Italy 🇮🇹｜The Birthplace of the Renaissance, Florence - The City of Flowers

The Florence described by Xu Zhimo is Florence. "The City of Flowers" refers to Florence in Italy. This name comes from its original Italian name. Firenze, meaning "City of Flowers," is the cradle of the Renaissance, located in Tuscany, Italy. 🩷 Formerly controlled by the Medici family, Florence became a major cultural, commercial, and financial center in medieval Europe. It served as the capital of unified Italy from 1865 to 1871. The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is breathtaking. It's so captivating you'll want to see more. I couldn't bear to leave, so I took a few more photos with this magnificent building. 🤣👏 Seeing the "Gate of Paradise," praised by Michelangelo, was truly incredible. ✨️✨️✨️ The statue of David was everywhere, and I don't know how many I saw. 🤣🤣🤣 Taking photos at the Ponte Vecchio is a lifelong experience. ❗️❗️❗️❗️ The more days you spend in Italy, the more you'll appreciate it. This country is full of art, culture, and a strong emphasis on taste and style. ✨️ The cascading chocolate wall at the Venchi Chocolate Shop is truly eye-catching 🍫🍫 Business is booming, and the lines for their gelato are incredibly long. Venchi Chocolate is quite well-known ❗😋 The carousel in the square is so colorful and adorable, it looks stunning in every photo. 🎠 It's a shame I didn't get to go. 😂 This city of art is truly stunning. 🥰✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ A full day here feels like just a quickie. 😂 Stay at least two or three days to truly appreciate the essence of Italian art. 😂 There are incredibly dedicated street performers who I admire immensely. 👍🩷 There are also many talented street artists. I'm completely captivated by this city. ❗ #Firenze #Basilica of Santa Croce #Santa Maria Novella #Italia #Italy 🇮🇹 #Florence #Fountain of Neptune #poptour #poptour #travel #cooltravelexperiences #travelholic #PhotographyGuide #100Ways to Travel
