Florence - City Video Guide
The Renaissance city of Florence sits at the foot of the Apennine Mountains in Northwest Italy.
The Centro Storica is Florence's compact historical center. Here are many of the city's elaborate buildings, including the Basilica di San Lorenzo, and the 750-year-old Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral, located on the Piazza del Duomo. Giotti's Bell Tower is another recognized Florence landmark.
Religious art can be admired in Florence's museums and galleries. Among the most renowned are the Uffizi Gallery and the Palazzo Vecchio. Michelangelo's original statue of David is kept in the Gallery of The Academy. A replica stands on the picturesque Piazza della Signora.
Children love riding the Carousel on the Piazza della Repubblica. Placing a coin on the snout of Il Porcellino is another Florence tradition kids like to do.
Florence is punctuated with many historical palaces and bridges. Two of particular note are the Palazzo Pitti (one-time residence of the influential Medici family) and the 400-year-old Ponte Vecchio.

The Palazzo Vecchio (Old Palace) is the town hall of Florence, Italy
The Palazzo Vecchio (Old Palace) is the town hall of Florence, Italy. This massive, Romanesque, crenellated fortress-palace is among the most impressive town halls of Tuscany. Overlooking the Piazza della Signoria with its copy of Michelangelo's David statue as well as the gallery of statues in the adjacent Loggia dei Lanzi, it is one of the most significant public places in Italy. Originally called the Palazzo della Signoria, after the Signoria of Florence, the ruling body of the Republic of Florence, it was also given several other names: Palazzo del Popolo, Palazzo dei Priori, and Palazzo Ducale, in accordance with the varying use of the palace during its long history. The building acquired its current name when the Medici duke's residence was moved across the Arno to the Palazzo Pitti.
