Larry and I had read that the largest antiques market in Tuscany takes place in nearby Arezzo on the first weekend of each month – of course we had to be there to experience for ourselves. We set out one afternoon for the 45 minute drive north to check it out, and then spent at least another 45 minutes looking for a parking place. The antiques market attracts over 500 vendors and over 20,000 visitors so you can understand the challenge. Arezzo is a beautiful town, with one particularly stunning main piazza. We had a great time walking down the streets and through the stalls – they had everything from jewelry to china to silver to furniture to maps to cashmere sweaters.
