Because here, at "da Rita ed Eraldo", you can enjoy a good, traditional, simple snack with house wine, with a beautiful view of the landscape of the Orcia Valley. Tip: you have to have time, because Rita is not the fastest.

The small village of Buonconvento is located within the municipality of Siena and rises along the ancient Via Francigena. It has a small but fascinating historic centre, where the main church, the town hall and two museums are located.

Let yourself be fascinated by the typical red brick architecture and the different picturesque corners to take some great photos!
