Descripción
While the calendar might be telling us that we're very close to spring, the weather begs to differ. That's probably why our minds wander beyond the equinox, towards Tuscany's favourite...
mostra másIf you listen to the entire episode you will learn how this very swanky seaside town was a non starter, surrounded by disease, treacherous swamps, pirates and brigands until Michelangelo built a road to bring his favourite marble to the sea, where it could be shipped everywhere in the world. The real changing moment was when the house of Lorraine decided to build a small fortress to protect from pirate attacks and protect the merchants that operated from there. Then, right when it was about to go bust due to the competition of bigger harbours like Genoa or Leghorn, Forte dei Marmi reinvented itself as an exclusive resort, catering to VIP, heads of industry, artists and intellectuals. The long march that brought this unassuming village from absolute obscurity to the heights of luxury and sophistication is absolutely amazing and not very well know. If you stay with us until the end, you will also learn what to do and see in this very charming, albeit a bit expensive, seaside town. If you love Italy, you can't really miss this episode!
