Florence

The next stop on my travels was Italy again, this time to Florence. I had wanted to visit this beautiful city for a long time and living in Austria gave me the perfect opportunity to do so, as it was only a few train journeys away.

It was great to explore the city on foot seeing all the different sites. The one thing that wasn't so good was that the Uffizi gallery was far too crowded for my liking. However, I loved my weekend there, and I had lots of opportunities to take photos.

Here are some pictures from the main cathedral in Florence. Unfortunately there was some work being done on the building so it wasn't as photogenic as it normally is, but it was still a very impressive sight!

This is a photo of the Ponte Vecchio, taken from a window of the Uffizi gallery. I had an amazing view from there!

Palazzo Vecchio

The walled garden in the Palazzo Medici Riccardi. This was a really tranquil and beautiful place.

Florence is a very unique city with so much culture and beauty. I'm happy that I had the chance to see it at least once in my lifetime!
