Florence, the spectacular capital of the region of Tuscany, is located on Italy’s northwest coast. It is a stunning medieval city divided into two parts by the River Arno that flows from the Apennines through Florence and Pisa and on to the Ligurian Sea.<\/p>\n
Florence is considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world with its overflow of palaces, churches and museums filled with masterful paintings and sculptures. The heart of the city and the religious and historical center is the\u00a0Piazza del Duomo<\/b>, the site of a monumental complex of extreme value: the\u00a0Duomo\u00a0of Santa Maria del Fiore<\/b>, rich in works of art and topped by\u00a0Brunelleschi\u2019s majestic dome.\u00a0The\u00a0Battistero di San Giovanni<\/b>, a magnificent example of Florentine Romanesque architecture, lies in front of the Duomo, facing\u00a0Giotto\u2019s Bell Tower<\/b>, a masterpiece of Florentine Gothic architecture. The magnificent\u00a0Loggia del Bigallo\u00a0<\/b>completes the Piazza\u2019s grandeur. Behind the Duomo is the magnificent\u00a0Museo dell’Opera di\u00a0Santa Maria del Fiore<\/b>, exhibiting\u00a0a precious collection of artwork that was\u00a0originally inside the Cathedral, Baptistry and Bell Tower.<\/p>\n
It’s really suggested visiting Florence, because this city\u00a0\u00a0represents \u00a0the charm and the power of italian culture!<\/p>\n
