The Guinigi Tower, a distinctive symbol of Lucca, stands out with its ancient stone and brick façade topped by a hanging garden of holm oaks, a rarity among Italian medieval towers. Climbing its 230 steps rewards you with panoramic views of Lucca's terracotta rooftops, historic sites, and surrounding countryside. Ideal for photo-travelers, the tower offers a unique vantage point both from its base, emphasizing its height against Lucca's skyline, and its summit, for capturing the city's essence. The best light for photography is during the golden hour, when the soft light enhances the textures and colors of the landscape and the tower itself.
