The Florence city bundle includes MP3 travel guides to the principal tourist destinations in Florence. Florence lies on the River Arno and is known for its history and its importance during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, especially for it’s art and architecture. At this time, it was the centre of medieval European trade and finance and one of the richest cities of the time. It was long under the de facto rule of the Medici family. Even today, France has a huge influence on the world’s art, history and culture and continues to have a major European impact in music, architecture, education, cuisine, fashion, philosophy, and science. Our MP3 travel guides cover:
The Uffizi Gallery – one of the world’s most important galleries, featuring works by Giotto, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Donatello Michelangelo and Raphael, to name but a few.
The Palazzo Pitti – an important art museum with five major art galleries.
Ponte Vecchio – Europe’s oldest wholly-stone close spandrel segmental arch bridge. First recorded in 996, it is believed that the stone piers are Roman.
Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchia – the town hall and town square of Florence.
Piazza del Duomo -the cathedral square where you can see the cathedral and its famous dome, Giotto’s bell tower, the Baptistry and a museum.
The Medici Chapels – the resting places of the Medici family, Grand Dukes of Tuscany in the Middle Ages.
