Hello, florence

Florence, the regional capital of Tuscany, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Italy. It is acknowledged by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site and stepping onto its historic cobbles, it is easy to see why. Cradled between the surrounding hills, the city hosts some of the most famous works of art on the planet, and the whole of the city centre is packed with stunning palaces, churches, and monuments. The surrounding countryside is well-known for its rolling hills and its wine, particularly the Chianti area between Siena and Florence.

Palazzo Pitti

The Pitti Palace houses different types of museums and temporary exhibits. The basis of the current palace dates back to 1458 when it was the residence of the powerful bank man Luca Pitti. It was then bought by the Medici family one century later and employed as the official residence of the ruling family of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. In connection with Palazzo Pitti, you will find the Boboli Gardens, which are among the most beautiful and ancient royal gardens in Italy.

Museo Casa di Dante — House of Dante

Born in Florence in 1265, Dante is the father of the modern Italian language and author of the famous The Divine Comedy–one of the great's masterpieces of world literature. Keep in mind that the museum is not the actual place where Dante was born; it is a restored medieval house similar to Dante's birthplace. This picturesque tower house illustrates the story of the poet and medieval Florence through historical documents and some models.

Galleria dell’Accademia

This gallery is mostly famous for its sculptures by Michelangelo: The Prisoners, St. Matthew and, above all, the magnificent statue of David. Accademia houses works by the greatest Italian artists, such as Botticelli, Ghirlandaio, Pontormo, and many others. A great part of the collection belonged to the powerful Medici family, who, at the end of their domination, donated it to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany so that this treasure could be preserved and enjoyed by everyone.

Museo Galileo

Museo Galileo features exhibitions that include all kinds of inventions from history, with informative videos showing how they work. Since Galileo Galilei was one of the world's most celebrated scientists and inventors, this museum is a tribute to him and to the work he accomplished in Florence.
