I've often found that even inside the most touristed cities, like Florence for example, little discoveries can be made if one looks for them beyond the pages of the travel guide book.

I'd love to play the frog catching game... I was looking up where it's located and what else I might see in the area and came up with this other place owned by the same family, the Belagio castle.

It dates back to Charlemagne and is a working Abby serving the community of Castelnuovo del Abbate. Breathtaking from the outside and inside it sits in the open valley below the town. In addition, they teach and perform Gregorian Chant there. Not to be overlooked is the abazzia di Sant’ Antimo just south of Montalcino.
