Florence & Tuscany - Northwestern Tuscany (PDF Chapter)
This is the Northwestern Tuscany chapter from Lonely Planet’s Florence & Tusca-ny guidebook.

- maps
- meander through medieval Pisa and scale its iconic Leaning Tower at sunset
- transport
- hunt white truffles with a dog in autumnal woods near outrageously foodie San Minia-to
- restaurants & accommodation
