Tuscany through my eyes: Week 31
Il Gioco del Ponte, the battle of the bridge, closes the celebrations of the Pisan June or Giugno Pisano.
Il Gioco del Ponte, the battle of the bridge, closes the celebrations of the Pisan June or Giugno Pisano.
Every city has its special day on which the various neighbourhoods battle it out to be the best in town: well Pisans are especially competitive so they have two: Regatta of San Ranieri and Gioco del Ponte.
June is the best time of the year to visit Pisa, because all the major events are concentrated in this month. Luminara di San Ranieri is a must-see.
This blog is written by a born and bred Tuscan who wishes to share her love for this region with as many people as possible. It's about living here, but also about travelling, learning, experiencing, and enjoying life in Tuscany.
It's about feeling at home in Tuscany.
A wonderful opportunity for the independent traveller seeking privacy and a pleasant atmosphere
