Lucignano is a charming small town of
Val di Chiana, near Arezzo . Each year, the last two Sundays of May, there is the traditional spring festival, the

Porta San Giovanni, Porta San Giusto
,
Way of Love. The last Sunday of May (where the event takes its name) is declared the winner in the district which is the scope
"Grifo d'Oro" . The floats are stripped from the flowers that are launched from the neighborhood, creating a unique
"battle of flowers" .
