1. The Uffizi Gallery

The Uffizi Gallery contains some of the largest and most important art collections in the world. It is also the oldest museum in the world.

What do not most of them, or less emphasis on stress enough that, without reservation cards you may not be able to have visited the offices at all!

My wife and I had a holiday to three days in Florence in early April 2005. We had planned to visit the Uffizi Gallery and once we buy at our hotel by phone Ticket gallery. After several attempts were not answered our calls, we asked the hotel reception to book us. They explained that it was almost always difficult to pass through the reserve, and we stayed three days may not have enough time to make a booking possible. But the hotel staff tried to keep them happy while we enjoy the other wonders of Florence. We decided to examine the situation for us the next day but found that the queue does not move, which extends over a large distance in the Uffizi Gallery. Stand in line all day was not how we wanted to spend our time in Florence, so we decided to leave things in the capable hands of staff at the reception, while enjoying the views we had just seen.

We therefore see missed many of the greatest artistic treasures of Florence and our top travel tip for anyone visiting Florence on holiday in the short term booking tickets for the Uffizi online some time before your holiday.

2. The Inside Tip for the Duomo

Do not miss another one of the wonders of Florence Cathedral. In fact, it is impossible to miss this beautiful building, overlooking the town and visible everywhere. Enjoy the view on it while sipping coffee in cafes around the square. Walk around to enjoy the occasional breaks in all fields. View the most distant high positions in the city. This time it was the largest cathedral in the world, and even now, almost six hundred years after its creation, is the fourth largest. Florence has always insisted that everything be the biggest and best, but what makes it truly unique is the dome of the cathedral or “cupola”. When Filippo Brunelleschi is the masterpiece of Renaissance architecture, nobody believed that this dome was possible. The secret had been lost for over a thousand years, but Brunelleschi went to Rome to decipher by looking at the old dome of the Pantheon.

My suggestion to the cathedral, this incredible feat of engineering. You can do this by a staircase inside the dome, between the inner and outer layers. Upon reaching the summit, you can sit on a porch with a magnificent view over the city and the nearby Tuscan countryside. The photo gallery is not quite finished, so that their views are confined to the north and west directions.

3. Palazzo Vecchio – David’s Copy Tip

Perhaps the most famous sights of Florence is located next to the Palazzo Vecchio. Again, this is hardly a building to be assessed all aspects to the outside before they explore the full, fascinating art inside.

My suggestion for the Palazzo Vecchio is a few minutes to spare, look for scratches on the copy of the pollution of the most famous statue in the world recognize that even if the original David by Michelangelo is certainly in the Academy, the copy will be the place where was the original.

5. One last tip Florence Travel – Avoid “Stendhal’s sydrome”

Florence has so much beauty that each year there are few tourists who are treated in local hospitals for a condition known as Stendhal Syndrome. “Symptoms range from drowsiness to complete exhaustion. Stendhal was a French tourist overload whose tour of Florence nineteenth century its meaning, so that together with these symptoms.

My last reference to a short trip to the festival in Florence does not look too self-pack, if wealth is not actually run into artistic treasures of Florence, the beauty and achievements of the architecture of the medical aid, which can easily dominate send to a tourist who ignores this advice.
