Piazza del Duomo<\/a> is also home to the famous bell tower by Giotto<\/strong>, adjacent to the Cathedral, and built from 1334 till 1359. This 84.7-meter-high bell tower is one of the most significant testimonies of Florentine Gothic architecture of the 14th century. Covered in white, red and green marble, like the one that adorns the Cathedral, this landmark has a rectangular base and is considered the most beautiful in Italy. If you\u2019re up for going up the 414 steps, we can assure you that the outstanding view of Florence is worth the climb.  <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Uffizi Gallery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"uffizi<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Since 2014, the Uffizi Galleries<\/strong><\/a> connect three fascinating museum complexes \u2013 the Uffizi, the Giardino di Boboli and the Palazzo Pitti \u2013 through the Vasari Corridor. These three structures, together, make up the core of the art collections of the famous Medici, Habsburg Lorraine and Savoy families. The galleries are an authentic collection of treasures that range from ancient times to the 20th century. The Uffizi Gallery itself occupies the first two floors of the large palazzo on Piazzale degli Uffizi, built from 1560 to 1580, and designed by Giorgio Vasari. Its fame is renowned worldwide for its stunning antique sculpture collection and artworks that range from the Middle Ages to modern times. Among the art collection you\u2019ll find Renaissance paintings that belong to artists like Giotto, Simone Martini, Piero della Francesca, Botticelli, Leonardo, Raffaello, Michelangelo and Caravaggio, to name a few. Flemish, Dutch and German masterpieces are also present in the gallery, as well as the Italian collection of sculptures that belonged to the Medici family. Expect great temporary exhibits too. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Palazzo Pitti<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"palazzo<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Palazzo Pitti<\/a><\/strong> has been the royal palace for three dynasties\u2013the Medici\u2019s, the Habsburg Lorraine\u2019s and the Savoy\u2019s. It was first acquired by Cosimo I de\u2019Medici and his wife Eleonora di Toledo for the purpose of transforming it into a grand-ducal residence in 1550. Soon, it became the symbol of the Medici family\u2019s power in Tuscany. The palazzo still bears the name of its first owner, the famous Florentine banker Luca Pitti. Today Palazzo Pitti is home to four different museums: the Treasury of the Grand Dukes on the ground floor, the Palatine Gallery and the Imperial and Royal Apartments on the first floor, and the Gallery of Modern Art and the Museum of Costume and Fashion on the second floor.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Boboli<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Behind Palazzo Pitti you\u2019ll find the marvellous Boboli Gardens<\/strong>. Not only are these gardens known as the \u201cgreen lung of Florence<\/a>\u201d they\u2019re a true testament of Italian-style gardens and were used as inspiration to create many European Royal gardens (yes, Versailles too). The 45,000sqm gardens are an open-air museum, with ancient and Renaissance statues, fountains and centuries-old trees adorning the space. The Medici family were the first to establish the layout of the Boboli Gardens, until the Habsburg-Lorraine and Savoy dynasties later enriched the gardens, extending its borders up to Porta Romana. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bardini Gardens<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Bardini<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>While not as popular as the Boboli Gardens, trust us when we say the Bardini Gardens are a must-visit. Not only are they less crowded than the Boboli Gardens, they have a splendid panoramic view of Florence, so much so that Villa Bardini (where the gardens are located) was nicknamed Villa Belvedere. The Bardini Gardens have always belonged to rich families that have succeeded one another. They were first created as an agricultural area and were later transformed into a wonderful Italian-style garden. The garden integrates three gardens, different in style: the Italian-style garden with its stunning Baroque staircase; the English garden which represents a rare example of Anglo-Chinese landscape; and lastly the Agricultural Park where the renowned wisteria pergola is located. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Palazzo Vecchio<\/a><\/strong> is the political symbol of the city of Florence, located in Piazza della Signoria. It was the former residence of the Medici family and was also used as the city hall of Florence in later years. The original project was by Arnolfo di Cambio, who designed a fortress in 1299 that was supposed to rise over the ruins of the Ghibelline towers of the Uberti, who were defeated by the Guelph faction (and also mentioned in Dante\u2019s Divine Comedy). The name Palazzo Vecchio or \u201cold palace\u201d was given to the palazzo after Palazzo Pitti was built, which took the name \u201cpalazzo nuovo\u201d or \u201cnew palace\u201d.

Palazzo Strozzi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"palazzo<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Palazzo Strozzi<\/strong> is one of the most beautiful Renaissance buildings in Italy, born from the rivalry of the Strozzi family with other Florentine noble families, specifically with the Medici family. As you can imagine, the rich Florentine families were always in competition with one another to have the most marvellous buildings. Thanks to this rivalry we have the stunning Palazzo Strozzi which, in 2006 , became a public-private cultural foundation which organizes ancient, modern and contemporary art exhibitions. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For approximately 300 years, the Basilica of San Lorenzo<\/strong> was the Duomo of Firenze, or Cathedral of Florence, before the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore became the Duomo. It\u2019s located near the San Lorenzo Market, footsteps from Piazza del Duomo. Since it was the church of the Medici family, it has remained one of the most important religious buildings in Florence, not to mention that the basilica boasts the second largest dome in the Tuscan capital. Once there, head on over to the Cappelle Medicee, or the Medici Chapel, to have your jaw drop. This chapel is covered in marble, frescoes and statues by Michelangelo. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Everyone has heard about the iconic Ponte Vecchio, the famed bridge<\/a> that crosses the Arno River. The bridge that stood at its place was destroyed after a violent flood until in 1345 Ponte Vecchio was rebuilt. During the Second World War the German army destroyed all of Florence\u2019s bridges, except this one (although they blocked access to the bridge by destroying the two medieval constructions at its sides). Apart from its historical background, the bridge is known for its jewelry and souvenir shops built on the sides of the bridge.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
