The art and culture of millenarian times in one place

firenze is superb! You really have to visit it once in your life. All the art and the little streets, just marvellous!

The best views of the city are to be had from the Boboli gardens. Spend at least a half a day here to enjoy the views. Don't miss the rose garden. The views from the top of the Duomo are also well worth the steps.

Firenze has many amazing views but if you want a really good view and are willing to get out of breath on the climb go to the Cathedral Bell Tower. Its amazing!

Firenze, it's amazing museums during the day, and such an exciting nightlife! Just hang around on the plaza's and find some people making music, they'll probably show you the clubs to go! For the museums, buy your tickets a couple days before going, you'll get inside quicker! Otherwise, be patient!

One of the most beautiful places i went to, and i want to go back there. The shopping is fantastic as is the lovely architecture. You can get your caricature drawn by one of the many artists along the street, take photos of 'David', and also walk the infamous bridge laden with shops of gold - once the shops of butchers meat!! There are many designer stores and many crepe stands, but don't forget to leave without picking up a real piece of genuine leather garment from florence! Don't miss also the 'Space Discoteca' night club!! Don't worry if you hurt yourself in Florence, hospital help is great in florence (if you can speak italian- although all doctors speak english)

Not a bad thing to be said, get out walk up down the river on both banks. Fiesole to the north, no 7 bus from the train station is fab with breathtaking views of Florence Piazzale Michelangelo to the south. Brilliant. Go to a restaurant I Quattro Leoni, go over Ponte Vecchio, turn right, is up a laneway off Borgo san Jacopo I think turn up at another restaurant Mama's. Best steak order the veg loads of house red wine €8/l

If you can afford it, try and stay on an upper floor of one of the better hotels...that way you'll get to look over the old city and marvel at Renaissance architecture...

FIRENZE IS THE ITALIAN FOR FLORENCE !

Florence is a magical place.
Don't go with any preconceptions about what you'll experience there, and really take the time to experience the art and history florence has to offer - it's enlightening.
