Italy: Lucca

On Tuesday I got three postcards: one from Italy, one from Germany and one from France.

The card from Italy shows the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro in Lucca. Lucca is a city in Tuscany. It was once an important centre of the textile industry and was among the most influential European cities in the 13th and 14th century. Today it is especially known for its intact Renaissance-era city walls. It seeks for the inclusion on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Thank You very much Alessandro!
