    The heart of Florence lies within the Piazza del Duomo, anchored by its stunning cathedral. The baptistery's famous bronze doors are known as the "Gate of Paradise," while the cathedral itself boasts what was, upon its completion in the 1400s, the largest masonry dome ever built.

  • (Pass by)

    As you look out from the Uffizi, you'll see a true marvel of architecture: the Vasari Corridor. This exclusive, private walkway was built for Duke Cosimo I de' Medici, allowing him and his family to move unseen between their government offices in Palazzo Vecchio and their home in the Palazzo Pitti. Your vantage point on the second floor of the Uffizi places you right at the start of its hidden route across the Arno River.

    Admission ticket free
  • Ponte Vecchio (Pass by)

    From the windows of the Uffizi's second-floor corridor, you can enjoy a stunning, privileged view of the Ponte Vecchio, the "Old Bridge." This medieval stone bridge, built in 1345, is famous for the shops built right along its length. Originally home to stinky butchers, a decree by Grand Duke Ferdinando I de' Medici in 1593 replaced them with goldsmiths and jewelers to improve the decorum of the area. This tradition endures, making the bridge an iconic, glittering landmark on the Arno River.

    Gallerie Degli Uffizi

    This majestic, U-shaped palace was designed by Giorgio Vasari for Cosimo I de’ Medici, the first Grand Duke of Tuscany. It was built starting in 1560 to house the administrative "offices" (uffizi) of Florence. The vast art collection amassed by the powerful Medici family featuring ancient sculptures and Renaissance masterpieces transformed this administrative center into one of the world’s first and finest art museums. This incredible legacy ensured that iconic works by masters like Botticelli, Leonardo, and Michelangelo were protected and preserved for the public forever.
