2. Piazzale Michelangelo

The walk to visit Piazzale Michelangelo is a bit steep, but the sight of the Duomo and Florence’s narrow streets make the climb worthwhile. Located on San Miniato hill, overlooking the Arno and all of Florence’s great sights, it is a must-visit destination for any city visitor. Trek or take a taxi up, then cool down with a drink on one of the terraces or in the loggia lining the edge of the square.

3. Gallery of the Academy of Florence

The Gallery of the Academy of Florence, more commonly known as Accademia Gallery, displays the work of Michelangelo beautifully. The former home of the famous Accademia delle Belle Arti was given over to a celebration of the great artist’s work, particularly his David, which stands at the heart of the museum. Though many visitors stop in for a quick look at the David statue and then leave fairly quickly, stay around to appreciate the other galleries and floors for an impressive collection of musical instruments and an interesting look at the methods and interests of 14th-century painters.

5. Arno River

The Arno River travels gently through Florence on its 150-mile (240-kilometer) journey from Mount Falterona to the Tyrrhenian Sea. During Roman times this was a significant resource to the city and allowed merchants to bring wealth by trade links with the Mediterranean. Walk the banks of the Arno River today to see iconic bridges and resplendent palaces. Cruise the river waters by boat and rafting tours.
