This enchanting square, dedicated to the illustrious sculptor Michelangelo, offers visitors not just a glimpse into Renaissance artistry but also a panoramic view that captures the very essence of Florence itself. As the sun sets, the city transforms into a canvas of warm golds and deep purples, perfectly framed by the iconic domes and towers that rise up to dance against the sky.

Embrace the romantic atmosphere as you stroll along the beautifully designed terrace, where copies of Michelangelo’s famous statues, including David, stand sentinel, inviting contemplation and admiration. The soft murmur of the Arno River below and the gentle rustle of cypress trees create a symphony of nature that harmonizes with the artistic achievements around you.

The best place to get the most wonderful view of the whole of Florence. We did get a taxi to the top but really enjoyed the walk down-which takes you through a beautiful rose garden. We also had drinks and ice cream in the café.
