Lucca Comics and Games

Do you want to visit Lucca?
There are big city walls! And you can walk on them.
You really should go there in late October - early November, for the "Lucca comics, movies and games" festival!
And if you like comics and video games, don't miss the multimedia area, with a lot of TVs and statues of your favorite heroes.
Finally for the "Lucca comics" a lot of people come there from all over Italy with cosplays.
Cosplays are handmade costumes which represent manga, or movie characters, like Katniss of Hunger Games, Harry Potter, or the protagonists of some games, like Altair, Ezio Auditore, from Assassin's Creed.
And why not? There are also some vampires, werewolves, and various monsters.
I think it's so amazing, if you see it once, you wish to get back there next year!!
If you have time, after the festival you should visit the city centre, with its narrow medieval streets, into the walls of course.
There are a lot of shops, and characteristic churches and squares.
The most famous square is the "Amphitheatre square".
Have a look at the website!
