60-Second Geography Tuscany |

One of the most amazing areas of Tuscany is the coastal city of Viareggio, which hugs the crystal clear waters of the Tyrrhenian. Founded during the 12th century, this little piece of Tuscany is credited with the production of some of the world’s most beautiful yachts. The city’s love of boats and access to the water keep its seaports overwhelmed by boats of all shapes and sizes, making this a seafarer’s paradise. The area is also home to one of the highlights of any trip to Italy – Carnivale. This tradition, which occurs during February and March, is a European favorite. The entire town embraces it, offering themed menus at restaurants while the larger-than-life papier-mâché floats dominate the streets to the delight of spectators. |
