Chasing Sunsets in Tuscany: A Romantic Journey
๐ There's something utterly magical about the iconic cypress-lined S-curve in Tuscany, especially when viewed from Agriturismo Baccoleno. The morning fog only adds to its ethereal beauty. Now, I'm not typically one to rise with the sun just for a view, especially when August days in Italy are sizzling hot. Instead, we indulged in a refreshing swim and a delightful afternoon tea at our hotel before hitting the road at 6:30 PM. The timing was perfect, as we arrived just in time to witness the breathtaking sunset. ๐ The drive was a visual feast, with rows of stately cypress trees and endless fields of sunflowers and vineyards stretching as far as the eye could see. The journey seemed to fly by, and before we knew it, we were there. ๐ August in Tuscany offers a different palette compared to its vibrant spring and summer hues. The meadows turn a golden yellow, dotted with hay bales, signaling the onset of autumn. It's a landscape bathed in the golden glow of harvest time, revealing a new kind of beauty. While many adore Tuscany's bright, sunlit days, I find myself enchanted by its twilight. There's a softness and a riot of colors that feels both romantic and soothing. #Italy #Tuscany #Travel #TravelDiary #MustSeeViews
