Why You Shouldn’t Miss This

Lucca, situated close to the Tyrrhenian Sea, is a walled city that is well-known for its numerous public squares. The most famous of them is the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, built on the site of an ancient Roman amphitheatre. An astonishing 101 churches are present and all of them embody the evolution of the architectural styles of Italy. Cycling and walking are the best ways to go around Lucca due to its narrow alleys and streets.

Forte dei Marmi translates to 'Fort of the Marbles'. The name originates from the defensive fort that was built in the centre of the town square. Situated in the province of Lucca, the 185.5-square-kilometer town is very popular in the summers, when hundreds of tourists visit the beachside retreat.

Pisa has been an economic hub since the Roman Empire and been a centre for art and architecture since the 11th Century.
