Why do tourists go to San Gimignano? It’s an inspiring medieval town. All those towers get photographed, water colored and sketched by artists and wanderers. Yes, there’s good gelato to be found in San Gimignano.

But there’s no need to travel to a town without a railway station just for gelato. You come for those towers. You want to see the Manhattan of Italy. But, dear traveler, there’s also the landscape around the town. It’s nice as well.
