my top 3 places in florence would be:

1. the boboli gardens - simply beautiful and really removes you from the bustle of the city. we spent an afternoon there and just explored the pathways and took in the sites.

2. the duomo - while i huffed and puffed up every 400+ stair, i couldnt believe i paid 6 euros for it. but when we reached the balconies under the decorate dome and then finally reached the outside, top of the duomo, every euro was worth it. the art inside and the view outside are not something i will find every again. i intend to hike it up there again, next time i am in florence.

3. the streets - we loved roaming the streets and finding the outdoor markets, little shops, places to grab a snack, and just enjoying the architecture. i felt like i was in another time and just something completely different than what i had experienced before. getting lost only added to the fun!
