If you're an art lover, you'll be thrilled by the majestic statues, colorful frescoes and inspiring paintings that seem to decorate every turn in Florence, Italy. Get acquainted with the city's artistic heritage at the Uffizi Gallery, a repository for works by Botticelli, da Vinci, Titian, Rafael and Michelangelo. Admire the white, green and pink marble decorating the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. You can also hunt for bargains at the open-air market at the Piazza San Lorenzo.
If you're arriving by land, the city is a major stop in Italy's railway network. You can also take a car on the A11 motorway or the Florence-Pisa-Livorno dual carriageway. If you travel by air, Amerigo Vespucci Airport (FLR) is only 15 to 20 minutes away from the city. If you stay in the historic center of the city, you can get to most of the main sites on foot. Otherwise, you can travel around the city on electric buses or taxis.
You can visit Florence at almost any time of year because of the mild weather. Temperatures may hit a low of 34 degrees in the winter but rise to 87 degrees in the summer. The city was formally founded in 59 B.C. as a Roman settlement, but it reached its glory days during the Renaissance. The population grew in the 20th century because of tourism, financial services and trade.
