Montecatini Terme is heaven for those who love spa treatments! The curative powers of the hot springs and steaming vaporous caverns of the Valdinevole have been renowned for centuries. The Parco dei Termi, a long park of neoclassical temples expanding over the sources of various underground hot springs, is the ideal place for relaxation. Here you will find Terme Tettuccio, a historic spa famous for its thermal waters. It's a lavish Liberty-style building constructed in the latter part of the 18th century by Leopold of Habsburg, the Grand Duke of Tuscany. He also had two other spas built, the Regina and the Leopoldine, and the three spas made this area famous all over Europe, boasting their obvious riches and royalty.

Explore the Piazza Giusti, an ancient sanctuary with its original stone flooring and noble coat of arms; the Parlascio, a historic site of public markets and assemblies; see the town center's historic fountains, as well as the Roman Church of Saint Peter with its gorgeous paintings spanning through several historical ages; walk the town's main street of Viale Verdi; visit the Hamlet of Montecatini Alto with ancient castles, churches and towers atop an enchanting hill, and so much more.
