In late spring Granaiola looked gorgeously green.
Grape vines were growing well.
Gardens were flourishing.
The renovator’s delight I photographed a while ago is still there.
The surrounding mountains and villages shone in the sun.
Ponte a Serraglio lies in the valley below.
In the distance you can see Pieve di Monti di Villa, Monte di Villa and Riolo.
Pieve di Monti di Villa.
Monti di Villa.
Riolo.
If you look really carefully through the trees you can see Bugnano, the abandoned village.
Biribisso is a great restaurant in Granaiola…must go back soon.
…gorgeous Graniaola.
Bella Bagni di Lucca 
Beautiful time of the year….lush green and the flowers are in bloom. I love it!
It was a beautiful day on the day I visited. Spring this year was excellent.
How green is that valley?!
It is gorgeous isn’t it?
OMG! such a pretty place. and the green is a treat 🙂
The mountain villages in Bagni di Lucca look especially wonderful in spring.
Yes. Gorgeous Green Granaiola
It always looks great from my balcony.
I have no doubt. It is such a divine place
My favourite village in the whole of Italy – I would say that though wouldn’t I ?!
I’m so lucky that Granaiola is my second home. Next time we’re in Bagni di Lucca at the same time, you must come up for aperitivo! x
I would love to do that. I love Granaiola too, almost as much as Ponte a Serraglio.
ps, you managed to get a little shot of the side of my house!! Lisa x
With the view, air, and location … I though this was Nirvana!
Cracking photographs (again!). Another beautiful village which I must go and see this summer. Is’nt there a good restaurant there too – Il Biribisso?
Il Biribisso is the last photo in the post. I have had some great meals there.
It is easy to reckon why our area is called “Toscana Verde”
Looks so very pretty! Would love to visit again
