In the newer part of the town there is one of the oldest shops where the men of Barga, down through the generations, have gathered to swop stories, exchange ideas, boast, shout, talk about politics, football, mushrooms, wild boar, the weather, sometimes even the topic of women crops up and occasionally during rare monents, they even do what they are supposed to be doing there .......getting their hair cut! Yes, we are talking about Chiappa's the barber shop.

don't wait outside, come straight in
