Our area has endless number of romanesque churches. Lucca is an architecture gem with lots of wonderful buildings, some of them as old as 2000 years and 98 churches.

Puccini lived in Lucchesia and also worked in Bagni di Lucca. The house where Puccini was born is now a museum house in Lucca. There are daily recitals in San Giovanni's church:
