On the flight to Italy we watch a move about Michelangelo and got inspired to visit a marble quarry. I was surprised to find a Viatour outing that fit our plan perfectly. This seems to be very popular with European tourist and there were several jeeps on the tour with us. No one we had spoken to that had been to Tuscany had ever mentioned seeing this sight- well worth it- First it's in the north of Tuscan and a different terrain and landscape, and seeing how marble is quarried now and in the time of Michelangelo was really a unique opportunity. On the way, stop in the town of Pietrasanta which is an artist workshop area and a lovely town.

Castello Malaspina di Fosdinovo

The Castle, a feud of the branches of the Malaspina del Ramo Fiorito holdings from the fourteenth to the eighteenth century, is of great importance historically, and above all, architecturally. The construction of the massive fortress, which merges with the underlying sandstone rock so the whole structure seems carved in stone, began in the second half of the twelfth century.

Piazza Alberica

la piazza si trova nel centro storico di Carrara, è tra le più belle d'italia, nn è molto conosciuta a causa della poca frequenza da parte dei turisti che dalle cave si spostano direttamente altrove, ha un panorama mozzafiato e i palazzi sono un luccichio di colori, qua e la bar e localetti nonostante la piazza sia elegante e regale grazie all'imponente fontana dedicata a Beatrice con due grossi leoni da cui sgorga l'acqua proveniente da una sorgente delle li vicine alpi.
