Florence, Italy, boasts top-notch museums, stunning architecture and mouthwatering cuisine. Must-do's include admiring Michelangelo's David at the Galleria dell'Accademia (home to the world's largest collection of Michelangelo's artworks), taking in city and river views from the Ponte Vecchio and climbing to the top of the Duomo – Florence's most recognizable attraction. When hunger strikes, head to the Mercato Centrale Firenze to stock up on fresh meats and cheeses or sit down for mushroom tagliatelle or gelato at a charming outdoor eatery. Later, take time to wander around the beautiful Piazza della Signoria, which sits adjacent to the famed Uffizi Gallery.
