Europe 2016 – Lucca, Italy (2)

When I was in Lucca, I noticed that automobile traffic was very light inside the walled area. That’s because general traffic is not allowed. So, locals tend to bicycle everywhere. Also, the maze of winding streets reminded me a little of Seville, Spain. You can easily get lost if you don’t pay attention. Overall, Lucca is a […]

Lucca is located at the foot of the Apuan Alps, near the coast of Versilia. It has well-preserved Renaissance walls that encircle its historic center and cobblestone streets, a beautiful square built on the […]

Europe 2016 – Pisa, Italy (2)

My last batch of photos of Pisa is here! For those who wonder why the tower is leaning, here is the answer. The tower was built on soft ground — a mixture of clay, fine sand and shells. When the third story was reached in 1178, the shifting soil caused destabilization of its three-meter-deep foundations. After a […]

Europe 2016 – Pisa, Italy (1)

The day after arriving in Florence, my friend and I went on a guided tour to Pisa. Pisa is the capital city of the Province of Pisa and is nested in the beautiful region of Tuscany.
