Trees and music. Summer events at the Botanical Garden of Lucca.

On a May night trees are said to sing, in all the forests of the world, for those who are sensitive enough to listen. On that night Stradivari cut the woods for his violins and we all know how it turned out!
The Botanical Garden of Lucca dedicates classical and non-classical concerts to the trees of the arboretum on summer evenings. "The singing of trees" is a small festival of concerts of various kinds. A "listening path" made up of small events preceded by a short introduction.

Live like a local, feel like a tourist: the invitation gather together tourists looking for life experiences in the area and locals who want to feel like tourists at home in this particular moment, taking part in guided tours to fantastic and unknown places, right behind the corner of their homes and discover the landscape, naturalistic and architectural beauties in a new way.

The museums of Lucca invite you to join the online events in live-streaming and the video meetings in occasion of the International museum day.

The theme of the 2020 edition is Museums for Equality: diversity and inclusion, which focuses on the social role of cultural Institutes, their potential in being agents of change, carrying out actions to encourage the participation of all people.

Christmas with your family and Easter with whoever you want, says an Italian proverb, but this year it will be a very special Easter to spend at home, just with some family members.

Some suggestions for the holidays, for the Easter menu in the company of the best specialties of Lucca's local cuisine directly to your home and with many suggestions for a "virtual" excursion on Easter Monday, with exhibitions and sofa activities.

We know, this is not the right time for suitcases, trains and planes, the choice between a hotel or a B&B, but nothing prevents us from "traveling" together, while staying at home.

There are many great little things still to be discovered ... comfortably seated on your sofa.

On this page we will try to report the initiatives that from the buildings and streets of the city have moved  ... online. Events that now make us all citizens of the world and tourists at home.

Dear #touristsfromhome, get a seat and enjoy!
