Borgo a Mozzano

Posted on February 27, 2024 by admin

The town of Borgo a Mozzano is located on the right bank of the Serchio River with the Apuan Alps (Alpi Apuane) on the west and the Apennines on the east. It is the administrative center of an area rich in history, legends, and traditions. Borgo a Mozzano is known for one of the most mysterious and fascinating monuments in the entire province of Lucca: the Maddalena Bridge more commonly known as the Devil’s Bridge. The 90-meter long bridge is a remarkable piece of medieval engineering and associated with a rather particular legend. Borgo a Mozzano, however, is not only the Devil’s Bridge, its old historical center is worthy of a stroll to discover interesting buildings, churches, squares, and small gardens. In the gardens, azalea plants, which in the language of plants symbolize maternal love, can often be admired....

Look at Lucca

Posted on March 4, 2016 by admin

Often projects that come to fruition are born out of imagination, enthusiasm, and tenacity. I am not talking about major things like Steve Job’s iPhone that is a global phenomenon and worth millions, as is the online retailer Amazon, nor am I referring to life-altering inventions such as Edison’s light bulb or Marconi’s radio communication. I am talking about ideas on a smaller scale. Take the history, art, and culture of Lucca, combine them with secrets of the town and some anthropology, garnish with genuine Tuscan culinary art and flavor with lots of love and devotion.

It has been a great satisfaction to see the...

Nature abounds: there are rolling green hills, majestic mountains, a coast that alternates long and sandy beaches with rocky cliffs, natural hot springs, an archipelago of islands, protected natural areas and national parks. Even daily life has a particular rhythm. Lucca is in the northwest part...
