Piazza Santa Maria Tours

Find a spot to sit and watch the world go by at Piazza Santa Maria. If its well-trodden paths could talk, this historic square would have plenty of tales to tell.

This public square is often on the itineraries of travelers to Lucca Historical Center. But Piazza Santa Maria isn't the only drawcard in the area. Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, Guinigi Tower, and Palazzo Pfanner are some other worthwhile sights nearby.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (458 reviews)
Villa Cora was delightful in every way. The only negative thing I have to say is that I am not currently still there. Alas, I would highly recommend Villa Cora as a jumping off point for your Tuscan or Firenze adventures.
