Sorano appears on the horizon an hour before you reach it: a cluster of towers and walls on a pale cliff, floating above the valley. The closer you get the stranger it becomes. The town is not built on rock — the town is rock, volcanic tufa carved and inhabited over two thousand years. The Etruscans started it. Everyone since has just kept adding floors. We are staying the night and it already feels like somewhere that requires more time than we have.
