Rest day at Lucca, Italy ... Via Francigena
Walked all around the walled in old town. Climbed up the bell tower of St Martin Cathedral. I did not take any photos up there, because the top was covered in wire mesh. I could see all the many towers of the town. I have some photos of inside the cathedral.

Then I headed over to Torre Guinigi. It is open at the top and some great views. There are trees up there.

After that, I went to Torre Delle Ore. I did not go up that one.

So much to see in Lucca. I headed back to see the Chiesa di San Michele in Foro.

Spent much time wondering around. One last place I wanted to see was Giacomo Puccini’s place.
