About Florence

Florence, berceau de la Renaissance, rassemble des chefs-d'œuvre d'art et d'architecture dans une ville compacte aux rues de pierre, au bord de l'Arno.

Le Duomo, avec la grande coupole de brique rouge de Brunelleschi, le campanile de Giotto et les portes dorées du baptistère, marque le centre de la ville. À quelques rues de là, la piazza della Signoria et le Palazzo Vecchio font face à une loggia remplie de sculptures, et la galerie des Offices abrite Botticelli, Léonard de Vinci et Raphaël. Le David de Michel-Ange se dresse à la galerie de l'Académie.
