Cities in Tuscany are famous for many reasons: amazing monuments, art treasures in their museums to the incredible wine and food. A town in the North has risen to fame for something different: a rock that has become synonymous with luxury - white marble. Carrara has a lot more to offer than the famous quarries, starting from its fearsome reputation as a hotbed for civil dissent. Anarchists have always dominated the social landscape and are very well present today in town. The mountains above Carrara have also produced many legends and myths, from the famous seer that predicted the rise of Julius Caesar to the siren that was turned into a statue after leaving him behind when he was old and grey. Follow us in our tour of Carrara, from the "most anarchic" bar in the world to a very special museum dedicated to everything marble. It may not be on the front page of any travel guide but if you give it a chance, Carrara and its mountains will find a special place in your heart. If you have any question on everything Tuscany, don't keep it for yourself - we're more than happy to help! It's very easy to get in touch: just drop us a message on our social media accounts or an email. Every feedback is greatly appreciated as always!
