Fiesole

Next morning after a leisurely breakfast we climbed on the bus again and were driven up into the picturesque scenic heights to Fiesole 8 km out of Florence.
The town history goes back to the 8th and 9th centuries BC, when the Romans were in residence.
We spent two hours walking round an open museum the sight of a major archilogical dig uncovering Roman ruins.We were informed as we went along by an interactive tablet we carried with us.Beyond the town we were treated to wonderful vistas.
We left Florence in the afternoon in the direction of France.
