Travelers' atelier Bright top floor open view

This was my 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 family apartment on the 𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 of the historic 𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿. It’s on the 𝟱th and 𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗿 of a small building (elevator to the 4th floor + one flight of stairs) in a quiet residential area. For me, it’s a calm corner with a view of the hills and the rooftops. We renovated it recently, keeping the warmth of a real home, hoping you’ll feel part of the city. The sunsets from the entry window are a small extra touch — something I hope will stay with you. ---

All about Florence

The capital of Tuscany, Florence conjures images of lemon and apricot-hued buildings, terracotta rooftops, and endless Renaissance beauty. From the world-famous Uffizi art museum — top tip: get there early for a more relaxed experience — to the impressive sculptures in the peaceful Boboli Gardens, this historic city in central Italy lives long in the memory. A good way to get the lie of the land is the panoramic view from Piazzale Michelangelo. If you’re lucky, you’ll catch a couple descending the church steps after their wedding as the bells chime out across the city below.

The majestic Duomo is a sight to behold at any time of day, whether you’re passing by to grab lunch from one of the city’s traditional panini stands or enjoying a refreshing after-dinner gelato on a balmy evening stroll. Just like the mighty Arno – look out for plaques commemorating the destructive flood of 1966 – craftsmanship flows through Florence, with jewellery, leather goods, and perfumes all locally made by generations of experts.

What are the top things to do in Florence?

Oltrarno

Oltrarno — literally “across the Arno” — is a tangle of pretty streets scattered with a blend of crisp white tablecloths outside family-run eateries and cutting-edge art in small galleries. Watch as tree-dotted Piazza Santo Spirito transforms from market stalls and nonnas chatting by the foundation to a buzzing outdoor nightspot.

Palazzo Medici Riccardi

The most famous family in Florence, the powerful Medici dynasty ruled the city and the entire region of Tuscany for almost 300 years. Explore the historic artwork at their Renaissance palace — the swirling frescoes on the gallery ceiling and the vivid walls of the Chapel of the Magi are breath-taking. Be sure to check out the ground floor exhibition space dedicated to work by contemporary artists.

Mercato Centrale

This metal-framed two-story market — an easy 10-minute walk from the Duomo — is brimming with locally made oils, fresh breads, and piles of fragrant sundried tomatoes. Pick up a bottle of wine for the evening, choose some tools to up your kitchen game, then head upstairs for a taste of fresh handmade pasta.
