Pisa
plays a main role from an artistic point of
view: here the renawal in architecture,
in sculpture and painting anticipate
the florentine movement of the renaissance:
towers, castles, churches, monasteries, all scattered
on the top of hills along the rivers and in the
ancient streets. The natural and environmental
heritage is particularly attractive: in the
area you can visit the Natural Park of Migliarino-
San Rosssore, Massaciuccoli, the Pisano
Mountain,
the Hills, the Coastline at Marina di Vecchiano,
Marina di Pisa and Tirrenia The thermal
baths are an attractive proposal too: Casciana
Terme, San Giuliano and Uliveto
Terme. In its streets, squares, churches and
palaces, Volterra maintains elements characteristic
of different historical periods: from the Etruscans
to the Romans from the Middle Age to the 18th
century. |
