A stroll in the centre, through the beautiful streets, enjoying an ice cream amidst the scent of pine trees, and then a visit to the Civic Museums at Villa Paolina, the Maritime Museum, or Villa Borbone along the avenue of linden trees, will provide you with good humour as well as insight.
When you think of Viareggio, its Carnival immediately comes to mind: with ancient origins dating back to 1873, the Carnival in Viareggio is a set of colourful papier-mâché floats parading along the seaside boulevards. During this period, there is an air of festivity and merriment in the streets of the town. Tourists are delighted at the sight of the large papier-mâché floats and the choreography of the figures that entertain and amuse young and old alike. A feast full of music, tasty food and masks!
