After visiting the main sights, taking a photo against the background of the Leaning Tower, you will go to Lucca, where you will get acquainted with the first capital of Tuscany. During the IX-X centuries, Lucca played an important political role in the life of the region and was its capital. Its rich history dates back more than two thousand years. The settlement founded by the Etruscans, which later became a Roman colony, has its historical roots in the ancient past. Strategically located, the city played an important role in the Roman Empire. Perhaps this is why the city was chosen as a meeting place for Julius Caesar and the general Crassus. Napoleon Bonaparte also left his mark on the history of Lucca. After subjecting the city to his authority, he placed the administration of the city in the hands of his sister Eliza. Being an active person, she was actively engaged in changing the appearance of Lucca, bringing changes to the architecture and landscape of the city. Perhaps that is why it is called "Little Paris". Lucca has a large number of beautiful churches and cathedrals, which is why it is also called the city of the Hundred Churches. Explore this wonderful city, you will start with a walk along its fortress walls, which serve as a place of rest and walking for residents and its guests. From the height of the walls, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the historical center with its streets and secret places that are difficult to see when walking through the streets. The cathedral of the VI century Duomo (San Martino) will open its doors for you, you will see the main symbol of the city – the crucifixion of the "Holy Face" and the magnificent tomb of Ilaria del Carreto.

Pisa – a strong maritime power in the Middle Ages, is a serious competitor of Genoa and Venice, challenging Florence for the right to access the sea.
