    Lucca, Also Known As the City of the Walls, Is One of the Most Beautiful Cities in Italy and Is LUCCA Characterized by the Massive Walls Surrounding the Scenter

    Lucca, also known as the city of the walls, is one of the most beautiful cities in Italy and is LUCCA characterized by the massive walls surrounding the scenter. This city is full of history from the romans to the Renaissance. LIQ who are we? LIQ, acronym of liceo internazionale quadriennale, is an Italian high school in Lucca, that during its four years course of studies , it proposes a special week called Liq week where the students are divided in groups that have interdisciplinary study opportunities in different languages. Indeed this project was made on this occasion by the students of first second and third years. Towers of Lucca Clock Tower The Clock Tower, also known as Torre delle Ore, is the city’s tallest tower. Torre delle Ore is tucked away in a corner of Via Fillungo, amid other tall medieval buildings. In the 13th century, the tower belonged to the Diversi family, with time it was passed on to other important families of Lucca. In 1490, the General Council of Lucca purchased the tower and commissioned the most prestigious jeweler and goldsmith, Labruccio Cerlotti of Lucca, to make a new clock. With time the clock needed continuous adjustments. At first it was used to calculate Roman time but later on, under Napoleon's reign the French method of telling time became permanent, therefore the Roman time was substituted by French time. Towers of Lucca Guinigi Tower The Guinigi Tower was built in the second half of the fourteenth century by the Guinigis, a rich merchant family. A tower’s height rejected the prestige and importance of the family that it belonged to and in fact, families competed to have the tallest tower.

The Royal Citadel of Messina, wanted by the King of Spain Charles II of Habsburg, was designed and built, at the end of the XVII century, by the military engineer Carlos de Grunenbergh. It is a "start fort" located at the entrance of its natural Sickle port, that is a strategic place for controlling the Strait of Messina, the port and especially the people living here. The project is neither retrospective or imitative of the past forms, nor free from the constraints and guidelines resulting from the historical-critical understanding, but conducted with conceptual rigor and with the specific aim of transmitting the monument to the future in the best possible conditions, even with the assignment of a new function.

The following tours are arranged by their thematic focus, recognizable by different colors. 2 FOOD & WINE The wine tour in Riomaggiore: meeting the winegrower, hiking through the vineyards, enjoy the wine tasting! Andrea, a young winemaker from Riomaggiore, follows the wine-growing traditions handed down over generations. He takes you on a unique and interesting wine tour. The tasting consists of two different wines offering you a complete new gustatory experience - very natural wines, produced respecting the vineyard and the earth, without the use of chemical products, sulfites and yeasts. The results are intense wines which, through their scents and flavors, will transmit you the special characteristics of the place where they have grown - rocks, sea, herbs… These are authentic wines that symbolize both past and future – because this is the way the ancestors produced the wine in the past, but wines rich in history and character will impress the future too. In the morning you take a bus and reach Andrea at the starting point and together you will walk on a little trail into his vineyard. This is a special panoramic place with a magnificent view over the steep Cinque Terre coast. Andrea will explain you his wine growing methods - respecting the vineyard and the earth, without the use of chemical products. Skillful and with sensitivity he combines modern methods with ancient equipment as the terra- cotta amphorae.

Whether on your own, with your family or with a partner, whether you are cycling or walking, in the Cinque Terre area fun, uncontaminated, wild landscapes, and breathtaking corners are just around the corner. The spectacular landscapes, the coast etched by the Mediterranean Sea and mountains behind the Ligurian sea, the bays that mirror that special light from the clear skies make the Cinque Terre a unique experience . Each village has its own special attractions and is rich in the best Italian folklore, food, etc ….. There is something here for everyone. You will never be disappointed. The "Cinque Terre", where "Terre" (lands) stands for maritime medieval fishermen’s villages, are a landscape included by UNESCO among the “World’s Heritage” due to their beauty, and the particularities which characterize this territory. The Cinque Terre, the “Five Lands“ or the “Five Villages” (Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, Monterosso) is famous all over the world, mainly thanks to its paths and walks which wind round the coast or reach the sanctuaries above each village. The breath-taking view can be enjoyed by everybody: young or old. Public transport (train, ferryboat, bus, etc..) offers an ideal easy trouble free way to enjoy the Cinque Terre at its best. The Five Lands are a group of five picturesque tiny villages along the coast surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and woods.
