Italy Travel Video
A Morning in Lucca
Lucca is one of our favored destinations in northern Tuscany. Its intact wall has kept shoddy industrial construction out of the medieval center, and you can walk and bike on it. This video shows the things you can do on a sunny morning: Climbing an ancient tower to get the layout of medieval Lucca, then getting a special coffee drink from the evocative cafe, then having lunch at a great restaurant serving traditional food. If you want to follow this itinerary, there's even a map of it available on our site.
Another interesting time to visit Lucca is at the time of the Luminaria di Santa Croce di Lucca (Video), held on September 13th, when the entire city is lit by candelight at night.

The Video Equipment
The video camera used on these Italian travel videos is a Sony HDR-TG1 Hi-Def Handicam that slips into a pocket and has decent 5 channel audio. See my Sony Handycam HDR-TG1 Camcorder Review on Europe Travel.
