A Photo Tour to Piazzale Michelangelo, Florence City, Italy

Italy is such an awesome destination. Some places don’t need a description of their beauty and the photographs say it all. Florence is one such destination and the more I share the less it will be. I will be publishing series of photo tour to Italy and here is my first one.

TOUR TO ITALY SERIES ONE

A day in Florence City!

Tuscany is the beautiful region on Italy’s west coast, on the Tyrrhenian Sea. The capital of this region is known as Florence, also called as Firenze. Firenze is also known as “La Dolce Vita”…The Good Life! The beautiful architecture by Michelangelo and paintings by Giorgio Vasari makes this a must visit Italian destination.

If you reach one of the most appreciated and best-rated destinations Florence you need to explore the city for at least a week.

More on this city in my blog later but here’s a photo tour to one of the most important visits to the Piazzale Michelangelo.

Once you settle in Florence, you can easily take a bus or bike or car and drive uphill to the Piazzale.

Below is picture gallery on this day trip we planned and totally recommend.

Welcome to San Miniato al Monte Church – One of the most scenic basilicas on the highest point in Florence. People from around the world come here to get married because of the most beautiful views.

These are the views from where I am standing and I can’t get enough of this beauty.

And here’s a zoomed-in view of the terracotta Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, and its tower.

Here’s a cemetery surrounded by cypress forest and this view. Isn’t this really peaceful place to rest.

View of Palazzo Vecchio. The town hall of Florence.

The very famous Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, and Vasari Corridor —an elevated enclosed passageway which connects the Palazzo Vecchio with the Palazzo Pitti.

Have a look at the church from inside.Time for some spiritual moment.

 

Check out this river, the river Arno only adds further to the beauty

Beautiful bridges over the Arno. I don’t think I can get enough of this view of the river and the bridges.

Finally, welcome to the Piazzale Michelangelo with Apennine mountains backdrop and the replica of the most famous art form the DAVID.

Full moon night at Florence city, good night all until the next day arrives and I explore the city of Florence. Can’t wait to visit each of these monuments.
