There is something undeniably alluring about seeing a side of Tuscany that\u2019s not in one of your travel agent\u2019s well-thumbed holiday brochures. Maybe it\u2019s the nostalgic dream we all have of finding that tiny provincial Italian town where the locals still sit in their gardens and watch the world pass by. Or maybe we just want to gloat authoritatively to friends back home about that \u2018hidden oasis\u2019 we found and how there wasn\u2019t a tourist menu or souvenir shop in sight.<\/p>\n

Whatever it is, the Tuscan Maremma<\/strong> <\/a>ticks all the boxes when it comes to idyllic undiscovered destinations. The area presses its back to the borders of Southern Tuscany and Lazio so intently that you often wonder what region it wants to be in. The locals are sometimes called the sentinels of Tuscany, not by geographical definitions, but by something all together more innate. La cultura contadina <\/em>or farmers’ culture is fastidiously preserved in the Maremma so that centuries\u2019 old Tuscan traditions are not forgotten and the stories of the famous butteri <\/em>(Tuscan cowboys) and briganti <\/em>(brigands) are told to eager children again and again.<\/p>\n

You could spend years exploring the Tuscan Maremma and only see a fraction of what this incredible area has to offer. So to start you off, here are three Southern Maremman towns where the dishes are all the sweeter because they were made to old family recipes and the locals still don\u2019t quite understand what all the fuss over their homes is really about.<\/p>\n

Montemerano<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In Montemerano\u2019s Piazza del Castello, medieval homes are almost entirely covered by the vines that have wound their way from old wine barrels up to burnt terracotta roofs. Every day, the same woman who has been watering all of Montemerano\u2019s flowers for a decade carefully carries her red jug from pot to pot, stopping to chat to the Montemeranesi in the old town. These locals have lived in the same homes for generations. They\u2019ve never had cause to leave. And why should they? Their homes were built by the Sienese knights of the 16th century. They\u2019re sturdy and undeniably beautiful, made from butterscotch coloured stones that immediately remind tourists of scenes from Under the Tuscan Sun. <\/em><\/p>\n

Montemerano doesn\u2019t have a list of attractions you can visit and tick off with the satisfied sense that you have seen everything this town has to offer. In Montemerano, the real experience is in strolling through the streets and hidden piazzas, trying one of the small family run restaurants and sparing a special moment or two to admire the utterly understated, but completely beloved Chiesa di San Giorgio<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t miss: <\/strong>Montemerano\u2019s annual festival of dragons and medieval magic, the Festa di San Giorgio, in April.<\/p>\n

Sovana<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sovana has always been called the Regno della Maremma <\/em>or Kingdom of the Maremma for it has seen Etruscan royalty, artist and poet kings and religious idols<\/strong> come and go in the millennia since its founding. Though it\u2019s easy to see who has left the most lasting memory. On one end of town, a crumbling 12th<\/sup> century fortress is all that is left of the Aldobrandeschi kings, while on the other, the magnificent Il Duomo di Santi Pietro and Paolo stands as one of Europe\u2019s most beautiful and last remaining Romanesque cathedrals.<\/p>\n

In between the two monuments, Sovana unfolds as a town untouched by the centuries. Dotted between the houses are the small artisan workshops that make bespoke silk pieces and beautiful ceramics. The Sovanesi are natural artists. It\u2019s in their blood. The Etruscans who set roots in Sovana, Suana as it was called then, were famous for their striking ceramics. The modern Sovanesi have kept the colours of their ancestors, the vibrant blues, reds and yellows, alive in their art today.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t miss: <\/strong>The Etruscan necropolis in the Parco Archeologico del Tufo just outside of Sovana where these Etruscan hues can still be see on the magnificent statues and tombs.<\/p>\n

Capalbio<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"\"

Behind their walled fortress, the Capalbiesi live a seaside sort of life. From the first warm day in early spring to the first drop of autumn rain, they spend their siestas outdoors, reclining on the benches of the parapet wall, sticking their heads into the small bars for a coffee or a vin santo to while away the afternoon.<\/p>\n

Capalbio is the last Southern Maremma town. Just beyond the wall, Burano Lake, sometimes called Walt Disney\u2019s Lake for its enchanting flora and fauna, marks the start of a nature park that encompasses as far as the eye can see. But it\u2019s what you don\u2019t see that draws the tourists to Capalbio. Hidden behind the thick Mediterranean brush just outside of the city are some of Tuscany\u2019s most incredible beaches<\/strong><\/a>. You won\u2019t be able to resist making a beeline for Chiarone Beach, where the soft sand has been attracting political VIPs for decades.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t miss: <\/strong>Capalbio is also home to the eccentrically fantastical Giardino dei Tarrochi, a garden filled with giant, handmade mosaic statues fashioned by French-English artist Niki de Saint Phalle.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
