Bongiorno, Firenze!

In the duomoHere he is, the genius Brunelleschi, erected facing his masterpiece
Walking up a narrow stairway, up to the cupola. It was a feat!
The Medici Chapel. It's absolutely extravagant inside. Saw Michelangelo's Dawn and Dusk/Night and Day statues
Ponte Vecchio... looks like a storybook place
Outside the Uffizi. I really love this plazza
Night view of the plaza. All the beautiful sculptures...


When in Italy, never ever miss the cappucino. It's a crime



On a long walk up and down on the other side of the river


The Duomo dominating the skyline, the tallest building in Florence


A replica of the statue of David, at Plazza Michelangelo



Night, at Plazza Santa Croche

A fountain at another amazing Plaza, with all the columns facing the square done by Brunelleschi






The SynagogueSanta Croche Cathedral
