Florence, Italy – A UNESCO World Heritage Site Of Famous Renaissance Artwork And History
The Renaissance is alive and well today in Florence. A visit to this beautiful city will present you with new examples of art, culture, and history around every corner, and you will become infused with a feeling of romance that is hard to ignore. As one of the art capitals of the world, Florence is a popular vacation destination. Just remember that you’ll need a passport. Start by going online an filling out an application of passport renewal form.
Going online to handle your passport chores is a relatively new option that has really revolutionized the passport industry. It’s as easy as going on the internet, filling out whatever form applies to you, picking a delivery date, and submitting your application. Online services handle everything from putting new pages in your passport to child passport renewal and so on.
Of course Florence is famous for its Renaissance art, and it can be found everywhere in the city, not just in museums and galleries. In fact, there is a recognized ailment that results from the extreme amounts of awe inspired from seeing all of the amazing art – Stendhal syndrome. Look it up! So, if a sickness associated with overwhelming amounts of art was “discovered” here, then the art is something you don’t want to miss out on. Be sure to visit one of the most famous art galleries in the entire world: the Uffizi Gallery. This gallery houses one of the most famous Italian art collections anywhere. There are often street performances outside the Gallery, and they are definitely part of the experience. The Bargello is the Uffizi but for sculptures, featuring works by Michelangelo, Ammannati, and Donatello.
Art exists as much on the inside of galleries and museums as on the outside. While you might not recognize the titles “Duomo di Firenze” or “Santa Maria del Fiore,” you will definitely recognize it by sight. It’s the very same domed Cathedral you see in many pictures of Italy. Located in close proximity to the Duomo is Giotto’s Tower. Go to the top to get one of the most incredible views of the city you can get. Santa Croce is a famous church that features the tombs of Galileo, Machiavelli, Donatello, and Dante. Be sure not to miss out on the Boboli Gardens. They are beautifully landscaped and there are tons of beautiful statues dotted all across the garden landscape.
No matter what you decide to do on your vacation, remember one very important thing: get gelato, and get it often. While Italy as a whole country is famous for gelato, Florence is reputed to have the best gelato in all of Italy. Definitely stop by Vivoli, a gelato place said to have the best in all of Italy. Also stop by the Mercato Central. The Mercato sells all sorts of different Italian foods – from fresh fruits and veggies to olive oil.
Florence is a city unlike any other. Brimming with culture, delicious food, and romance, Florence is one of those places that can take anyone’s breath away. Just be sure you have your passport. Start by filling out a United States online passport renewal form – there are even ones for childrens passport renewal – and get your adventure started.
