Even a short walk around Florence is enough to leave you speechless and awe-struck by the enormous amount of art and beauty in this unique city. If you visit Florence for the first time you will be surprised by finding yourself literally surrounded by art hidden in richly-decorated churches and in the magnificent private palaces of noble families. You will walk through the squares full of statues and the works of art will be all around you.

It is very easy to feel lost between these monuments. The Florentine buildings talk about the past, they tell fascinating stories about the people who built and who decorated them, about the families who lived between these walls and who, with an enormous effort, made Florence one of the most fascinating and powerful cities in Europe.
