Map of Tuscany Vacation, Travel and Hotel Information

Considering Tuscany's role in Italian culture is like assessing the great Florentine poet Dante's influence on Western literature, or the Tuscan native Leonardo da Vinci's on art and science. While each of Italy's regions has impacted and shaped Italy in some significant way, Tuscany has done so unfathomably.  Without Tuscany there would be no Italy, no Italian language, and certainly no Italian Renaissance.

As a side note, when you're sick of touring the best art museums on the Continent or are exhausted from an excess of gazing over the amazing vineyard-covered rolling Tuscan hills, you can always resort to its exquisite cuisine and a glass of its world-famous wine!
