Florence
Italy
The Cradle of the Renaissance — Michelangelo, the Duomo, and Tuscany's finest food
Why visit Florence?
Florence is Italy's most artistic city — birthplace of the Renaissance, home to Michelangelo's David, Botticelli's Venus, and some of the world's greatest art collections. The stunning Duomo, Ponte Vecchio bridge, and rolling Tuscan hills make Florence a timeless masterpiece.
April, May, June, September, October
Mediterranean with hot summers (33°C) and mild winters (9°C). Spring (April–June) and autumn (September–October) are perfect — comfortable and less crowded than peak summer.
Florence is in Italy, which is in the Schengen Area. GCC nationals and most Arabs need a Schengen visa (80 EUR). Apply at the Italian consulate.
