Description
Here is everything you imagined Tuscany to be: palazzi, villas and churches, vineyards and lofty cypresses. Masterpieces of Renaissance painting and sculpture are there, but so is a great Chianti with a plate of steaming pasta. After the pageant of Siena's Palio, the magic towers of San Gimignano and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, take it easy on a beach at Viareggio and do some designer shopping in Florence. Tuscany is eternal.
