Fascinating Montecatini Terme

Montecatini Terme, the great Italian and Tuscan spa, is a landscape town, a "garden spa", with greenery blending seamlessly with urban elements and thermal structures, crowned at the top by the medieval village of Montecatini Alto, which can be reached via the historic funicular railway. Relaxing walking paths through nature, therapeutic thermal treatments, thermal buildings, shops and entertainment are just some of the main features, in a town that illustrates a Golden era, still alive within its atmosphere.
