gates Are Best Preserved Is Porta Sovana, Dont Miss That; You Will Be Impressed!Apart From All The Above, You Should Know That Pitigliano Carries An Important Jewish History. For Quite A Long Time, The City Embodied An Extraordinarily Large Jewish Community; Its Not Hard To Figure, As A Side Effect, The Whole Town And The Culture Were Heavily Influenced.If You Are A Fan Of History, You Shouldnt Miss This Place; Not Only It Is Unique And Distinct But It Also Preserves A Very Personal Style Through The Years.
