Michelangelo’s David

No visit to Florence would be complete without a visit to the Galeria dell’Academia to witness Michelangelo’s most famous masterpiece. The statue, completed between 1501 and 1503, depicts David before his historic victory over Goliath.

Panforte

A traditional Italian dessert containing fruit and nuts, and which resembles fruitcake. Dating back to 13th century Siena, documents from 1205 show that panforte was paid to the monks and nuns of a local monastery as a tax.

Thermal Spas

There are three thermal spas near Mount Amiata: Bagni San Filippo, Bagno Vignoni and thermal springs flow endlessly from deep underground.

Lucca

The city of Lucca is famous for its intact Renaissance-era walls. The rectangular grid of its historic centre preserves the Roman street plan, and the Piazza San Michele occupies the site of the ancient forum. Traces of the amphitheatre can still be seen in the Piazza dell’Anfiteatro.

Mount Amiata

Situated in the province of Siena, facing the gentle landscape of the Val d’Orcia, Mount Amiata is the highest (1736m) dormant volcano in Italy. A great area for sports lovers and those who want to explore this beautiful territory by bike, on foot or simply visiting the historical hamlets.

Galleria degli Uffizi (Florence)

Houses great Renaissance works by the masters: Giotto’s ‘Ognissanti Maestà’, Botticelli’s ‘Birth of Venus’, Leonardo da Vinci’s ‘Annunciation’ and Michelangelo’s ‘Holy Family’. Thoroughly brain-draining but worth seeing.

Casa Puccini

A charming museum converted from the former childhood home of the great opera composer Giacomo Puccini. It contains personal letters, opera drafts and the piano on which he created his last opera, Turandot. The annual Puccini opera festival takes place in Torre del Lago (Jul-Aug).

Shopping

A pristine rural landscape with an unspoilt Tuscan coastline. Stone pines, low hills, Mediterranean maquis, beach and sea span the coastal area between the town of Talamone and the Ombrone estuary.

Maremma, Tuscany Maremma, Tuscany

Etruscan cities

Tuscany is considered to be the cradle of Etruscan civilization (9BC to 1AD). Ancient Etruria was centred on a confederation of twelve great Etruscan cities, which included Arezzo, Cortona, Chiusi, Populonia and Volterra and which bear witness to this extraordinary civilisation.
