Guys, I would like to inform you all about the beautiful festival Luminara di San Ranieri. I attenended it in 2011, I was studying in Pisa those days and the festival was a delightful experience.

At sunset, every June 16, thousands of candles previously put onto Pisa's bridges, doors and windows are lit up. They put off the electric lights. The result is absolutely breathtaking: the river Arno mirrors all these lights and the atmosphere is warm and mystical. At 11 p.m. fireworks colour the sky and surprise the hundreds of thousands of people from Pisa and all over the world walking and standing throughout the riverside.

Not sure how to post pics/links here, but you can search term 'luminara di san ranieri' on google. There are also some videos on youtube.

Hope to see you there...
