A few kilometers from Florence, you can find the multiethnic Prato, a vibrant town that knew how to introduce contemporary elements into its historical features in order to blend traditions and modern-day life. Prato offers historical attractions such as an Etruscan path, Medici villas and contemporary museums but it's also famous for its textile industry and its fine food and wine. You can take a stroll through the streets, hopping between medieval castles, Renaissance churches and historic buildings, but also choose to explore the surrounding nature. Whether you want to take an evening walk along the River Bisenzio or get outside the medieval walls, you’ll find no shortage of outdoor activities for spending a day under the sun.
