City: Florencia

Florence, the capital of Tuscany, is a sanctuary of Renaissance art and architecture. Birthplace of geniuses such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Dante, the city is packed with masterpieces around every corner. Its historic center, dominated by Brunelleschi's majestic dome, is an open-air museum that transports visitors to the Medici era. From Michelangelo's David to the treasures of the Uffizi Gallery, Florence is an essential destination for understanding the roots of the Western world.

The heart of Tuscan cuisine, based on simple and high-quality ingredients.

The 'Bistecca alla Fiorentina' is legendary.Rustic dishes such as 'ribollita' and 'pappa al pomodoro'.The Central Market offers an incredible gastronomic experience.Chianti wine is just a step away.
As in all of Italy, avoid tourist traps near the main attractions.

Culture

100

Possibly the largest concentration of Renaissance art on the planet. Simply unbeatable.

The Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia Gallery (with the David) are two of the most important museums in the world.The Medici Chapels and the churches of Santa Croce and Santa Maria Novella house masterpieces.The Renaissance was born here.
It is mandatory to reserve tickets to the main museums months in advance.Stendhal syndrome is a real risk (getting overwhelmed by art).

Florentines are friendly but, as in other crowded cities, they can be tired of tourism.

In the Oltrarno neighborhood or outside the center, people are more relaxed and authentic.They are proud of their city and its culture.
Service can be rushed in tourist areas.Overcrowding has generated a certain impatience.

Tips for Gastronomy

Eat a 'panino al lampredotto'

The Florentine 'street food' par excellence. It is a sandwich made with the fourth stomach of the cow, cooked slowly. Look for it at kiosks ('trippai') around the city.

Bistecca alla Fiorentina: to share

It is a very thick and rare beef steak. It is charged by weight (al 'etto', 100g) and is usually at least 1kg, so it is a dish to share between 2 or more people.

Dinner reservation

Good, authentic restaurants ('trattorie') are usually small and fill up quickly. Reservations are highly recommended, especially for dinner.
