Head up to the top of the dome, and you’ll be rewarded with uninterrupted views over the city. But bear in mind that the stairs are steep, so this might not be a suitable activity for young children or anyone with a fear of heights.
From the Duomo, you’re within walking distance to other historic landmarks in the city. These include the Pitti Palace, Ponte Vecchio and Basilica of Santa Croce.
The architectural beauty in Florence isn’t just limited to monuments and buildings—but also extends out to include natural spaces. The city is known for its lush gardens and parks, the most famous of which are the Rose Garden, Bardini Gardens, and Boboli Gardens. The latter is located just behind the Pitti Palace, so combine your trip here with a visit to the palace.
