Beautiful and historic: Strada in Chianti

Strada in Chianti is located in the lush, Chianti wine-growing district in the province of Florence, Italy.

In addition to motoring about the beautiful hills and fields, visitors have many opportunities to enjoy regional wines.

Within the town is the ancient Romanesque church of St. Christopher, which was consecrated in 1083 and is decorated with fifteenth-century frescoes.

Every September, visitors arrive in the district to enjoy the annual Road Fair. It opens on the third Sunday of the month with a series of volleyball and football tournaments.

The parade takes place the following Sunday alongside a market with stalls selling regional foods.

At this time, accommodation is likely to be more expensive. However, the moderate climate makes vacationing in the district a pleasure at any time of year.

The highest summer temperature is 30 degrees while throughout the winter months it hovers between 1 and 10 degrees.

Overall, Strada in Chianti is a mixture of history and beauty.
