A review of this place

Awesome! Great museums! saw the Piazza del Mercato Vecchio and The Duomo. Uffizi Gallery was worth seeing! Find the Irish bar and go there!

The best year and a half of my life

just about.
Hard to think of better times.

I’m going to go back and live here for at least 3 years next time.

Why I recommend this place to visitors

A beautiful and charming city where everything is within walking distance of everything else. Florence is very easy to explore and extremely rewarding.

A tip for visitors: buy your museum tickets in advance from one of the ticket offices around the city, it saves you an extremely long wait. My friend and I arrived at Uffizi before the opening time and already there was a huge line outside and we waited about 30 minutes.

The first time I went to this place

i spent an amazing 5 weeks here studying the art, architecture, villas, and gardens. this trip was truly life changing; i cannot begin to explain it. italy has such a beautiful culture, language, and just a certain way of life about it and i miss dearly. i can’t wait to go back!

A review of this place: amazing

I’ve studied Art History for several years now, and thought I knew what to expect from Florence. What I didn’t know was how deeply it would affect me. Seeing great works in galleries is a wonderful thing, but doesn’t have near the impact of seeing great works in their original setting. I cried buckets of tears daily. My soul was awakened, and now I can only think of when and how I can go back.
