I think this was my favorite city in terms of the beauty. I loved the architecture and the layout of the city. You also don't realize how many famous people came out of this area until you really study the history and check out all the monuments. There isn't a whole lot to do but there's definitely a lot to see.

Didn't have time to stand in line for the Accademia, where the real thing is located, so this would have to do.
