Every September, Pilsen is invaded by visitors that do not only aspire to see the city but also join this wonderful festival, as its programme features a selection of most significant plays written and played by both domestic and foreign productions. Try to take this happening into account, when planning your stay, and you will experience the city in an even better way.

Located between Punta Rasa and Punta Caimanera, this tiny beach is a great place to get away from it all, precisely because it is so small. Besides being cosy, the Playa Las Conchas is also incredibly scenic and rarely crowded. Very nearby is the Talasotherapy Centre, where you can get all kinds of spa treatments to improve your health.

The picturesque regional park covers over 23,000 hectares along the coast from Viareggio to Livorno. The grounds feature estates and historic buildings and forested walking trails. You will come across organic farms, apiaries, an archeological area, the Navicelli canal and multiple natural reserves with distinct natural environments. Of course, there is a beach area to swim and cool down after a hike. You can find handy booklets and brochures at the Visitor Centre of Cascine Vecchie. The official website has an exhaustive list of attractions and their opening hours, plus a list of official guides.

Pilsen Christmas Market boasts a romantic atmosphere filled with the smell of mulled wine, and freshly baked sweets and other treats, and as completed by an interesting cultural programme, it is the place to be during Christmas time. During the period of advent, you can join guided tours of the historical city centre, before heading back to the market for warming up with punch.
