Florence is a city that should be discovered on foot. In order to cut down on the city centre congestion, major sites are closed to car traffic (Santa Maria Novella and Duomo). Many of the major exhibits are in the outlying areas like Bagno a Ripoli, Fiescole, Figline and Scandicci. This has allowed visitors to discover less explored areas. Be sure to enjoy the Renaissance era through the beauty of the cathedrals, churches, museums, paintings, sculptures and frescoes of Florence.
Not to be missed during your visit: Piazza del Duomo, the Uffizi Gallery, Palazzo Vecchio, Museo del Bargello, Chiesa di San Loreno and the Medici tombs, Galleria Palantina in the Palazzo Pitti, Museo di San Marco, and Frescoes by Ghirlandaio in Chiesa di Santa Maria Novella.
