For Art lovers, coming to Italy is available a vast heritage that
would require an unimaginable amount of time to be visited, the dream
of those who love the artistic beauty.
There is a city that can fulfill the dream of many art lovers from around the world, this is Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, one of the most important capitals of the world. Florence is the place that has the highest density of works of art of inestimable value compared to the limited extent that distinguishes this famous city of Tuscany.
Florence is a dream of art that develops in the streets and squares of the old town, surrounded by ancient walls that have protected this fantastic city in the past, its artistic heritage. Unesco also recognized the Florence city centre as World Heritage Site.
Arriving to Florence many visitors begin this dream starting from its most majestic cathedral, the basilica of Santa Maria del Fiore, better known as the Duomo.
This monument consists of majestic architectural works, each of which is a masterpiece. The Cathedral, the Baptistery, Brunelleschi's Dome, Giotto's bell tower, the museum of the Duomo are all works that together compose the monumental complex of the Cathedral, a sort of world apart situated in the centre of Florence.
Visiting this place is a unique experience that elevates the artistic sensibility beyond human understanding; the panoramic view of the city from the dome of the Duomo is one of the iconic images of this monumental complex, that represents the magnitude of the role that Florence covered in the past.
But the dream of art that Florence offers visitors is just beginning, continuing from the Duomo in the direction of the River Arno we arrive in Piazza della Signoria, which has always been the political center. Piazza della Signoria Palazzo Vecchio over yet now the town we can admire the fourteenth-century Loggia dei Lanzi, the Fountain of Neptune, and a copy of the famous David of Michelangelo.
On one side of Palazzo Vecchio is the majestic Uffizi Gallery, now one of the most important and visited museums in the world. In the Uffizi are works by Botticelli, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and many other great artists of the past.
From the Uffizi a unique architectural work, the Vasari Corridor, departs towards Palazzo Pitti. Designed by Vasari on the request of the Medici in the mid-sixteenth century, this hall was built to enable the rulers of the time to have an internal and protected passageway between Palazzo Vecchio and Palazzo Pitti.
Continuing from the gallery of Uffizi, along the bank of the Arno, we reach the Ponte Vecchio. This bridge has a particular history, since it is the only historic bridge, which has survived floods, wars and many vicissitudes.
