With your back to the sea, the scenery immediately offers you a completely opposite emotion: majestic peaks with “alpine” shapes and white slopes that appear to be covered in snow.
They are our Apuan Alps, which frame the coast and are rich with this “white gold” or, more specifically, marble, among the finest in the world.
It’s here that Michelangelo found the blocks he used to create his unparalleled works.
The quarries, the extraction area and several picturesque locations like Colonnata and Fanti Scritti can be reached in 40 minutes by car, for an exciting experience and a landscape unique in the world.
