Never Heard of Marktbreit

Another place on the Main river, but Marktbreit wins the Picturesque Award. The romantic small town of around 3,700 sits in the middle of wine country with its old city wall and canal. I have never heard of the ancient Roman settlement until a recent quick visit on a warm German day. It was time well spent.

Marketbreit is located 136 km from Frankfurt and 30km from Wurzburg.

More Than A Tower in Pisa

Take a Trip to Pisa, yes, the Leaning Tower is the main attraction, but the Tuscanny city offers more.

The Pisa Airport is close to the city center. From the airport, next to the parking lot. take the people mover to the main train station, a ten minute ride.

Getting around the university city is easy. Walk down the main street, Cross Italia where there are many shops, bars and restaurants.

A historic stroll along the old wall is a must, starting at the Arno River or at the Leaning Tower.

With so many students, Pisa is blessed with squares filled with drinking and eating establishments.

Schon and Lovely

I did not anything about the Italian city Lucca. A German friend recommended the ancient Tuscany settlement calling it “Schon” meaning “Lovely”. Located thirty minutes from both Pisa and the beach by train, Lucca for any traveler would be a great stop off point to explore the region.

What struck me about the walled city were the picturesque settings of squares, narrow streets and towers. Strolling around looking up, forward, back or around there is a scene or architectural style ready for a photo. Blessed with many cafes and restaurants with authentic atmosphere, the morning cafe or dinner options are numerous.

Staying in Lucca for one day was not enough, next time, more.
