Lucca is one of the cities most loved all of Tuscany, a stop that can not really miss in a classic itinerary to the discovery of the region.

***************
It is famous for its intact Renaissance-era city walls

Beginning in Roman times, continuing through the Middle Ages, on to the Napoleonic era and finally to the Risorgimento, Lucca's monuments, churches, palaces and roads, even its very shape have a story to tell. Each layer blending with preceding ages marking the growth and changes of the city.

Guinigi Tower (Torre Guinigi)
The Torre Guinigi rises above via Sant'Andrea, crowned by holm oaks to symbolise rebirth. It was added by the family in the late 1300s, with the aim of giving a refined look one of the houses, in a period when numerous bell-towers were going up within the walls of Lucca, as were the towers, an emblem of prestige of the richest families.
The Tower was built in brick; its imposing bulk was lightened by mullioned three-light and four-light windows and decorated by coats of arms, cornices and plaques. Since then it has been one of the symbols of the town.
Today the Tower is owned by the Lucca town council and is a place not to be missed in the town: going up it is a must, and its top is one of the most fascinating points to stand in the shade of the holm oaks, admiring Lucca's little architectural jewels from above.

Piazza dell'Anfiteatro
The amphitheatre, built as the centre of entertainment outside the Roman town, is today the centre of town life and the very symbol of Lucca.
It is a unique elliptical-shaped plaza, theatre of the life of the citizens of Lucca, closed in an embrace of medieval houses and, in spite of the passing of the millennia, is always alive and witness to innumerable changes.

When its was created, for spectacles and gladiator games, the amphitheatre of Lucca was an imposing structure, with fifty-four arches and a cavea able to hold as many as ten thousand spectators.
Its construction began in the 1st century AD under the Emperor Claudius and was concluded in the Flavian period, generously financed by a rich citizen, as seen from an honorary inscription discovered during excavations in the 1800s.

Church of San Giusto

Church of San Michele in Foro
They were decorated with the use of multi-coloured marbles, which begin to suggest the Gothic and are obviously influenced by the Lombard style.
Finally, at the highest point, the large statue of the Archangel St Michael killing the Dragon was added, with metal wings, and two angels with the function of typically Gothic spires so that the church, already soaring in isolation, stretches even more upwards.
During the 13th and 14th centuries the roof was rebuilt and the bell-tower, incorporated into the right-hand transept, remained thus until the early 1800s.

Basilica of San Frediano

Lucca - Toskana - Tuscany - Toscana - Italy

Schönheiten von Lucca in der Toskana
mit Piazza dell'anfiteatro, Die Piazza ist der Innenraum des römischen Amphitheaters.
Kathedrale San Martino, San Michele in Foro, San Frediano, San Francesco.

Lucca (in der Antike: Luca) ist eine italienische Stadt in der Toskana und Hauptstadt der Provinz Lucca. Sie liegt im Tal des Flusses Serchio ca. 20 km nordöstlich von Pisa und 20 km östlich der toskanischen Küste. Im 13. und 14. Jahrhundert zählte Lucca zu den einflussreichsten europäischen Städten.
Die großen Plätze, die romanischen Kirchen und die mittelalterlichen Türme zeugen heute noch von der einstigen Bedeutung dieser Stadt. Ihre von vier Toren durchbrochenen Befestigungsanlagen wurden 1504 begonnen und 1645 fertiggestellt und zählten lange zu den bemerkenswertesten Italiens. Sie sind heute noch gut erhalten und tragen eine von Bäumen gesäumte Promenade.

One day in Trieste, Italy (what to visit)

One day in Trieste, Italy (what to visit)
The Province of Trieste is situated towards the end of a narrow strip of land in southeast Friuli Venezia Giulia, between the Adriatic Sea and Italy's border with Slovenia. This is an extraordinary destination for its historic treasures, artworks and its middle-European character. Off Trieste's coast is its broad Gulf, with numerous tiny bays, small harbors and breathtaking reefs; and of course Miramare Castle is accompanied by the splendid blue of the sea.The area of Trieste is characterized by the steep karstic landscape continually revealing different, amazing and charming features. Close to the coast is a rocky moor with Mediterranean vegetation, where the Bora wind blows, while inland are hills with hollows and scrubs. Protected areas include the Val Rosandra Nature Reserve; the Marine Reserve of Miramare, within a coastal sea landscape of sharp rocks and a wide variety of underwater flora and fauna; and the Falesie di Duino Nature Reserve, with white cliffs overhanging the sea. The charm of the area resides not only in its natural traits, but also in the elegant city of Trieste, where the Habsburg influence is noticeable; the inland small towns with their longstanding traditions; and other quaint touristic draws on the coast - countless gems set within this tiny strip of land.
10. Top Tourist Attractions in #Trieste:
1. Harbor, 2. Piazza dell'Unità d'Italia, 3. Canale Grande, 4. Teatro Romano (Roman Theater), 5. Colle San Giusto (San Giusto hill), 6. Castello di San Giusto, 7. Cattedrale di San Giusto, 8. Molo Audace, 9. Piazza della Borsa and the Jewish ghetto, 10. City Aquarium.

Cristoforo, Torre delle Ore, Torre del Travaglio, S. Andrea, Torre Guinigi, Mercato del Carmine, Chiesa Santi Simone e Giuda, Piazza Anfiteatro Romana, Basilico S. Frediano, casa natale di Boccherini, la fantastica Passeggiata delle Mura, Palazzo Pfanner, Baluardo S. Croce, Via delle Conce, Porta S. Donato, casa natale di Puccini ... e mentre decanto le bellezze della città, leggo pure male i miei appunti ...càvea ... cavèa ... eh sì che studiai latino per una dozzina d' annetti. Bene, percorso l' intero anello della cerchia delle Mura, torno in stazione e lascio Lucca ... ricordando il suo grande Giacomo Puccini. Ma il video sulla Ferrovia Aulla-Lucca ... continua ancora ... Alla prossima!

LUCCA - Piazza dell'Anfiteatro

Lucca - Piazza dell'Anfiteatro - Sony RX10M3 filmata in 4K.






La piazza dell'Anfiteatro fu edificata sui resti dell'antico anfiteatro romano (II secolo d.C.), che ne determinarono la forma ellittica chiusa.





La piazza nacque nel medioevo e fu progressivamente riempita di costruzioni, variamente utilizzate come deposito di sale, polveriera, carcere. L'accesso alla piazza è possibile tramite 4 porte a volta, ma solo una di queste, la più bassa, ricalca esattamente uno degli originari accessi. Una curiosità da notare, è la croce incisa su una mattonella al centro della piazza, nel punto di intersezione tra le 4 porte.

Imagine a beautiful little Tuscan town protected by massively thick 16th-century walls, featuring some of Italy's finest medieval and Renaissance architecture, superb dining, antique markets, classical and rock music festivals, easy access to stunning nearby villas in the surrounding hills and with endless beaches less than half an hour away. Lucca is one of Tuscany's best-kept secrets.
A wealthy and colorful town that draws a more discerning tourist than Florence or Pisa, it is sufficiently off the beaten track to have kept its civility and reserve. Lucca is a city of merchants who know how to woo the visitor and the shopper, but the pace of life varies between slow and slower.
Lucca has one particularly stunning feature - ancient ramparts that ring the old city. The inhabitants built these brick walls in the 16th century for defense. Today, walk (or bike) around the city on the wide shaded walkways atop the walls. If that doesn't tire you out, climb up the Torre Guinigi - the 130 ft. tower has an ancient oak tree on top!
Worth seeing are the churches San Michele in Foro and San Frediano, the cathedral San Martino, the shopping street via Fillungo, Palazzo and Torre Guinigi (14th c.), the latter is one of the few still existing, plant with stone oaks, clan towers (at the heyday of Lucca in the city there were, inclusive church towers, about 170 towers) and the Piazza Anfiteatro. On the ruins of the Roman amphitheater, churches and houses were built, which now form a beautiful oval square.
Lucca is situated 19 m. above sea level on an alluvial plateau, to the left of the Serchio river, not far from the Tyrrhenian coast. An important road junction in Roman times, Lucca was the capital of the Lombard Duchy of Tuscia and subsequently (8th century) the seat of the Carolingian Marquisate of Tuscany. Established as a free municipality (early 12th century), the town grew in political and economical importance, though it was often troubled by internal disputes and rivalry with Pisa. In the first half of the 14th century, it was under various Signorie and in 1369 it became a Republic remaining independent, except during the Guinigi Signorie (1400-1430) and the Napoleonic period, until 1847 when it was included in the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, from then on sharing its fortunes.
The town lies within a circle of 16th century walls which, in the 19th century, were transformed into a tree-lined avenue; it has therefore maintained its characteristic medieval structure.

Lucca è una delle principali città d'arte d'Italia, celebre anche al di fuori dei confini nazionali soprattutto per la sua intatta cinta muraria intatta descrive un perimetro di 4.450 m circa intorno al nucleo storico della città; la stessa cerchia, trasformata già a partire dalla seconda metà dell'Ottocento in piacevole passeggiata pedonale, risulta a tutt'oggi come una delle meglio conservate in Europa. Le mura di Lucca furono costruite fra la metà del 1500 e la metà del 1600 allo scopo di sostituire la cinta muraria del 1200 che con l'avvento delle nuove armi da fuoco risultava del tutto inadeguata, così nel 1544 iniziò la costruzione delle nuove mura che in alcuni tratti incorporarono quelle medievali, ma per l'ottanta per cento tracciarono un percorso del tutto nuovo. Lungo il perimetro delle mura sono disposti undici baluardi: Baluardo San Salvatore, Baluardo San Pietro, Baluardo San Martino, Baluardo San Frediano, Baluardo Santa Croce, Baluardo San Donato, Baluardo San Paolino, Baluardo Santa Maria, Baluardo San Colombano, Baluardo San Regolo, Baluardo la Libertà , disposti irregolarmente e di forma diversa. In prossimità di ciascun baluardo, sul lato interno delle mura, erano ubicate le Casermette, dov'era alloggiato il corpo di guardia. Le porte sono sei: Porta Elisa, Porta San Jacopo, Porta Sant' Anna, Porta San Donato, Porta Santa Maria, al di sopra della quale è collocato lo stemma della città e tra i due animali araldici vi è la statua della Madonna, che da il nome alla porta, ed infine Porta San Pietro, che è la porta più antica di Lucca, progettata dall'architetto militare Alessandro Resta nel 1565. Costruita nel punto dove sorgeva la porta principale dell'antica cerchia medievale ne incorporò molti elementi decorativi.In origine la cinta delle mura aveva solo tre porte, per rendere meno vulnerabil il sistema difensivo. Tra il 1811 e il 1931 furono aperte le altre tre porte sul lato nord e ovest. La Porta San Pietro era l'unica dalla quale potevano entrare in città gli stranieri, dopo aver consegnato le armi al posto di guardia. Alla sera tutte le porte venivano chiuse e nessuno poteva entrare o uscire, nel 1711per la prima volta la Porta San Donato venne lasciata aperta anche di notte, con una guarnigione che ne controllava il passaggio.
