The main piazza in Arezzo is one of those great Tuscan spaces, with pedestrian lanes leading out from it in all directions. We'll take you on a walk along the main Corso Italia, with detours into various little side lanes, and show many of the old buildings dating back to the Middle Ages when Arezzo was a fortified town with a wall around it. Among the many attractions here there is one particular focal point, which is a series of paintings by Piero della Francesca depicting scenes of the True Cross. The historic center between the train station and Piazza Grande is just about one square kilometer, so it's really easy to see it on foot walking around for a day. You'll really enjoy this main street, Corso Italia, lined with shops, and there's apartments above, there's a few little hotels here and there, in a quiet pedestrian zone with the few little service vehicles. You'll notice a slight incline in the angle of the street as you enter the town, but Arezzo is relatively flat, not one of those steep hill towns of Tuscany. Within 10 minutes walk from the train station, you can reach the Basilica of San Francesco, perhaps the major landmark of town, because inside is that series of fresco paintings by Piero della Francesca, depicting Legends of the True Cross, a world famous collection of art. We'll take a closer look at these beautiful pieces at the end of the video. Like in many other Tuscan towns, this broad pedestrian route is the main pathway connecting the lower part of town to the historic one, more up towards the top of the hill. It's a slight uphill walk, but very nice stroll with many kinds of shops, there's restaurants, antiques and more. |
