One of the most beautiful piazzas in Florence. Climb up the Duomo and Giotto's Bell Tower to have incredible views of the city!
The first stone of the Duomo’s facade was laid on September 8, 1296 but the decoration you see here dates to 1871-87! For something older, turn around: the Baptistry is 11th century ;-)
The Baptistery of S. Giovanni was the core of the spiritual life from the beginning and it is still today a monument identity for the fiorentine citizens. Read more.
TheGallery hosts the famous David by Michelangelo, symbol of Florenceand of the Renaissance and some unfinished works of Michelangelo. Read more.
One of the most important museums in the world with paintings by Tuscan artists Giotto, Botticelli, Leonardo, Michelangelo, and more.
Piazza della Signoria is the central square of Florence, the seat of civil power with the Palazzo Vecchio and the heart of the city's social life. A L-shaped,
All of the suggestions are great. Try the prosciutto (ham) with crema di tartufo (truffle) and scamorza affumicata (smoked cheese). Delicious!!!!
The wonderful Boboli Gardens lie behind the Pitti Palace. The Medici Family first created it, inventing the model of the Italian garden, which was copied by many European Courts. Read more.
Dedicated to Michelangelo, it is one of the most famous places in the world, for the magnificent panoramic view of Florence! Here you will also find bronze copies of some of his works.
The garden on the side of Piazzale Michelangelo, many Italians don't even know where this is. A peaceful garden where you can relax to take in the sun and read a good book.
Great place. The food tastes really home made. (at least the beef, pasta and lasagna) Try the dolce in the end.
Florentines flock to this narrow family-run trattoria near San Lorenzo to feast on Tuscan favorites served at simple tables under a wooden ceiling dating from 1536.
We had lunch here and it was really good, 12 eur per person with antipasti, main and side, bread and water.
Best pizza in town. Calabrese, Caprese, Gustapizza & Margherita con bufala are all good.
The food and the service were excellent. The prices right on. Very good option inthe area. Will come back.
great place for breakfast/brunch, nice coffee, great smoothies, but no local feeling. not a bad thing, it's just that breakfasting isn't really an Italian thing
Nice staff, delicious food, very fast service! Pizzas are the best of the best! You can't miss this place
Great service, but don't get carried away with the recommendations. The sandwiches are enormous. Great wine and 90s glam rock soundtrack perfect for Sunday afternoon drinks.
Wow! The best restaurant in Florence or even in the world! I came following Foursquare and ordered the dish everybody recommended: raviolli al tartuffo and it was a gastronomic experience!
This is a beautiful and charming restaurant with amazing food. If you want excellent Florentine steak, this is the place to try it. The pasta with truffles was amazing. So was the cheesecake. Perfect!
the butter chicken will change your life. this place hasn't changed a lick since the 1800's...and that's a very good thing.
Went back for a pre-lunch snack. 3.50€ beef sandwich hit the spot, simply tasty. Get both pesto and spicy tomato sauce, it's not that spicy. Pay first, present ticket to man who makes it on the spot
Literally the BEST gelato in Florence! This Sicilian gem is just perfect - more "icy" and not too rich. You'll know what I mean when you try it! :)
Amazing gelato, but often insane lines. Plan on visiting during the week for shorter wait times.
Mind blowingly good. By far the best in Florence for traditional / chocolatey flavors (check out Gellateria della Passera for fruity / seasonal flavors). And .50 euro cheaper than most places to boot!
The best icecream I've had in Italy (and I have gelato several times a day ha). Fragoline di bosco, ricotta fig, banana and rice are all fantastic. I miss this place already.
The “old bridge” once housed butchers, but the Medici, who had Vasari build his famous corridor above it, complained of the smell and installed goldsmiths here.
It is on the site, first of the city's forum and then of the city's old ghetto, which was swept away during the city improvement works, when Florence was the Capital of Italy. VERY BEAUTIFUL!
Thursday night open late, Strozzina (contemporary section) free from 6-11pm! Great place not just for exhibits but to hang in the courtyard (free wifi), cafe' or bookstore.
Good choices of pizzas(rectangular). we had mozeralla with vegetables. It includes delicious sun-dried tomatoes. Small but cozy place, fine staff.
My favorite bridge, beautiful views both ways including looking at the next bridge Ponte Vecchio. Less crowded, and a great view of sunset on the water.
The sandwiches here are amazing. This is a great option if you are looking to have a cheap, quick, tasty, and "authentic" food option in Florence.
