Things To Do
Tuscany is a region in central Italy. Its capital, Florence, is home to some of the world’s most recognizable Renaissance art and architecture, including Michelangelo’s "David" statue, Botticelli’s works in the Uffizi Gallery and the Duomo basilica. Its diverse natural landscape encompasses the rugged Apennine Mountains, the island of Elba’s beaches on the Tyrrhenian Sea and Chianti’s olive groves and vineyards.
Hill towns such as San Gimignano offer a taste of the medieval period, with Romanesque and Gothic towers built by rival families. Galileo’s hometown, Pisa, is famed for the Leaning Tower sunk into the marshy soil, but it’s also an energetic college city. Local specialties include Brunello wine, biscotti from Prato and thick-cut Florentine steaks.
