Pizzeria Focacceria da Fabio is 10 m away, Pop Caffè Lucca is 40 m away, and Parco Fluviale del Serchio is 350 m away. Parco delle Mura Urbane is 400 m away. The riverside park follows the Serchio, while Parco delle Mura Urbane borders the old centre, so the immediate surroundings include both riverside paths and urban green space.
