The city of lucca is designed for the perfect bike ride. The walls are unique and beautiful and you wouldn't need more than a few hours to cover the city. The cathedrals and towers are good but similar to other italian cities. Nothing great there.
If you go to Lucca, you definitely have to go to this place, perfect to walk with your SO or just by yourself to explore. Great view!
Cute, small with great walls to walk around, not what you would think as they are large, wide and grassy with cyclists, tourists and runners. Good views across the town.2wanderers.com
The old town wall is a great spot to walk on or take a bike ride on top of it - it even has shady trees! Just loved it and great exercise after a nice lunch or dinner.Die alte Stadtmauer ist fantastisch - man kann darauf spazieren oder mit dem Rad fahren - es hat sogar Schatten unter den Baeumen! Gut als Gegenstueck zum guten Essen!
Lucca's wall are a great place to visit and enjoy the city. You can walk around it and have fun. Nice views from it. Attraction not to be missed,
游卢卡,当然少不了卢卡的卢卡城墙(Mura di Lucca)了。卢卡城墙(Mura di Lucca)是意大利重要的抵御火炮的要塞体系,1504年和1645年之间修建于托斯卡纳城市卢卡。在1589年,军事指挥官亚历山大·法尔内塞进行改建,加筑12处幕墙和11个棱堡,只开辟三个城门:圣彼得门(Porta San Pietro)、圣玛利亚门(Porta Santa Maria)和圣多纳托门(Porta San Donato)。东侧(佛罗伦萨方向)没有开设城门,以防备托斯卡纳大公国的领土扩张。圣安娜门(Porta Sant'Anna)开辟于1910年,卢卡人称之为“圣安娜洞”(Buco di Sant'Anna),以区别于古代的城门,1940年开辟的圣雅各门(Porta san Jacopo)也是如此。 在19世纪,卢卡城墙(Mura di Lucca)上的走道(passeggiata delle Mura)向公众开放,目前这是主要城市环路。 城墙上的小路城墙外的草坪如果从城外进入,不走大门的话,只能走这种小道了在城墙上一直玩到黄昏,黄昏的卢卡
This 4km city wall is fantastic for walking, cycles, roller blades, running or just taking in the great views. Loads of access points around and it will draw you into the city for a longer look. On Saturdays there is a large market which is the life and soul of the city as everyone appears to turn up at sometime. Good for access from the rail station and it allows great views of both the city and the mountains. It it the thing everyone has to do!
Lucca's intact wall encircling the ancient city is a defining feature of this wonderful town. The entire community (and visitors) uses it as a recreational amenity, with parks and a wide non-motorized promenade overlooking rooftops for bicycling, jogging, or a stroll.
Lucca's walls are more like earthworks than a simple barricade. The top of them is a park - a wide pathway, with trees on each side. On one side you get views of the little old town of Lucca, on the other of the Tuscan countryside. It's a nice place to have a walk or a bike ride. I found Lucca itself a bit dull for my liking, nice but no nicer than any other little historic town. The walls are its main claim to fame, and they make for a bit of a different experience in terms of walking along. You can circumnavigate the entire town this way, and see everything.
At the renting points, they have bicycles for 1, 2, 3 and 4.It is of great fun to ride the wall. Pick your best friends and enjoy.
