It is not easy to explain the beauty of this village, you must absolutely go there to be able to appreciate the beauty of this sort of living nativity scene. Despite being a very small village, it contains some beauties that deserve to be visited such as Ruins Rocca di Braccio with the former convent of Santa Caterina, the Rocca d'Aries, the Church of San Francesco and many other places, especially churches that will be a paradise for architecture lovers. The distance from La Pietra Rara is just 13 km., the small distance could tempt you to dine in one of the delightful restaurants of Montone and then go back "home" to La Pietra Rara.
