The map below shows Pitigliano, Italy on a plateau surounded by ravines. Pitligliano is located in the Upper Maremma of Tuscany. Pitigliano is known as "Piccola Gerusalemme", or "Little Jerusalem" after the large Jewish population settling here in the middle of the 16th century. You can take an interesting trip underground and see the remains of the older Jewish quarter.

Eytan Kahn's Pitigliano: the Little Jerusalem
Pitigliano is a very interesting town in the lightly touristed Maremma region of southern Tuscany. The area is loaded with very interesting and unique Etruscan remains carved out of the soft tuff, sometimes called roads or paths. Make sure you visit the Jewish quarter of Pitigliano.
Bianco di Pitigliano is one of my favorite white wines of Tuscany. There's even a kosher version.
