Once upon a time. . . there was an enchanted place of a timeless world, a magical land called Tuscany.

As scenery hatched by superior minds, blue sea and beautiful islands. Undisputed queen Fabricia, Elbe Island today, the one chosen by Jason and the Argonauts searching the Golden Fleece, for stop and resting. Porto Argo, Cosmopoli, Portoferraio: from a fisherman village to the capital of the Napoleon's ephemeral empire
