Lucca is famous for its walls and a gorgeous typical italian town in Tuscany. It was founded more than 2000 years ago and became very wealthy in the Middle Age thanks to the production of silk.
The whole city is enclosed by walls built in the Renaissance which are still intact and topped by a lot of different types of trees. Inside the historical center you can admire narrow streets, Romanesque style churches, town houses and towers. Still today we have a lot of family conducted shops with typical Italian food and high quality fashion.
Highlights!
The Puccini Museum - birthplace of the opera composer
The Holy Face in the Cathedral - a acient representation of Jesus
Piazza del Anfiteatro - the old roman amphitheatre
