Italy has so many ornate churches. This one is particularly beautiful with its vaulted ceiling and frescoes. However, not all Italian churches are ornate.

It stands on a spectacular viewing point which offers a 360\u00b0 visual tour of Barga and its surrounding villages between the Apuan Alps and the Apennines. Our guests at Art Toscana Painting Vacations in Italy often comments on how breathtakingly beautiful it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
