The Luca Bell Tower is located on Via Fillungo Avenue in the center of Luca in Tuscany, Italy. The tower is Luca's tallest tower, which was acquired by the government in the 14th century and decided to house a clock in 1390. In Lucca, visitors visit the nearby Torre Guinigi, topped by a beautiful tree view. It is now also owned by Lucca. The current clock mechanism dates back to the 18th century. It is unclear how the clock face and mechanism of 1390. The early clock towers did have hour markers.

The clock tower is a famous landmark building in Lucca. It is worth your walk. I haven't come out to play for a long time. This time I have a rare opportunity. Of course, I have to feel the place I have been yearning for. The ticket is four euros per person. You can also buy a joint ticket with another tower. About a few minutes to the roof, overlooking the panoramic view of Lucca, the stairs are very narrow. Can't go up at 7 o'clock in the evening.

I also climbed the tower to overlook the city, and there was snow on the mountains in the distance. An event was held in the church of San Giovanni to commemorate Puccini, the great opera musician who was born in Lucca.

Although many churches in Lucca have high towers, the best place to overlook the city is still the clock tower in the center of the city. This 13th-century tower has 207 steps, which was repeatedly competed by Lucca's families in the Middle Ages. I had to pay 4 oden towers and I didn't go up.
