Florence is steeped in history, wonderful architecture and art.
The beautiful city of Florence is the birthplace of the Renaissance and the capital of Tuscany. The beautiful narrow cobbled streets are a joy to walk along with plenty of places to stop and eat while passing the day people watching.
There are three Michelangelo’s David’s situated around the city, one is in the Piazza della Signoria which was the original position of this status and there is another at the Piazzale Michelangelo but the real ‘David’ is now in the Galleria dell’Accademia.
Just around the corner from the Uffizi along the bank of the Arno is a small museum dedicated to Galileo which is a great place to visit with some interesting artefacts.
