Mountains surrounding the city by micas_pt
The day we visited Lucca was our second day in Tuscany and I was enjoying a lot the landscape - the plains spotted with some hills as I had seen on countless photos and books. But it was only when I went to the top of Tower Guinigi that I noticed that Lucca was surrounded by mountains!! Although I hadn?t noticed it before, it struck my attention ? the imposing mountains all around, as if Lucca was enclosed not only by the walls but also by the mountains. These mountains provide a majestic background to photos, even if they are not clearly seen on cloudy days.
