Lucca — bike the walls

The Renaissance city walls are 4.2 kilometers of intact rampart with trees planted on top — you rent a bike at the gate and cycle the full circuit in forty minutes. Below: medieval towers, Roman amphitheatre outline, churches with Romanesque facades. Lunch at Buca di Sant'Antonio (open since 1782). Back by 5. Entirely underrated as a day trip.
