Locals and tourists gather in Cortona's Piazza Signorelli to enjoy the Tuscan sun, Chianti, and espresso.  Cortona, one of the 12 Etruscan capitals sits high atop a hill with breathtaking views of the Val di Chiana far below. From the piazza take any of the narrow cobbled streets that wind their way upward precipitously. You might find yourself at the Porta Montagnina in the ancient Etruscan wall, or gazing at the tiny Church of San Cristoforo.
