Mercato Nuovo and 'Il Porcellino'
Experience Florentine traditions at the Mercato Nuovo, also known as the Porcellino Market. Rub the snout of 'Il Porcellino' (the bronze boar) for good luck and learn about the 'Stone of Shame', a poignant reminder of past punishments. Observe how these customs contrast with the vibrant atmosphere of the old market area, offering a glimpse into the city's historical tapestry.
Piazza della Signoria & Palazzo Vecchio
Step into Piazza della Signoria, the heart of Florentine political life. Hear the dramatic story of Savonarola, the monk who briefly seized power. Admire the Fountain of Neptune, once ridiculed but now cherished. Explore the Loggia dei Lanzi, an open-air gallery showcasing Renaissance sculptures. Pay homage to a copy of Michelangelo's David and wander through the Palazzo Vecchio's courtyard, a testament to Florentine power and artistic achievement.
Uffizi Gallery Courtyard
Stroll through the Uffizi Gallery's courtyard, surrounded by statues of Florence's legendary figures, including artists, writers, and military leaders. Understand how the Uffizi evolved from administrative offices to one of the world's most renowned art museums, showcasing the Medici family's profound influence on art and culture.
Ponte Vecchio
Conclude your tour at the iconic Ponte Vecchio, the bridge of goldsmiths, a symbol of Florence's enduring beauty.
