Curving Street, Arezzo, Italy

We stopped in Arezzo for two nights, during our 2023 visit to Italy (and other places). We decided to stay in some smaller towns for a few days between visits to Florence and Siena. The idea was to see a bit of Italy that is less intensely devoted to tourism, and to have somef down time between the big cities. (Since we were on the road for ten weeks, that down time was welcomed!)

We understand that Arezzo is not on most people’s Italian tour map, but we enjoyed our visit. During walks in the city we visited a lovely park at the upper end of the town near their cathedral, from which we could view the beautiful surrounding countryside. We wandered the town’s narrow and curving streets, enjoying its slower pace and relative lack of crowds.
