No introduction needed for one of the most popular art cities in the world. The Uffizi, Piazzale Michelangelo, the Rose Garden, the Duomo are just some of the wonders that will surprise you as you stroll through a real open-air museum.
Florence is a city renews its enchantment with every visit. It can be easily reached in less than an hour from Villa Roccia di Cerbaia even for a short one day visit. Whether you choose an open-air itinerary, a visit to the Uffizi Museum or a day of shopping among the fashion boutiques in via Tornabuoni, the time spent in this wonderful city of art will amaze you.
There are not-to-be-missed stops on a visit to Florence but even if you have just a few hours available, a single walk is still worth the visit. The city, in fact, is a real open-air museum and the spirit of the Renaissance overlooks the noble palaces and gardens that have hosted some of the most important events in history: from the Neoplatonic Academy of Lorenzo Il Magnifico to the debut of Michelangelo in the field of sculpture.
If you visit Florence for the first time we suggest you should start from the cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and then move through the narrow alleys of medieval Florence to Piazza della Signoria, then cross the Ufmfizi loggia to get to the Lungarno. From there the walk can continue to Piazzale Michelangelo and the Rose Garden or invite you to stop in the center in one of the many restaurants where you can try the delicacies of traditional Tuscan cuisine.
With a few more days at your disposal, a visit to the city's museums, among the most visited in the world, is a must: from the Uffizi to Palazzo Davanzati, the ancient palaces of Florence have preserved priceless treasures inside. Discover the breathtaking basilica of Santa Croce, where famous personalities of the arts, poetry and science such as Michelangelo, Ugo Foscolo and Galileo rest and cross the river to reach Oltrarno to visit the artisan shops of San Frediano, Palazzo Pitti and the monumental Boboli Gardens.
Do not miss the opportunity for an unforgettable stay.
