Tuscany is a legendary region in central Italy

that stretches from the Apennine Mountains to the west coast,

medieval towns and the impossibly beautiful cities of Florence,

Tuscany lures travelers with the promise of a warmer,

Here, high art mingles deliciously with warm sunshine

Tuscany changed the world forever when economic,

It was a new way of thought in which art and education were highly prized

and the search for happiness, a noble goal.

Although the world has changed much since then,

and visitors to this region can happily spend days and weeks slowly rediscovering them.

At the epicentre of the Renaissance was the capital city of Florence.

For centuries, powerful families competed with each other

and with the church to create the grandest buildings

and commission the finest artworks of their time.

The patronage of writers, artists and thinkers

bought prestige for the wealthy and under this system,

geniuses such as Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci thrived.

Other greats such as Botticelli and Rafael

also walked these streets and you can still see their work in the Accademia Gallery

which is one of the oldest art museums in the western world.

Florence’s architecture also flourished under this system

and many of the great buildings from that time remain.

With its historic piazzas, beautiful churches and ornate palaces,

Florence feels like a living, breathing museum.

Florence isn’t the only part of Tuscany that echoes with the gilded footsteps of history.

the province of Siena competed fiercely with Florence

and commissioned many of its own beautiful works to lure wealthy Florentine families.

and Montalcino which played a strategic role in generations of power struggles.

Sit high on the timeless ramparts of these towns which have remained almost unchanged

Pisa, known around the world for its famous tower,

is a wonderful place to discover on foot.

A couple of hours' drive away is the hilltop town of Volterra.

Skilled alabaster craftsmen have been turning this luminous stone

into pieces of art since the days of the Romans.

But perhaps Tuscany’s greatest artworks,

unspoiled beaches and wildflower-filled national parks,

Tuscany’s natural beauty has been seducing visitors since the days of the Romans.

Head to Tuscany’s west coast to discover coastline that stretches for hundreds of miles

and visit ancient ports that feel as if they have been here forever.

A little further south is a wilder part of Tuscany where you can enjoy rolling hills,

wildflowers and a warm appreciation of the good things in life,

Follow your palate along winding roads and sun-warmed olive groves to the vineyards of Chianti.

This area is world-famous for its earthy style of wine and many of the vineyards

each producing a wine that bears the castle’s name.

and Arrezzo are also famous for their wines.

Pair your wine with Tuscany’s famously simple food

and linger over picnics created with seasonal ingredients,

Tuscany’s abundant hills are full of locally grown produce

whose flavours capture the very essence of the land.

the Renaissance may now be a chapter in the history books but in Tuscany,

They linger in the gentle hills, the warm traditions, the grand art

and in the region’s never-ending search for happiness.
