About Capannori
Capannori is a large comune of about 40 hamlets, running from the Pizzorne plateau to the Pisan Mountains and covering much of the plain of Lucca. Marlia is its most populous hamlet. The homes are scattered around the area: nearly all have a garden, most have air conditioning and some have a pool. Many sleep six or more, and plenty sleep eight or more. Camellias have been grown since the late 17th century in Pieve and Sant'Andrea di Compito, known as the Borgo delle Camelie. Villa Reale di Marlia, Villa Mansi and Villa Torrigiani are among its notable Renaissance villas, and the neoclassical Nottolini Aqueduct is a local landmark. The Via Francigena passes through.
