Le Biancane

TIME : 2016/2/18 21:16:59

At this geothermal park 21km north of Massa Marittima, steam has been transformed into power by vapour turbines since 1916, supplying power to one million Tuscan households (and meeting 25% of Tuscany's overall energy demands). Visitors can take a two-hour walk through wooded terrain belching steam from under the earth's crust and sheltering amazing clumps of sulphur crystals.
