Description
Viareggio is known, as well as home seaside tourism, for the Carnival, founded in 1873, with its majestic papier-mâché floats that parade along the "promenade". The official mask of the Carnival of Viareggio is Burlamacco, invented in 1930 by Uberto Bonetti. During the event, of great importance, there are also side neighborhood festivals that take place usually from Friday to Sunday.
From an artistic point of view, Viareggio is known for eclectic, nouveau and deco and for being the city of artists like Lorenzo Viani, Uberto Bonetti, Alfredo Catarsini, Renato Santini, Mario Marcucci, Inachus Biancalana, Galileo Chini and Alfredo Belluomini.
The city is an industrial center and craft, especially in shipbuilding, long known around the world. It is also known for fishing and floriculture.
Viareggio is home to many events and awards including the Premio Viareggio literary Repaci, established in 1929, the Premio Viareggio Sport was established in 1985 and World Cup tournament in Viareggio Carnival, founded in 1949.
Viareggio is also known in the historical-religious, among the most significant events of St. Anthony Mary Pucci and Clelia Merloni.

Somptueuse photographie avec ce "vague à l'âme" qui nous balotte, telle cette barque ; sur le flan de la plage, deux, trois pêcheurs goutant l'instant présent ; au loin, plus loin là-bas quelques voiliers attendent de prendre le large...

This is wonderful, Mario! Beautiful color and lighting! I love the clouds, which seem not to be sure whether to rise into the sky or hug the shore. I've always liked the combination of brown tones and turquoise. The turquoise accents in the buildings and the sky look beautiful against the brown tones. I love the boats in the distance , and the small boat in the foreground, that looks like it might soon become part of the sea. The water is gorgeous, like a living thing lapping against the shore! Excellent image! Very interesting information! What a wonderful place to visit! Questo è meraviglioso, Mario! Bello il colore e l'illuminazione! Amo le nuvole, che non sembrano essere sicuri che a salire in cielo o un abbraccio la riva. Mi è sempre piaciuta la combinazione di tonalità marrone e turchese. Gli accenti turchese negli edifici e il cielo apparire belli contro i toni del marrone. Io amo le barche in lontananza, e la piccola barca in primo piano, che sembra potrebbe presto diventare parte del mare. L'acqua è splendida, come una cosa viva che lambisce la spiaggia! Di immagine eccezionale! Informazioni molto interessanti! Che posto meraviglioso da visitare! Buona giornata
