city of Lucca
Built on top of a Roman
colony, the city of Lucca dates back to 180
BC. Visit the Roman amphitheatre and
discover the many churches and piazzas and
other medieval buildings.
No. 5:
Taste wine in
Chianti
Tuscany produces
world-famous wines, its most popular being
Chianti. Travel to the Chianti region for a
sojourn of bacchanalian proportions. If you
still want more wine then try the rich red
wines of the Montalcino vineyards and the
Vino Nobile from Montepulciano.
Montepulciano is the highest hill-town of
the region, so take time to enjoy the views
of Southern Tuscany from these heights.
