Chianciano is one of the most renowned thermal resorts in Italy.
The first thermal baths were built in the 18th century by order of the Grand Duke of Tuscany. Actually, the Etruscan and the Roman already knew the therapeutic properties of the water that wells up in this town situated 500 metres above sea level between Val di Chiana and Val d`Orcia.
Situated in an enviable position, Chianciano Terme is easily reached both from northern and southern Italy (it is within about an hour`s drive on the A1 motorway from Florence and Rome, and it can also be reached by train, the nearest railway station being that of Chiusi-Chianciano).
If you have planned to spend your holidays in a
villa in Tuscany ,
possibly renting a
farmhouse in Siena ,
Chianciano Terme could be your ideal destination.
And forget the idea that a stay in a thermal resort is not suited for young people. In addition to the traditional baths of Acqua Santa, Fucoli, Sillene and Sant`Elena, in Chianciano Terme you will find the "Terme Sensoriali"
What are them? Image a walk on river cobbles surrounded by multicolour mosaics; some minutes surrounded by the aromas of lavender and rosemary in the Etruscan sauna, where the temperature is between 45°C and 50°C and humidity is close to 70%; basins with perfumed water at 36°C; chromotherapy; music therapy; refreshing mist and... many other charming and relaxing treatments.
Chianciano Terme is all this and much more!
