Florence is an amazing city with so much to do.
Gucci Garden is a great museum to go to if you love fashion exhibits and eccentric art. Each room in the exhibition is a different era of Gucci designs. On the ground floor, you can find a boutique with items that can only be found at the Gucci Garden. As someone who loves fashion this was a must place to stop. And if you take your student ID you can get a discount on admission.
The Accademia Gallery is an amazing historical museum that deeply moved me due to the rich historical artifacts. Michelangelo’s sculpture of David was amazing to see in real life and as a person who is religious made me feel so deeply connected to my faith.
Piazza di Michelangelo is the best spot to see the sunset over the city. It is about a 20-minute walk from downtown and sits on the top of a hill that looks over Florence. We had dinner on the hill so we would already be up there for the sunset and it was absolutely the best decision for the end of our day in Florence. It does get packed for the sunset view so arriving early to the spot you want to be at for sunset is important to having a good view. It was just spectacular and a couple ended up getting engaged right at sunset which made it that more special.
