Planning your visit to Florence
Florence is compact and made for walking: the Duomo, the Uffizi and the Ponte Vecchio are barely ten minutes apart on foot. Nearly all of the Renaissance is packed into that perimeter, so the challenge is not getting around — it is pacing the visits so you do not stack two heavyweight galleries into one day.
The Uffizi and the Accademia, home of Michelangelo’s David, are where queues can swallow a morning: both use timed entry, and an early slot pays off. Crossing to the Oltrarno, the south bank, changes the tempo — artisan workshops, quieter squares, and the climb to Piazzale Michelangelo for the city at sunset. Tuscany and its vineyards are close enough for a day trip.
