OUR Suspension bridge, Happy birthday 100 years OLD On the road that leads to Abetone, there is the oldest and longest pedestrian suspension bridge in the world. It was built for the interest of Vincenzo Douglas Scotti, with the idea of ​​facilitating the connection between Popiglio and the METAL FACTORIES Works begun way back in 1920 and completed in 1923. In 1990 it was included in the Guinness Book of Records which listed it as "the longest pedestrian suspension bridge in the world". Since 2006 this title has been to the Kokonoe Yume Bridge in Japan.

 MONTECATINI TERME In a Tuscan holiday a day in Montecatini should not be missed.

You can reach the valley in 10 minutes with a splendid panorama. I was lucky as there was a street artists festival and the violinist played for us. The jewel of montecationi is also the THERMAL PARK. Inside you will find the Ancient Terme di TETTUCCIO with large spaces decorated by famous nineteenth-century artists. You can also enjoy an excellent aperitif here.
