Finally we arrived at Cortona. Cortona is located on a high hillside of the Tuscan Region 50 miles from Florence between Arezzo and Perugia. The town is about 3000 years old, established before the Roman Empire. Before the city lies a vast and beautiful plain, on either side, hills and valleys surround the city; while behind it lie towering yet fruitful mountains. Also Cortona became famous with the book "Under the Tuscan Sun" by Francis Mayes. You may be able to see the town from Roberto Benigni's film "Life is Beautiful".
