The cultural capital of Tuscany, whose charm and splendid past have remained unaltered. Home of the Renaissance and the cradle of modern design, Florence has the best Renaissance art in Europe. In a single day, you can look Michelangelo’s David in the eyes, fall under the seductive sway of Botticelli’s Birth of Venus, and climb the modern world’s first dome, which dominates the skyline. Of course, Florentine art goes beyond paintings and statues – enjoy the food, fashion, and street markets. Where else can you stroll the same pedestrian streets walked by Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci and Botticelli while savouring the world’s best gelato?
