Riviera Apuana.
A land which combines a variety of aspects within
its territory: mountains which seem to be diving into
the sea and a sea seeming to lap against the Apuan
mountains, which display their heart of white marble,
hills of an almost surreal green, ancient villages
bordering between the past and the present, castles
fearlessly resisting the passing of time, parishes
standing as testimony to stories lying somewhere between
legend and fact. Ideally divided between the coast
and the Lunigiana, this area is perfect for tourism
all year round: in the summer, it is the sea which
prevails over all other activities, but, in the other
seasons, fruits and fungi of all kinds, walks along
the ancient paths and enchanting caves are an irresistible
attraction for nature-lovers.
For history and art lovers, there is an endless choice
of museums, castles from different epochs, Medieval
parishes and villages. The marble quarries are an
attraction in themselves. They are one of a kind,
wounds in the mountain-side which bring a priceless
treasure to the surface. Accommodation of all types
is available throughout the territory, to satisfy
all requirements. There are numerous events of all
kinds on offer, to make everyone's stay a happy one.
