Chiesa di San Giovanni Battista

Reviewed By HEESUN H

This church is very unique and is done by Giovanni Michelucci. The interior is great and is situated next to the highway. The church is dedicated to all the workers affected by the construction of the highway. It was a really mesmerizing experience.

Beautiful museum, very organised. They will tale you back in time by centuries as you go up the floor. It's very spacious, not crowded, well lighted, and has spectacular views of the Tuscan Mountains when you look out the windows! Definitely a must see in Prato!

Piazza del Duomo

This large city square contains the Basilica of Santa Maria del Fiore, the third largest Cathedral in the world after St. Peter's in Rome and St. Paul's in London.

Reviewed By Mark H - Winston Salem, North Carolina

An interesting walk while getting to the Duomo. The Piazza is a great walking place with plenty of shops and cafes, but the Piazza is getting crowded with immigrants selling knock offs who have become more than entrepreneurial, now they are becoming just annoying and they hurt the overall experience.

I Gigli

Reviewed By Jayanath - Colombo, Sri Lanka

I left here here at 7.00 at night and found there are almost no buses for going back to my hotel near Florence station, at night. After 2 hours waiting a bus came and it terminated after going 3-4 km. there we waited another 01 hour for a bus and it also transferred us to another one at 11.30 at night to reach Florence. 10 km journey therefore took 4 and half hours to reach town from here. Do not rely on public buses at night.

Admittance to the Cathedral is free but you need to get a ticket at the duomo museo to see the frescoes. Also the frescoes are not open all the time. For instance today (Sunday) they didnt open until 3pm. Some fabulous sculptures/architecture in any case.

Museo Comunale del Figurino Storico

Reviewed By Eric D - Vercorin

The village of Calenzano Alto is truly picturesque, still surrounded by medieval walls, quiet, tiny and neat. You can walk in ten minutes from the parking outside the walls through the entire village. If you're interested in tin soldiers and history, there is this cute private museum (free of charge) next to one of the towers on what must be "main street" devoted to tin soldiers of all sizes (some really tiny) depicting battle dresses and gear going all the way back to the Etruscans. One room is devoted to WWII with some original weaponry and uniforms, also some battlefield reliques from WWI, and incredibly well reproduced soldiers' attire on the tiny tin critters. Having had tin soldiers myself about 70 years ago, I suddenly felt so much younger...

Beautiful park in a little city near Florence. If you want to find a smaller experience outside of Florence, Prato will be a good choice. There are beautiful Fountains, the churches, lots of Gardens in the parks. Very relaxing passeggiata opportunity.

Piazza della Signoria

Since its beginning during the Middle Ages, the Piazza della Signoria has been the political heart of the city.

Reviewed By ldjs - Fort Lee, New Jersey

Amazing piazza with Palazzo Vecchio and Uffizi and the beautiful lodge with amazing works of arts: original statues by Cellini and other masters in marble and bronze. The copy of David is in front of Palazzo. There is a lot of interesting history like secret passage from Palazzo to Pitti palace, there is a marked spot where Savonarola was burned and lots of other interesting facts and monuments. Most importantly, a gorgeous square.
