Florence, the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance and also one of the most important medieval cities in the country, is considered by many to be one of Italy's most beautiful and cultural cities. Surrounded by the breathtaking Tuscan countryside, the city has a lot to offer its visitors, including numerous quaint piazzas and lanes, the city's inspiring cathedral (Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore), the world-renowned Uffizi Gallery, and of course delicious Tuscan cuisine to mention just a few. Discovering the city has been made even more enjoyable due to the fact that a major part of the historic centre has been pedestrianised.
