“Leonardo
da Vinci” in Rome Fiumicino and “A.Vespucci”
in Firenze Peretola. Once there, you can easily take a train or
rent a car. With a shuttle train from the airports you get directly
to the train station in Rome and Firenze, and then just follow
the next directions. If you want to rent a car, once out of the
airports, follow the directions for the A1 Firenze-Roma motorway,
then follow the next directions.
By
train:
From
your departing station, take the first train to Arezzo and then
the first local train to Cortona-Camucia station.
By
car:
To
reach Cortona driving on the Autostrada del Sole highway (A1)
(both northbound and southbound), exit at the Valdichiana toll-gate
and get on the Siena-Perugia speedway, direction Perugia. Get
off the speedway at the Cortona-San Lorenzo exit. At the stop
sign take a right turn and keep driving direction Cortona, drive
past Camucia and follow signs for Cortona. Climbing up the hill,
go along after driving past the Cortona town-limit sign, keep
driving about 500 m and arrive in P.zza Mazzini, turn right into
the Colonia gate, and after 200 m. (via Dardano n°6) on the
left you find Le Gelosie.
CORTONA:
Le
Gelosie is located just inside the city walls, in the historical
town centre, and more exactly at the corner between Via Dardano
and Piazza Signorelli. In the Piazza Signorelli stands the wonderful
namesake theatre (Signorelli), with its arcade where, in Spring
and Summer time, breakfast will be served.
Very interesting is the near Piazza della Repubblica, where the
beautiful medieval Palazzo Comunale stands tall. This is a place
usually used by artists (Andre Rieu) and set designers (the film
Under the Tuscan sun) as the setting for their concerts or artistic
and cultural performances. The best restaurants and wine shops
are within a stone’s throw.
