You would like to think that the Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Lorenzini (better known as Carlo Collodi) would be as well known as it is without the Disney film, but inevitably that film is the most common first contact with the child-view world of man-eating whales and expanding noses. The second could be a visit to the town from which the author took his name, Collodi in the Northern Tuscany.

The town itself sits on a steep ridge rising behind the Villa Garzoni, an 18th Century palace itself well worth visiting for its sculpture garden, but the reason for taking the kids there is the theme park. It’s not Alton Towers with terrifying rides and long queues, but rather a gentle evocation of Carlo Collodi’s childhood which inspired the book. It started in 1956 with the unveiling of Emilio Greco’s statue “Pinocchio and the Fairy” and Venturini’s “Square of the Mosaics”, joint winners of a competition to inaugurate the park.

Since then 21 other sculptures have been added as well as a restaurant. There are activities for the children and a collection of historic merry-go-rounds which the little ones will really love.

The place is a great day out, but also a gateway to one of the less-frequented areas of Tuscany, the Garfagnana. Often said to be the region’s wettest area, the vegetation is lusher than usual, with wooded hills and valleys. Try Barga, for instance. It’ll be cooler up there than in Florence, Lucca and the Arno Valley. If you need somewhere to stay, here’s a selection of Tuscany Villa Rental and Florence Apartmet Rental in the Lucca area.
