Hello dear friends,

434124670_25051831887765760_1931491473235655475_n.jpg

I was pleased to see that yesterday's post was met with tremendous success, but today I want to introduce you, through my photos, to another very interesting place in Tuscany, a town that is probably much more famous, thanks to an international figure that many of you surely know.

I'm talking about Lajatico, a town or rather a village located in the province of Pisa, which is beautiful for its hilly landscape, breathtaking views, and rich history. It has become famous because it is the birthplace of the tenor Andrea Bocelli, who I believe is known worldwide.

I had always passed by this village in haste, but this time I had the chance to take my classic stroll through the streets of this ancient place. Moreover, you will notice in the latest photos I have shared in this post that I also had the opportunity to visit the Teatro del Silenzio, one of the most important attractions here in Lajatico, which is practically an open-air theater designed by Andrea Bocelli himself. Every year, the tenor holds his concerts here, attracting thousands of fans from all over the world.

What struck me the most about this place is the landscape that surrounds this village. In my opinion, it's one of the most beautiful in all of Tuscany. If you're passionate about hiking or cycling, there are plenty of places to explore, immersing yourself in these beautiful countryside vistas.

Anyway, the village itself is very beautiful, as you can see from the photos, and here, as in other villages I have visited, they have managed to integrate contemporary art with the art of the beautiful historic village. So far, this is one of the unique things I see in Tuscany, and I'm very pleased about it.

434148998_25051829451099337_8769207551823834368_n.jpg

Then the thing I like most about these places is that this contemporary art also brings colors, making this village even more naturally beautiful.

434140981_25051817654433850_7509321670849100068_n.jpg

In conclusion, I can say that this place was also a beautiful discovery, and surely if I have the opportunity, I will return here. But above all, if you come to Tuscany, I recommend you to visit this place, which is not only the birthplace of Andrea Bocelli but also a beautiful village to explore, and that is the most important thing.
