If you love art and history, you will be in heaven in Florence. I have been there several times, in different seasons, and the place never fails to inspire.
Everyplace you wander in Florence, you will find glorious art. Down a little alley, on every building... you will find something to delight the eye and spirit.
Things that would appear in a museum in the US are a normal part of Florence street life. Here, a corner fountain provides amusement and relieves thirst.
- Pros:Beauty everywhere
- Cons:Having to leave
- In a nutshell:Spectacular

just a little taste of florence
I love Florence and all its art. It always has something new to offer the visitor ;-)
a lovely page. thanks for sharing! : )
Oh, beautiful, exquisite Florence & the AMAZING DAVID, the ultimate example of man--brilliant, courageous, honorable, & physical perfection. What a joy!
Ahhh, bella Firenze! I had the same thought about how amazing it is that David hid inside a block of marble. And now he's all over the city! I'm making a note of your restaurant tips. Grazie!
Fine river and sculpture photos!
As Julie (blint) says, you definitely like David and sculptures in general! Very interesting page on an interesting city!
I see you like David!:-)
