The Tuscany region
Tuscany is very well known among tourists. Not only for cities like Florence, Pisa and Siena, but also for its rich history and the outstanding wines from this region. Very few places in the world can boast an artistic legacy with contents so deeply rooted in the territory and popular culture as Tuscany. The countless testimonies of art in Tuscany indeed narrate a story as articulated and complex as it is unique and unrepeatable, starting at the dawn of civilisation and continuing, without solution of continuity, up until present day. The first-time visitor to the lands of Tuscany can not but be amazed by the natural symbiosis between landscape and culture, history and the expressive means of architecture and town-planning, the urban and rural dimension, and its patrimony of art, architecture, monuments and museums.
Pistoia / Chiesina Uzzanese area
The sea, mountains and most beautiful cities of Tuscany are all easily to reach from the villa
Tuscan beaches If you are thinking of long beaches stretching for miles and a place to relax in and live it up at the same time, you need to head for the dolce vita of Versilia. This famous coastline, framed by the superb arch of the Apuan Alps, the legendary mountains of white marble is worthy of the cover of travel brochures.And not far from the world famous Leaning Tower, long sweeps of sand open up, but that is not all. There is the sea, sand, pine woods and the Natural Park of San Rossore. Maybe your imagination will be sparked up by the bays on the Etruscan coast. Maybe it will be the untamed vegetation and the blue waters of the Tuscan islands with the cliffs plunging into the sea. Argentario, where the intense green of the unspoilt Maremma countryside fades into the crystal blue waters of the sea.
Tuscan mountains In the Apuan Alps you will ascend into marble cathedrals, but you will also discover the kingdom of Lunigiana, full of enchanted caves and castles. The dazzling white of the quarries on one side and the wild, green valley of Garfagnana on the other. If you feel the call of spirituality, awaiting you are the sacred Casentino forests with their monasteries and hermitages along the way where nature is not the only thing to discover. While if you love the sound of the woods, you will be enthralled by the stage that is the Mugello, an aristocratic and timeless land. You can be overcome by the triangular heights of Monte Amiata, so lonely, but at the same time full of roe and fallow deer, by mountains embraced in the world's most famous vineyards or by the wooded Abetone which transforms into pistes for ski lovers in the winter.Waiting for you to explore are miles and miles of pathways for trekking, mountain biking, skiing, but also for absolute rest.
Tuscany inland Hills, cultivated fields, farms, parish churches, castles, medieval hamlets, this is the suggestive scenario that unfolds for the visitor to the Tuscan inland.
