Let's take a little insight of these amazing places!

1530: Football was born here
Piazza Santa Croce

This is one of the most iconic squares in Florence, where every year on St. John's celebrations it's played the historic Florentine football tournament, a sort of ancestor of modern football.
The Basilica of Santa Croce is also for hosting the graves of some illustrious men in the history of Italy.

Historic seat of the Municipality of Florence
Piazza della Signoria

This square hosts the historical seat of the Municipality of Florence, Palazzo Vecchio. The iconic statue of Michelangelo's David is just a copy: the original one is hosted in the Accademia museum.
The square also features the Neptune's Fountain and the Loggia dei Lanzi, hosting several famous sculptures.

The most ancient bridge in Florence
Ponte Vecchio

During their retreat from Italy, the Nazis, attempting to slow down the Allied advance, blew up all the bridges in Florence. Ponte Vecchio was the only to survive.
Now it hosts goldsmiths' shops.

One of the coolest areas in Florence
Quartiere Sant'Ambrogio

This area hosts, among others, numerous trendy clubs, shops, and restaurants frequented by the students of the nearby University.
It is also the district featuring the Florence's sinagogue, with a market where Eastern and Western flavors and scents meet in harmony.

Florentia's main square
Piazza della Repubblica

Florence gets its name from Florentia, founded by the Ancient Romans. Piazza della Repubblica is now where the ancient Florentia's Forum was.
Rebuild and redesigned after the Italian Unity, it is home to elegant and glorious cafes founded in the 19th century where intellectuals used to gather.

Most wanted Florence's postcard
Piazza Duomo

This is probably the most iconic square in Florence, with its octagonal Baptistery, Giotto's majestic bell tower and the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore dominated by Brunelleschi's majestic dome.
You can't say you've been in Florence if you haven't at least taken a shot here!
