List of top Places of Florence

• Duomo
• The Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore (known
  simply as the Duomo) is not only Florence's
  religious center it's also the city's most
  recognizable attraction. Occupying the Piazza del
  Duomo in the heart of the city, this massive
  Gothic cathedral was erected during the 14th
  century on the former site of the Roman church,
  Santa Reparata. Here you see the church's
  massive, iconic dome.

• Ponte Vecchio
• This bridge does get packed with tourists, but
  it really is a special place that you should
  experience once. It is believed that it was
  originally built in Roman times, but the Ponte
  Vecchio that you see now was built in 1345. It
  has always housed tiny shops, and now jewelry,
  especially gold, is sold behind beautiful old
  shop doors. The views from the bridge at sunrise
  and sunset are not to be missed.

• Galleria dellAccademia
• The Galleria dellAccademia is much smaller
  and essentially exists to show off one piece of
  artwork Michelangelos magnificent David in all
  his glory, housed in a room built especially for
  the statue! There is not much else to see in the
  gallery, so you wont need a terribly long time
  here, but be sure to check out some of
  Michelangelos unfinished statues that are in the
  museum.

• Giottos Bell Tower
• Florences famous Duomo has two options for
  climbing if youre looking for an incredible view
  over Florence, and the less-touristed option is
  our personal preference.Climbing Giottos Bell
  Tower ensures that not only you get an amazing
  view of Florence itself, you also get a close-up
  view of the famous cupolaits hard to admire the
  iconic structure when youre standing on it!
