Hello, dearest friends,
Today, with this post, I should be concluding that part of the Tuscan villages I’ve had the chance to visit in the past few weeks. Besides, I’m not sure when I’ll post again because tomorrow and Saturday I’ll be super busy. But today, in particular, I wanted to share with you this small village that is located 45 km from Pisa and is situated in the southern part of the Valdera, at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level. This strategic position always offers the opportunity to see beautiful views of the surrounding hills.
I’m talking about Rivalto, which I visited right after a few hours of rain, and I have to say, this rain created an even more beautiful and evocative atmosphere.
As you can see from the photos, Rivalto is very unique with its exposed brick houses, which, as I’ve explained in other posts, are very typical of the Tuscan countryside. Walking through the streets of this village was very interesting because I was able to notice every interesting detail and, unfortunately, some parts of the village that were abandoned.
Surely, what strikes you the most is the stunning landscape you can experience firsthand when you visit this place. What I cannot convey through my photos is the sense of peace and tranquility you feel when you’re here.
Moreover, there were also some small market stalls in the square, as some people were directly selling typical local products from the area, which I found very nice.
Also, if I had visited this place a few weeks later, I would have had the chance to participate in the Chestnut Festival, a much-loved and well-attended event in these areas, as chestnuts have always represented something important here and have undoubtedly helped ease hunger in these regions.
What I always love about these places is that every corner of the village is always scenically interesting. It could be an old chair sitting there or simply some plants and flowers that create a lovely atmosphere.
Anyway, if you happen to be near Pisa and want to reach this place, I recommend taking the SS 439, and the trip will take about 40 minutes from Pisa. To reach this place by bus, you’ll need to take a bus from Pisa to Pontedera, and one of the intermediate stops passes quite close by.
I hope the photos I’ve shared with you were interesting. It’s always a pleasure for me to introduce you to these places, and I hope to show you more in the future. I’ll see you in my next post! Have a great day, everyone!
