A trip to Italy<\/a> would be incomplete without a deep dive into the endless delights of Tuscany. This expanse of rolling hills, ancient towns and natural wonders has inspired artists since the Renaissance. There’s little wonder about why millions of travellers flock to this lush region each year. Wine enthusiasts might already be familiar with Tuscany’s most famous export, Chianti wine. So in honour of National Chianti Day, we’re raising a glass to all things Tuscan with this curated guide to the best things to see in Tuscany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drink Chianti<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Hilltop<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Chianti region of Tuscany is the birthplace of one of Italy’s many gifts to the world, Chianti wine. This savoury wine is as much a staple of local cuisine as olive oil and bread. Hence, this wine is not only the best of Tuscany but also the best of Italy. To experience premium Chianti, a tour across the region’s many premium vineyards is essential. The Chianti blend consists of Sangiovese grapes, which creates the wine’s rich hue and tart flavour. To best enjoy the visceral taste of Chianti, pair with a platter of antipasto or alongside an overflowing bowl of pasta pomodoro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hunt for truffles in San Miniato<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Worth more than their weight in gold, the truffles in San Miniato are some of the best in the world. There is an art form to harvesting these perfumed fungi since traditional agricultural methods can’t cultivate them. With a local guide, a day spent scouring the Tuscan countryside for truffles is one of the best things to do in Tuscany. After a hard day’s hunting, travellers can enjoy a plate of creamy fettuccine, luxuriously topped with shavings of white truffle.<\/p>\n

Climb the Leaning Tower of Pisa<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Snapping a cheesy photo pretending to hold up the Leaning Tower is requisite when visiting Pisa. The tower has leaned since its construction in the 12th century due to the soft ground beneath. At present, this lopsided monument teeters at a dizzying 4 degrees. A climb to the top of this bell tower is one of the best things to do in Tuscany. Here travellers will find 360-degree views over the Square of Miracles and the tiled roofs of Pisa below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
