Subjects : The small and characteristic village stands on a modest hill that can be reached through the suggestive Viale dei Cipressi, a road almost five kilometers long that begins in the valley, on the Via Aurelia, right in front of the eighteenth-century Oratory of San Guido. The village developed around the medieval castle and has an entrance to the village with a tower gate. In the village there are three churches, Church of San Sebastiano and Church of Sant'Antonio outside the walls, along the avenue of San Guido in Bolgheri, the Church of Saints Giacomo and Cristoforo inside the walls. Walking through the narrow streets of the village you can admire old buildings that today serve as a restaurant or shop.

Recommended equipment : A wide-angle lens is mandatory in the small village, as the telephoto lens is useful in the avenue of cypresses and at will for details in the village, the handyman and fixed for those who travel well equipped.

Best months : All year round it always offers photographic ideas to appreciate.

How to get there : Bolgheri is just a 10-minute drive from the La California exit of the SS1 Aurelia highway, so whatever your origin, getting there is always relatively easy and convenient.

Visits : The Castle of Bolgheri is a private home and cannot be visited daily but is accessible only once a year, on July 16, on the occasion of the patron saint's feast. Visiting the Bolgheri Wildlife Refuge is only possible during the winter season, from October to April, and only by reservation.

Notes : Bolgheri is renowned all over the world for the wines that are produced in its territory and in the immediate surroundings, the most famous are above all Sassicaia, Vermentino and Bolgheri Sauvignon.It is impossible not to be fascinated by the Viale dei Cipressi, the access road to the village of Bolgheri: composed of about 2400 centuries-old cypresses and almost 5 kilometers long, it cuts the Maremma countryside in two starting from the oratory of San Guido and ending right in Bolgheri.
