Florence is an art historian’s dream. The Galleria dell'Accademia bursts with works by Michelangelo, who is entombed within the frescoed walls of the Basilica di Santa Croce. Budding photographers can snap pics of the Ponte Vecchio bridge, and serious shoppers can spend a blissful afternoon wandering the shops of Piazza Santo Spirito. Tuscan cuisine pays homage to the region’s bounty. Swipe a hunk of crusty bread across a pool of local olive oil and you’ll be instantly transported to your happiest place.

This was our first stop after departing the train station and it was truly impressive. There is an entrance fee but it was very reasonable. The crowds head to the Duomo so we spent a significant amount of time viewing the paintings and art. The museum is small but nice. The alter is incredible. They have some restoration underway and it appears they had already completed many areas making the pieces incredibly vivid. A place we would return as the Gothic design is incredible and the pieces are more impressive than the Duomo.
