Livorno, an Italian port city on the west coast of Tuscany, is a contrast of old and new. It has been called the “Tuscan Venice” because of the Fossi Medicei canals of the Venezia Nuova quarter. Many people pass through Livorno on their way to Pisa, but Livorno is a destination in its own right. The city is known for its seafood considered the best on the Tyrrhenian coast, Renaissance-era fortifications, its modern harbour, and the Terrazza Mascagni, a waterside promenade with checkerboard paving which is the city’s main gathering place. As Livorno has historically been a port city, it has always been a crossroads and therefore a melting pot of multi-ethnic influences. There are many fortifications, museums, churches to explore in the city. An easy train trip from Florence, Pisa and Rome, Livorno makes a worthwhile stop on any Tuscan itinerary.

Livorno the Venice of Tuscany
Florence and Rome Livorno are located on the Tyrrhenian coast, an easy train ride from Pisa. Once an important Renaissance city, it still has the Renaissance era fortresses, towers, and walls waiting to be explored. The city is famous for the Fossi Medicei canals in the Venezia Nuova quarter. It also has some of the best seafood on the coast and a modern harbour. The poplar Terrazza Mascagni, a waterside promenade with checkerboard paving, is a popular gathering place for locals and tourists alike. Some people may just pass through Livorno on their way to Pisa or other Tuscan cities, but Livorno is worth stopping and savouring the multicultural influence that has shaped the city for centuries due to its proximity to the coast.
