Stendhal Hotel Rome
Five Travel Tips for Florence
1 The Board of the Uffizi Gallery
The Uffizi Gallery contains some of the collections art the most important and largest in the world. It is also the oldest museum in the world. Most guidebooks and online travel sites ask you ensure a visit to the Uffiizi is included as part of your vacation in Florence, no matter how short. What most of them do not say, or at least enough tension important is that without a ticket booked in advance, you may not be able to visit the Uffizi at all!
My wife and I have had three holidays in Florence in early April 2005. We had planned to visit the Uffizi Gallery and once you have checked in our hotel, we phoned the gallery to purchase tickets. After several attempts without our calls being answered, we asked the front desk to make reservations for us. I explained that it was often difficult to get through the online booking system and we stayed three days I could not provide sufficient time to make a reservation possible. Nevertheless, hotel staff were very happy to keep trying everything we enjoy the wonders of Florence. We decided to check the status of the same the next day but the tails have found that just seems to move, which covers an enormous distance in the full scope of the Uffizi Gallery. Queues throughout the day was certainly not the way I wanted to spend our time in Florence, so we decided to leave things in the hands of all the reception staff enjoy the attractions that had come to see. The next night we were informed that, after many failed attempts to pass through the reserve line, success was finally achieved, but only for information that all tickets were sold for the day. Therefore, we have stopped seeing many of the greatest art treasures of Florence and our best travel tips for anyone visiting Florence in short stay holidays is to book tickets online for the Uffizi Gallery some time before your holiday.
2 The Council of Interior of the Cathedral
Another of the wonders of Florence not to be missed is the Cathedral. In fact, it is impossible to miss this wonderful building because it dominates the city and can be seen everywhere. Admire the views of the same while sipping coffee in cafes around the square. Drive around, stopping now time to appreciate from all aspects. See for more senior positions in the city. Was once the largest cathedral in the world and even today, almost 600 years after construction, is the fourth largest. Florence has always insisted that everything is bigger and better, but what is really unique is the dome of the Duomo or "dome." Filippo Brunelleschi, when it carried out this masterpiece of Renaissance architecture, no one believed that this dome was possible. The secret had been lost for more than thousand years, but Brunelleschi went to Rome to unravel by examining the dome of the Pantheon of age.
My recommendation is to climb the Duomo is incredible feat technology. You can do this by introducing a staircase leading into the dome, between its inner and outer hulls. Upon reaching the top, you can exit in an outdoor gallery, which offers magnificent views of the city and the surrounding countryside. This gallery is not done, however, if their views are limited to the north and west directions.
3 Palazzo Vecchio – Copy of David Council
Perhaps the most famous landmark, near Florence is the Palazzo Vecchio. Again, is benefiting from a building in all aspects before coming out to explore the fascinating, full of art inside.
My recommendation for the Palazzo Vecchio is to save a few minutes looking at the stripes pollution copy of the most famous statue in the world, realizing that while the original Miguel David Angel is any security within the Academy, the issue is standing in the place where once was the original.
4 Cross Over Arno Council
This advice withdrew from the busiest tourist and entertainment center across the river Arno on the Ponte Vecchio. The crowd at the historic bridge will probably be wonderful even tighter than in the central place you just left, but a hundred yards the other hand, is clean and you can discover the pleasures of the Boboli Gardens and Palace Pitti before walking trails Piazza Michelangelo is located on a beautiful hill overlooking Florence and its surroundings.
Florence 5 A tip end of the journey - Avoid the "Stendhal syndrome"
Florence has so much beauty that each year there are few tourists to be treated at local hospitals to a condition known as "Stendhal Syndrome." Symptoms range from a sense of failure of total exhaustion. Stendhal was a French tourist whose nineteenth-century Florence Torre as overloads the senses collapsed with these symptoms.
My last tip Travel for a short holiday in Florence is not to try to pack too much in. Even if the wealth of artistic treasures of Florence, the achievement of beauty and architecture not actually running for you to send medical aid, which can easily overwhelm a visitor who does not follow that advice.
