More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of the van onto sun-warmed stone and the first smell is coffee and sea-salt — Pisa’s marble square opens like a stage. The Leaning Tower tilts against a cerulean sky; bells still mark time while tourists thread around Romanesque façades. Later the road climbs into patchworked hills, vineyards giving way to a low, green ridge crowned by an organic dairy where steam and warm curds speak of centuries-old practice.
