| Chimera in Porta Laurentina, Arezzo |
Arezzo was then one of the major Etruscan cities, At this period belong works of art of exceptional value, such as the Chimera, now preserved in Florence.
The heart of Arezzo is Piazza Grande, also known as Piazza Vasari; very likely it rises in the area where was the Roman forum.
It is developed in a trapezoidal shape and has a surface very inclined.
Among the events taking place in the Piazza Grande, please note the Giostra del Saracino.

The Giostra recalls the story of the medieval city, with a competition between riders gallop and a historical parade consisting of three hundred and flag weavers.

I also suggest to seeking antiques: Tuscany is very rich of them!
Each month in Piazza Grande there is an exibition of Antiques, where collectors from all over Italy come together.
