* market *

*restaurants!*
one of the reasons to rent a holiday accommodation is that you can cook your own food and avoid eating out You can shop at farmers' markets, try local recipes, keep your children entertained while cooking... but sometimes you just want to relax and unwind with a nice glass of wine and let others cook! among other local area information, we will give you a list of nearby restaurants (one of them is at walking distance!) we usually go to! and we will be happy to call and reserve a table for you, if you like!
*palio di fucecchio (horse race)*
every year since 1981, there is this horse race in fucecchio The town is divided into contrade (just like Siena!). You will spend your holidays at La Scuola di Furio Holiday Home, so in contrada Torre, whose colours are white and blue. It is a brilliant experience. Before THE day, there are lots of dining occasions in each contrada, sometimes al fresco, in order to spend nice time together, get to know each other and have a home style meal with some good wine. The date of the event is usually the third Sunday of May. In the morning you can attend the historical parade with its lively display of 1200 (!) persons in rich locally made costumes along the streets of Fucecchio. The 3 afternoon races take place at la Buca del Palio (Via Fratelli Rosselli in Fucecchio). Palio might last until sunset! The races only last a minute or two, so you have to spend some time in Fucecchio beforehand, soaking up the atmosphere and the rivalry between the different districts, each of which is represented in the first two races. for a fucecchiese, palio is like football world cup for italians!
*infiorata di corpus domini (flower carpets)*:
on the sunday of corpus domini the streets of historic fucecchio are covered by beautiful floral carpets In Fucecchio the custom of sprinkling the streets with flowers and forest sprigs compose sacred figures, dates back to the 30es but it was only in 1990 that the Flower Festival has become a tradition.
the carpet of flowers are displayed in the old city centre, starting from and coming back to the collegiate church The materials used are many varieties of seasonal flowers (poppies, brooms, carnations, roses ...) and many other type of natural material (grapes, coffee, wood chips ...).
