San Miniato




A fun little excursion is a hike to San Miniato. The large Romaneque church sits on top of a hill across the river from the city center, providing a beautiful panoramic of the city. Partway up the hill is Piazza Michelangelo, which offers a lovely lookout point. The church itself is very pretty, but my favorite part to visit is the graveyard. There are all sorts of elaborate monuments, tombstones, and mausoleums. Plus, it's a lovely walk up.
