Palazzo del Borgo is situated in the suburb of Rivalto, a very quiet village in the province of Pisa, Municipality of Chianni.
Rivalto arises on the foundations of an ancient castle, and has maintained the fascinating aspect of a medieval village; on the top of a hill at 350 meters above sea level, it grants a nice climate.
The scenario is the Era Valley and the hills with their green yellow and dark brown fields, well-kept vineyards, olive trees, wheat fields, fruit trees and sunflowers fields.
