Piazza di Bellosguardo

A panoramic viewpoint over the city of Florence, the Bellosguardo hill can be reached on foot via a beautiful walk that climbs the hill of the same name, passing villas and picturesque views. The destination is the square, a veritable terrace offering an unusual view of Florence. A favourite spot for artists and intellectuals, Bellosguardo was frequented by Galileo Galilei, Ugo Foscolo, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Florence Nightingale, Henry James and Eugenio Montale.
