Itinerary

1. 1

   Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore

   Pass by

   The Cathedral of Florence is one of the most beautiful churches in the world! Your visit to Florence can only start with the complex of buildings that includes the Baptistery, Giotto's Bell Tower, and the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore: by themselves, these three buildings are already enough to give you a full understanding of Florence's fame as the world capital of art and beauty.

2. 2

   Ponte Vecchio

   Pass by

   Ponte Vecchio is a truly characteristic corner of Florence! This bridge is a landmark for tourists all over the world, fascinating both as an architectural structure and for the views it offers over the Arno River from the two terraces at its center.

3. 3

   Uffizi

   Pass by

   With its two million visitors per year and four hundred years of history, the Uffizi has the most admired art collection in Italy. Although a new wing has recently been inaugurated, the museum has too many works to be able to display them all! Here you'll find yourself standing before some of the most important images of Western civilization: the best of the best of Italian and European art.

4. 4

   Santa Maria Novella

   Pass by

   This complex is one of the most spectacular treasures of art in Florence! The great Dominican convent of Santa Maria Novella welcomes you upon your entrance to the western part of Florence's historic center. It is one of the city's landmarks, not only for its exceptional architectural beauty and for the masterpieces of art that it contains, but also because it gave the central train station its name: it's called "Stazione Santa Maria Novella" and it overlooks the square behind the church. When you exit the station you are standing right in front of the 300 year-old bell tower; if instead you take the pedestrian tunnel, you'll come out right at the church's side.

5. 5

   Piazzale Michelangelo

   Pass by

   This is the most beautiful panoramic spot in Florence for taking in all the beauty of the historic city lying below you along the banks of the Arno River. Carved out of the green hill overlooking the city on the left bank of the Arno, this square was built as part of the urbanization project implemented between 1865 and 1871, when Florence was the capital of Italy.

6. 6

   Piazza della Signoria

   Pass by

   Piazza della Signoria is one of the most characteristic sights in Florence! There are few cities in Italy where it is so easy to understand the separation between religious power, represented by the Cathedral, and civil power, concentrated here in Palazzo Vecchio. Repeated architectural modifications have not altered the square's solemn character, which fully conveys a sense of the city's history, art, and culture.
