Tuscany really is impossibly beautiful. There is just so much to see and do and so much of it is made up of some of the most beautiful galleries, buildings, works of art and views in the world. Of course, there really are endless lists of excellent things to see and do so, in order to help you out, here are more of this author's picks of the most photogenic sights in Tuscany that you'll want to visit and then capture forever.
7. The Uffizi
The Uffizi is one of the leading art galleries in the world and for good reason. It is a must-see for the countless masterpieces that are housed inside of it but it is also quite the photogenic beauty in its own right. There is almost too much to see, which can lead to a bit of sensory overload. When I took a moment to just wander and not try and see everything for a second, I found myself strolling around behind my parents and I got this photograph.

It's incredibly cute and captures a moment in this stunning building that I will never forget. Just find a vacation rental in Florence and explore the gallery for yourself.
8. The Hanging Garden Of Lucca: Torre Guinigi
Another hanging garden on the list but it deserves the spot. The city of Lucca is famous for its medieval architecture and was once home to many tall towers. Of the 250 towers like this that once existed in the city, the Torre Guinigi is sadly one of the very few that still stands there today.
Built around 1384, the garden was probably added in the 14th or 15th century but certainly existed by 1600. You can now visit and climb to the top, where you can take in the amazing views over Lucca but the tower itself is equally photogenic and quite a unique feature to the city. Just find a luxury villa in Lucca and drop by!
