"The Beautiful Tuscan City of Lucca"

During my travels within Italy, I came upon a small but beautiful town called Lucca. Lucca is located in Tuscany, Italy coordinates 43 degrees 51'N 10 degrees 30' E.







The city itself is surrounded by a huge wall approximately 12 meters tall which can be scaled and walk upon for better viewing of the city.



Lucca is considered to be a "Hidden Gem" of Italy, because a lot of people overlook the town due to it's small size. Unbeknown to some is that within these high walls is a town with a insurmountable history!


With or without a tour guide to lead the way, the trip will be more then memorable. Limitless shops, dining, entertaining locals and literally a historical stature around every corner; it's a must see for any traveling enthusiast! 





Now for those of you who would like to stay over night to better fulfill your Lucca trip experience. I recommend staying at the "Grand Hotel Guinigi"! It is a 4 star hotel by Best Western located 2.2 km from the city of Lucca. 



All the way from car shows to goofy locals, prepare for a fun experience!
