Cortona, a charming hilltop town in Tuscany, Italy, is a must-visit destination for its rich history, artistic treasures, and breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. The standout attraction is the stunning Cortona Cathedral, a beautiful example of Renaissance architecture adorned with intricate frescoes and ornate stone carvings. Travelers also adore the picturesque streets of the old town, lined with quaint shops, charming cafes, and historic buildings that seem to hold secrets of the past. The best time to visit Cortona is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October), when the weather is mild and the crowds are smaller. For first-timers, we recommend exploring the old town on foot to get a feel for its narrow streets and hidden gems, starting from the central Piazza Repubblica and working your way up to the highest point, from where the views of the Valdichiana valley are simply breathtaking.
