Florence's reputation for culture and art is second to none and it is true that for the first-time visitor the city's cultural heritage is breathtaking. However, the city doesn't just live on its past. You can also sample its regional delicacies, the local wine and see some of the best of current Italian design. Focussing on the limited amount of time available, 'A Great Weekend in Florence' highlights suggestions for the most entertaining and interesting ways of getting to know the city in just a few days.
Divided into 3 major parts, the first explores the city's life and character through its culture and lifestyle, and the second contains an area by area guide to the most interesting parts of the city and the third is a comprehensive and detailed shopping guide organised according to category of interest. Full addresses and opening times, plus descriptions accompany each recommended, hotel, restaurant, place of interest and shopping venue. This guide is extremely easy to use with information accessible at a glance. There is also practical information on getting there, local transport, managing the currency and a glossary of useful words and phrases. Finally, there are recommended addresses for the night owls wishing to party until the wee small hours and an additional 16 pages of extra hotel and restaurant addresses for those who wish to stay slightly longer.
