Cortona is one of the most famous the Tuscan hill towns although it's important to realise that Cortona is more of a Tuscany "hillside town" than "hilltop town" and consequently has a great many steep streets and lanes and only one horizontal one - by no means unique in this part of Italy. Nevertheless, for anyone visiting central Italy, the sights of Cortona are definitely worth a day at the very least, preferably two days
