"I went to Lari and, from its fortress, I pointed at a vast land, the must beautiful part of Tuscany", Leopoldo II Asburgo-Lorena, Granduca di Toscana, 1847.

Surely Lari is one of the most beautiful sites of the Pisa’s Province. The centre of the town, the heart of Lari from the Etrurian age, is powered by a medieval fortress which has restored in the seventeenth century. To reach the top of it, you walk caressing sweet hills covered with a rich vegetation and good plough fields. Although it is located only 130 mt above sea level, from Lari you can see a panorama which goes from the Mounts of Pisa to the Balze of Volterra and from the Leghorn coast to the interior Pisa’s Province. It’s delightful to cross its walls, to lose oneself thorough its streets, to discover the history of it, to be amazed by the sudden opening of natural sceneries, to take refuge between the fortress walls.
