Pistoia

Located in the heart of Tuscany, the city of Pistoia is a hidden gem that deserves to be discovered. Its historic center winds like a labyrinth of medieval streets, where you can find small squares and artisan shops, but still not very touristy compared to other Tuscan cities.
The city preserves many artistic and architectural treasures, including the beautiful Piazza del Duomo, with its Romanesque cathedral and the baptistery of San Giovanni, considered one of the masterpieces of Romanesque art in Italy. Other attractions include the Civic Museum, which houses local works of art, and the Palazzo Fabroni, which houses contemporary art exhibitions.
But the city is not only history and art, but also food and wine culture: Pistoia cuisine is a delicious combination of traditional Tuscan flavors and local products, such as fine olive oil, honey and wine. Furthermore, the city hosts a very lively weekly market, where you can find fresh and high quality products from the surrounding countryside.
Pistoia’s position, at the foot of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, also makes it an ideal starting point for excursions and outdoor activities.
