After dinner in one of the local restaurants, choir’s concert will take place, it will be organised at Basilica di San Martino.
Day 3: Half day tour to Pistoia, recently elected as 2017 Italian Capital of Culture. The nominee has defeated 9 other and fierce cities because of its projects qualities and developments. Halfway between Florence and Lucca, it is not as famous as other cities, but definitely worth visiting, as it treasures fascinating architectural and natural spots. What to visit?
