Description
Fiesole is a town in the province of Florence, famous for its dominant position from which you can see a splendid view over the valley of Florence. For this reason many rich people buy a home in this area, which became one of the more elite residential areas of the city. The archaeological area of Fiesole, very pleasant to visit, has unearthed the remains of ancient Etruscan civilization, established on these hills since the third century B.C.
