Hotels in Lucca
Lucca is a city in Tuscany, northern central Italy,
situated on the river Serchio in a fertile plain near (but not on) the
Ligurian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Lucca.
LUCCA, 17km northeast of Pisa, is the most graceful of Tuscany's provincial capitals, set inside a ring of Renaissance walls fronted by gardens and huge bastions. It's quiet without being dull and absorbs its few tourists with ease.
The city lies at the heart of one of Italy's richest agricultural regions, and it has prospered since Roman times. Its heyday was the eleventh to fourteenth centuries, when the silk trade brought wealth and, for a time, political power. Today Lucca is reckoned among the wealthiest and most conservative cities in Tuscany, its prosperity gained largely through silk and high-quality olive oil.
