Famous for its art, history and evocative landscape, Tuscany is a region where the past and the present merge together and coexist in perfect harmony. The great art centres of Florence, Pisa and Siena and the medieval towns such as San Gimignano and Pienza bear timeless witness to a thousand years of history, culture and art.
Tuscany alone has more classified historical monuments than any country in the world. Historically, artistically, and scenically, including towns like Pisa (known for its leaning tower) and Siena, Tuscany is the warm center of Italy.

It's the perfect spot to take a vacation, and enjoy, as they say in Italy, "il dolce far niente" - the sweetness of doing nothing.

Tuscany and the Renaissance are forever entwined; the region was home to the genius of the painters Fra Angelico, Botticelli, and Leonardo da Vinci; sculptors Michelangelo, Donatello, and Cellini; writers Dante and Machiavelli; and the physicist Galileo. Revive your senses in Florence, Pisa, and Siena; these cities abound with priceless treasures, art masterpieces, and unforgettable monuments and buildings.

Visit the Tuscan village of Volterra, and its Piazza di Priori, a palace designed by Maestro Riccardo. The Leaning Tower of Pisa (Torre Pendente) is a famous world landmark. Designed by Bonnano Pisano, this eight-story tower is a magnificent example of Romanesque architecture.
