TUSCANY, ART CAPITAL OF THE WORLDTraditions, History, Art, Wines and People
The Birthplace of Renaissance
Tuscany the largest Italian region on one side the Tyrrenian sea on the other the Appennine Mountain range. Florence the region capital and the most celebrated Italian tourist destination. But Siena is not only closest physically but also as tourist loved city.
Florence has a small airport and service from most of the European cities, but its short runway can create take-off and landing a bit questionable. Flying in and out of Bologna, 1 hour drive North, or Pisa one hour drive West can eliminate probelms with baggages.
A car is, almost indispensable to explore the countryside and appreciated the beauty of the Tuscan hilltowns.
