Discover the dreamy quintessential city of Florence, Italy, with its extraordinary history infused with Renaissance masterpieces of art and architecture. Marvel at its most iconic sight, the Duomo Cathedral, with its world-famous terracotta-tiled dome engineered by Brunelleschi, along with its delightful Bell Tower by Giotto that should be admired at the top - climb up for the most memorable views of Florence's city below and the picturesque rolling hills that surround the city. For the perfect art themed day, stroll through the magnificent Galleria dell'Accademia which showcases the exquisitely sculpted "David" statue by Michelangelo, and continue onward to the equally enlightening Uffizi Gallery with its exhibits that include Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus", and impressive works by Leonardo da Vinci's such as his "Annuniciation". Be moved by other masterpieces each titled "The Last Supper", as there are seven total frescoes within the confines of the ancient city center alone - one of the divine fresco painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Domenico Ghirlandaio is located in the refectory of the Convent of Ornissanti; while another is at the refectory of Santa Croce with its awe-inspiring threshold that transports you into a brilliantly colored myriad of painted religious figures depicting six different scenes in religious history. Spend an enchanting afternoon in any of the magical gardens of Florence such as the Bardini Gardens and be immersed into their tranquil flowering ambiances in the middle of the city - sit a while to sip a cappuccino or eat a gelato; explore the beautiful residential villas and Florentine palaces, and end at the Ponte Vecchio Bridge for the perfect photo opportunity at sunset. Take in Tuscany's most important Gothic Church, the Santa Maria Novella, which houses an extensive collection of artistic treasures; and experience the most beautiful of Italian residences, the Medici Villa with its splendid garden of many statues, fountains and floral delights.
