Sightseeing

Piazzale Michelangelo and S. Miniato Church. From there you can admire all Florence. it's a truly wonderful place! We suggest, if you can, to go there in the late afternoon to visit S. Miniato Church (before it closes) and then, at sunset, get down at Piazzale Michelangelo, so you can see the city on day light and by night (all monuments are lighted - wonderful). You can go there on foot (it's not very close - after Ponte Vecchio follow the turist indication), by bus number 12 or 13 (the stop is at the station).
