Lucca is part and parcel
of Tuscany; the abode of the admirable Romanesque Architecture which is
always on display and can be seen from all over the town. The San Michele
and San Martino cathedrals are just two very good examples of the Romanesque
architecture that should be on any traveler's itinerary to Lucca. The geographical
position of Lucca also favors the town so much in terms of its sizeable
tourism potential. Lucca can be found close to the Serchio River; about
80km from Florence and 30km from Pisa. The town of Lucca itself dwells
upon a plateau with the Apuane Alps watching over it. The medieval walls
which characterize the town are thick and strong. These walls were originally
built in the 16th century but they still stand till today; thus surrounding
the entire town. As part of a walking tour, one can take a stroll along
or on top of the walls. This way of exercise alone offers a very good opportunity
to see many hidden sight-stops. |

so much stressful to you, how about going for a biking or walking outing
to visit the must-see sights so as to enjoy an enriching travel or holiday
experience to Lucca?
