This is quite a pleasant town that unfolds with marsh and beach combination. Walking around is rather simple and the streets are not crowded. The fort at top is privately owned, so no tours/visits there. The walk is niice, though and the views great.

This is the small Dome of Grosseto. Around this Dome lays the towncentre with the shoppingstreets. It's inside the city walls. These days the main square is kinda under construction, which is too bad, because this place used to be a lot prettier before I have heard.

Shop until you drop! My favourite sentence on all my pages, I guess ;o) Well, if you like to go shopping - I am sure you do if you are a woman- go shopping here! Nice clothes and jewels to be found for sure! Note: this is not a good place for touristic shopping if you are into that stuff.

The main square of Grosseto with all the shops, the Dome and Palace nearby. This square is at the moment a sandy kinda mess, because of the rebuilding.

The Gouvenors Palace looks nice for a picture. But unfortunately you can't enter it or walk around...
