R is for: River Underground Right This Way (Pistoia Underground Tour)

P is for Pienza and Beyond!
P is for pizza, and pasta, and parmesan, but it’s also for the lovely little villages of Pienza, Pistoia, and Petronagno. While I’ll have to save Pistoia and Petrognagno until the next update, let’s set off now from Bagni San… Continue reading
