AREZZO
Arezzo is one of the most ancient city in
Tuscany, it certainly has a lot to offer to
who visit it! Although part of the
medieval city was destroyed during the
Second World War, the center of
Arezzo preserves splendid monuments,
churches, palaces and museums. The
most important monuments of the city
are The San Francesco’s church, in this
church you can find a Piero della
Francesca’s cycle of frescoes. And then
the Medicean Fortress, the Roman
Amphitheater. The most famous and
populated square is Piazza Grande
where twice a year all the Arezzo’s
citizens gather to watch Giostra del
Saracino, one of the most important
event of the city. But in Arezzo there
are also a lot of shops and resteraunts,
the cook here is so homemade and
rustic, if you caome to Arezoo you can’t
not try the “crostini neri” or the
“fegatelli” or the “bistecca con
l’acciugata”. If you’re in Arezzo and
you’re looking for some good shops I
advise you to go to the city centre,
there there are all kinds of shops
(clothing, furniture, jewelry and
more…).

GRIFI
IN AREZZO THERE A LOT OF TYPICAL DISHES
BUT THE MOST FAMOUS ARE "GRIFI". THEESE
ARE A TRADITIONAL DISH WHO WAS EATEN
FROM THE FARMERS. THEY'RE SO TASTY AND
NUTRIOUS YOU HAVE TO TRY THEM AT LEAST
ONCE AND YOU WILL REALIZE HOW
AN APPARENTLY "UGLY" DISH CAN TURN OUT
TO BE A REAL TASTE SURPRISE!
