The wealth of art and culture in the capital of Tuscany is truly exceptional. A city that was the cradle of the Renaissance, one of the most important cultural movements in human history. For many, the most beautiful city in the world.
The cradle of art and architecture
Start your visit to Florence at its heart: the historic centre, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The central square, the Piazza del Duomo, is home to the stunning Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and Brunelleschi's dome, symbols of the city. We recommend you then cross the Ponte Vecchio and enjoy an ice cream from one of the artisan ice-cream parlours along the way. In the Piazzale Michelangelo take a panoramic photo worthy of a postcard. And if you like art, don't miss the Accademia or the Uffizi, with works by the most renowned Renaissance artists, such as David by Michelangelo or The Birth of Venus.
