Review:
Livorno is a major port city along Tuscany’s western coast, home to a population of more than 150,000 residents.
The area has been inhabited since the Neolithic Age and was constructed as an ideal Italian town during the Renaissance while under the rule of the House of Medici. Today, it is known for its collection of splendid civic, religious, and military historic architecture, including its Venezia Nuova, Cathedral of Saint Francis of Assisi, and 16th-century Fortezza Vecchia. The unique Terrazza Mascagni waterslide promenade serves as the city’s center thoroughfare, while the Monumento dei quattro mori honors the rule of the Medicis.
Popular seafood restaurants and museums are located throughout the city’s cultural regions, including the canal-lined Venezia Nuova quarter.
