Always around
you the sea is the soul of the Etruscan costaline.
The sea lives in its history and landscape, reflect
the sunset, perfumes the air, offers a panorama
of small towns, buildsides and gently laps; the
pine forests and Mediterranean flora.
The Bolgheri, Orti Bottagone, and the Magona oases;
the Val di Cornia Parks and Livorno Hillsides; the
protected areas; the botanial gardens; the preserves
populated with rare and precious animals; thick
pine forests and deep woodlands, a countryside rich
with colors and scents. |

In the Etruscan costaline
nature, safeguarded and protected is not only
a frame but is the essence of this land.
In the fertile countryland, the wine road stretches
from the sea to the sloping hillsides. Lit by
the sun fittering through the trees illuminating
the vinegards, the wine road offers an itinerary
for the senes and the soul. The antique baths
at Venturina, from Etruscan and Roman times, are
invigorating and relaxing.
Considered the ideal city of the Italian Reinassence,
Livorno shows its history in its canals and fortified
walls, the web of the streets outlinen the antique
district of "La Venezia" and in the
Porto Mediceo dominated by towers and fortresses.

Mansions, neoclassical
buildings, wooden parks and liberty style villas
reveal a lively and open city wich developed in
the 1700's and 1800's.
The beautiful waters promote fishing, photography
and scuba diving.
The mild climate
and the Mediterranean breeze make it possible
to sail and to windsurf all year round.
Between the sea and
the countryside, there are both unmarked and deignated
paths for trekking, bicycling, and horseriding.
