Found at the base of the Apuan Alps, Lucca is one of the most visited cities in Tuscany. The village is less than thirty minutes from the Versilia coast and is a great place to visit for visitors who are sick of climbing and steep roads since it isn’t on the hillside. Visitors can come to Lucca by car or train with trains leaving from Florence and Pisa. The attractions in Lucca are centered around the town’s ancient history including Piazza dell ‘Anfiteatro, and archeological remains housed beneath the 12th-century churches and villas. The walls around the fortress are now used as a pedestrian promenade and are one of the main attractions in the city now.
