Florence Province, Tuscany
|
|
|
|
A beautiful, scenic and sometimes crowded province, there are
many reasons to choose this area as your base. Its proximity to
the city of Florence, remnants
of the Medici legacy wherever you go and the many famous hill towns
that are easy to explore are just a few of the reasons that keep
people returning again and again. This
province includes the northern area of the Mugello and Val di Sieve
with interesting towns such as Borgo San Lorenzo, San Piero a Sieve,
Scarperia - famous for their knife making since medieval times -
and Vicchio, the birthplace of Giotto and Fra Angelico, the
beautiful rolling hills between Florence and Siena know the world
over as "Chianti" that not only have magnificent vistas, but also
produce some of Italy's finest wines. With so many well known towns
in this province, you must find time to visit the smaller ones.
Tavarnelle Sant'Andrea in Percussina where Machiavelli lived when
he was exiled and Morrocco where if you pass by at 5 pm you can
hear the Carmelite nuns singing their vespers. Visit the little
known town of Castelfiorentino to view the frescoes of Benozzo
Gozzoli. For a breathtaking climb, take a drive to the town of
Vinci and on to the hamlet of Anchiano, the birthplace of Leonardo
where there is one of the largest olive groves in Italy. And of
course this province's capital, the birthplace of the Renaissance
and keeper of 30% of the world's greatest works of art.
