The heart of Florence and some of the best statues in the world on view - for free! Yes Michelangelo's David is great but better by far is Cellini's Perseus. More

Sitting at a caffe sipping a drink during the Gucci Museo's light show was magical at night. The history is inescapable and you just sit and consider how amazing it all is. More
