LUCCA CLASSIC IN THE ROMAN AMPHITHEATER
|
WELCOME TO LUCCA’S MOST UNUSUAL RESIDENCE!
The apartment is located in the historical center (the Roman Amphitheater) of the old city of Lucca in Tuscany, Italy. Lucca is a city of 10,000 people living inside the medieval walls and about 50,000 in a large provincial area around it. The city is completely enclosed within walls and there is reduced automobile and other traffic inside.
Lucca was an important and very prosperous independent city-state and a Principality under the House of Bourbon until 1847 when it became part of Grand Duchy of Tuscany. In 1860 Tuscany became part of a united Kingdom of Italy.
Lucca is located 15 miles north of Pisa (a major international airport and rail link), 45 miles west of Florence and 10 miles from the beaches of Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi. There are trains to all these locations every hour as well as bus service. Taxi service is available at all hours at the railroad station.
