Discover Florence! Where to start? By art certainly, art that gave it its world reputation.Thanks to the Medici, the greatest artists gave his nobility to the city par excellence of the Italian Renaissance, the city of Michelangelo, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci and Donatello.
Being able to admire their masterpieces “in real” will leave you one of your most beautiful memories.
You have seen them all in books or on television, but being in front of Botticelli's “Spring” or his “Birth of Venus” or in front of Leonardo da Vinci's “Adoration of the Magi” is a unique experience, one can only be moved by so much beauty.
