    Best view of the city, wouldn’t bother about Boboli gardens as the view from the Michel Angelo plaza is crazy good. Didn’t get there for the sunrise or sunset but put it on your list.

    On our family walking tour around Florence, we eventually hit upon the Piazza Duomo which includes the iconic Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore. On the day we visited it was very hot and we had two dogs in tow. So we decided to simply walk around the cathedral to marvel at its grandeur, desperately trying to keep to the shadows to avoid the heated concrete burning the feet of our canine companions.

    It was a busy mid week day and there were many tourists like us here. Judging by the queues it looked like getting in would come with a long wait. But never mind, we can, at least say that we enjoyed this chance to appreciate such an historic and iconic building.

    So glad we got to experience this. Didn’t appreciate how colossal Michelango’s David truly is. Well worth the visit as so much to appreciate

    The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fuore in Florence is said according to the Florentine guide books to be the third largest cathedral in the world. This is a distinction it shares according to the Milanese guide books with Milan’s Duomo.

    We more or less stumbled on this beautiful square on our private, family discovery tour of Florence. We spent most of the day just following our noses around - no guide books, tour operators or anything fancy. Just Google maps and my good nose for directioning :-)

    But I digress. The Piazza della Signoria is a wonderful place featuring a host of world class marble statues, including a convenient replica of Michelangelo's David and some rather gruesome images of Perseus and Hercules inflicting some mythical savagery. There is also a statue depicting the Rape of the Sabine Women by Giambologna. Hmm...

    Neptune is also here in a rather aptly constructed fountain to make him feel at home. The surrounding architecture is stunning as well.

    There are also plenty of bars, gelaterias and restaurants here making it a really wonderful place to spend quality time. Oh, and all the artwork is free of charge to marvel at.

    It's a popular place, certainly on the hot August day when we were there. I found that the best way to navigate through all the people was to just keep your head down and walk slowly but with purpose. No entrance fees or long queues here, by the way!

    We were very lucky that our hotel was close to the bridge. It was about ten minutes and it was a lovely walk. But, the bridge was very busy.
    It was full of jewellery vendors on the bridge. I was unsure what to expect but not just that!
    We were too busy dodging passer by to notice what else was around!
    It was very busy stretch of about 300 yards but the structure was impressive and beautiful.
    The buildings on the bridge were as I have seen in movies.
    It was incredible seeing it in person but it was ashamed that we didn’t really had the opportunity to fully appreciate its architecture..

    Lots to see and lots of stairs to climb but worth a visit. You can go inside the first floor without paying but we decided to pay to see more.

    The Campanile is a very wonderful attraction in Florence. This is my second time that I climbed this campanile. Once again, it was filled with crowds, even though we booked the trip for first thing in the morning. The climb is a bit difficult but at the end very worth it. Highly recommended for tourist who enjoy history and beautiful views. I strongly recommend that you book for first thing in the morning as queues are then very long during peak season.

    We reserved entrance and arrived 845am. With electronic tickets downloaded to my cell phone there was no need to go to the ticketing office. Note that if you reserve but don’t have your tickets with codes (QR & bar code) saved to your phone or printed on paper, then you must wait in ticketing line. Was great to be so early as there were few visitors. A number of rooms and exhibits were closed but there was still much to see. Sadly this has been a very hot spell in Florence. Some rooms had okay air conditioning and my kids could cool off by standing close to the units for a few minutes (the staff sit right beside the AC floor units all day!). But many rooms had no AC or so little that it felt like nothing. And the common areas such as corridors and stairwells without exhibits had no AC were almost unbearably hot. At 9am. For context: we are not people who like really cold buildings, we don’t have AC in our home. So in sum I’d recommend in hot months to go early morning with reservations.

    It was quite a walk uphill to this place, which offered a lovely view of Florence. It took an hour the long way round following the road! But there was a more scenic walkway which we didn’t see during the climb. It was exhausting and hot, so please be prepared. At time some areas were stepper but it was a great exercise.
    We did the trip on Sunday which was not too busy as residents were in the basilica (church).
    I was particularly sweaty after the climb and the toilet at the viewpoint required coin payment.
    The graveyard area was pleasant to explore and culturally really pleasant and peaceful.
    There was cab and golf buggy ride to the top if walking is not your thing.
    Try it for yourself.

    We queued for around 45 mins to get in to the church for free. It was well worth it! There are side entrances with much shorter queues for those that have paid for to climb the dome or bell tower so make sure you get into the right one!

    The Historic Centre of Florence is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site (1982). It straddles the Arno River and includes numerous public squares and cobblestone streets lined with historic palaces, churches, museums, loggias filled with sculptures as well as hotels, retail shops and endless places to have a coffee, cornetto, gelato, panini or enjoyable sit down meal. Visitors can spend several days enjoying the beautiful Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings and architecture as well as the world class art and sculpture viewing opportunities along with great food and wine in Florence.

    Of Europes many popular sightseeing cities, Florence has to be up there with the very best when it comes to beauty and volume of things to do, see and taste. Given it's proximity to Rome and other Italian gems, makes it particularly convenient to include for holiday making in Italy. While some just pass through for a night or two, it would be best to allow 3-4 nights if at all possible. By then, most will have had their fill and be ready to move on. Yet, Florence and Renaissance enthusiasts will easily find stays of up to a week or more reasonable as well. We have been fortunate to have been able to make a handful of 4 night stays in the city over the years and have never managed to complete our sightseeing or dining bucket lists during these visits, always leaving quite a few places for future trips.

    I'd been to Florence many times before, but never knew this museum existed. I always wondered why the inside of the Duomo was so barren and that is because they took everything out of it and put it in the museum right behind it. There is an interesting collection in here and it was nowhere near as busy as the parts of the Duomo like the line to get inside the main part, the line to do the dome climb, or the line for the Santa Reparata. We had no line here and walked right in. It has several levels and an impressive collection of statues and the gold doors to the baptistery. It is definitely worth a stop.

    We went after booking tickets online, but you can probably just pay at the door as there is not a queue at this Museum. It's not open every day so best check beforehand There's a stunning medieval courtyard and a series of rooms with all kinds of collections. Unfortunately after about 2 hours we were exhausted and tired, there is not place to sit in any of the rooms. The only seating area is in the courtyard and that's very limited, so it's hard to take a breather, recharge then continue. The Michelangelo Room is closed at present.

    The artwork commissioned in this palace is stunning. There were so many talented painters trained by the Medici the whole palace is a feast for your senses. You feel like you are walking through history in their footsteps. It’s so impressive eluding the power of this incredible family. You will have neck ache from viewing the incredible ceilings. Beware it’s very hot no air conditioning! Everyone visits the Euffizi galleries in my opinion the is more amazing and minus the shoulder to shoulder slow moving crowds.
