In my opinion Florence is a must see on any Italian trip, whether it is a stop in a larger itinerary or a base for your whole stay. We spent 15 days in Italy and stayed in Florence for 2.5 of those days.\u00a0 We saw and experienced a lot but there was a ton more that we did not have time for or decided not to visit.\u00a0 You could easily stay a week and not see everything.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7419ef9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7419ef9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Galleria del Accademia-<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-239 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-1152x2048.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-1140x2027.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/hello-from.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/0710181018-scaled.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/>Many people have no idea what this place is, but you are almost sure to know or at least heard of the very famous statue it houses.\u00a0 Anyone ever heard of &#8220;The David?&#8221; Of course you have!!!!\u00a0 Accademia is where it is kept along with some other sculptures and amazing art.\u00a0 I see why \u201cThe David\u201d is so famous; The craftsmanship and detail is simply spectacular.

The most famous paintings you would know without being an art enthusiast are &#8220;Primavera&#8221; and &#8220;The Birth of Venus\u201d.\u00a0 There is so much to look at in the Uffizi but we had done our research beforehand to know what we really wanted to see.

What stood out most for me were 2 frescos of riders on horseback (mainly because they had horses in them and I love horses lol), \u201cThe Last Judgment\u201d which is the fresco painted inside of the dome, and an exquisite 24 hour clock. \u00a0 I don\u2019t find it as ornately beautiful as some other churches but still beautiful in a sense that it is simple yet grand at the same

started by Vasari in 1572 and finished after the death of Vasari by Zuccari in 1579.\u00a0 The fresco was commissioned by Cosimo I de\u2019 Medici.\u00a0 You can read more about the church and those who had a hand in the construction by visiting <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/duomo.firenze.it\/it\/scopri\/cattedrale-di-santa-maria-del-fiore\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cathedral of Santa

very flat and somewhat easy to roll around on.\u00a0 They are cobblestones and so may be a bumpy ride.\u00a0 The inside is also very accessible with marble flooring throughout and no steps in the main area.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Baptistery of San Giovanni and Museo dell\u2019Opera del Duomo are both accessible.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Due to the historical nature of the buildings some of them are not accessible.\u00a0 Giotto\u2019s Bell Tower has 414 steps so unless you are able to climb steps you are out of luck.\u00a0 Santa Reparata is a crypt unless you can do stairs.\u00a0 There are not elevators or lifts in either of these places.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element

of it. It is incredibly decorated with ornate and elaborate paintings and tapestries covering the walls and even the ceilings in some rooms.\u00a0 There is much to see here but our main reason to visit was to see Dante&#8217;s death mask (it is a replica but still very cool) and the Hall of 500. Both were in the book <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inferno<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Dan Brown, an author we both love and have read many of his books.\u00a0 Side note: You would best know Dan Brown for<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The DaVinci Code<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Angels and Demons<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, both of which were very popular novels and both were also made into successful movies.\u00a0 As we meandered through the museum we came across the chart room and their collection of antique maps is pretty awesome. There&#8217;s a hidden passageway behind the map of Armenia.\u00a0 The chart room was probably my most favorite room of the museum, pretty fitting for someone who loves to travel.<\/span><\/p><p><span
