Florence

Florence sits on the Arno River in central Italy and serves as the capital of Tuscany, a region that produces some of the world's most celebrated wines and olive oils. The city is home to the Uffizi Gallery, one of the oldest and most important art museums in Europe, and the Florence Cathedral with its iconic dome designed by Brunelleschi—a feat of Renaissance engineering completed in 1436. Medieval streets radiate from the Ponte Vecchio, a bridge lined with jewelry shops that has spanned the Arno since the 14th century. Florence's economy historically centered on banking and the wool trade; the Medici family's financial power shaped not just the city but the entire Renaissance. Today, leather goods, textiles, and tourism drive the local economy. The city draws roughly 4 million visitors annually, making it one of Italy's most visited destinations. Beyond the major monuments, Florence offers smaller churches filled with frescoes, neighborhood markets selling produce and local products, and a walkable urban core where Renaissance palaces sit alongside contemporary galleries and restaurants. The surrounding hills of Tuscany—dotted with cypress trees, vineyards, and stone farmhouses—are easily accessible by car or train.
